Corey And Alicia Taylor Detail New Plant-Based Taco Truck Project
The Taylors are going to be venturing into the world of plant-based food, having recently converted to the lifestyle themselves.
After Alicia Taylor teased a "completely new project" with husband Corey back in mid-March, the pair have now gone into more detail about the direction of this new joint venture, revealing that they're working on a plant-based food truck together.
In a new video interview with Rock Feed while isolating at their home, the couple reveal how their lives have been impacted by coronavirus with respective tours being cancelled and postponed – including a trip to Atlanta "to do a taste test for a food truck that we're starting", according to the Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman.

Though he seemingly accidentally spills the beans here, Corey and Alicia nevertheless continue to discuss their ideas for this truck, revealing that it was the plan to actually have it at their shows.
"It was basically a [plant-based] taco food truck. We can't say vegan," Corey says. "There will be some dairy and some stuff in there, but the main focus was flavour – not just content. People talk about vegan and they can become very pretentious. For us, it's just about, 'Look, we're fat-asses, man, we just wanna eat! We want some fucking food!' This was a way for us to combine that with a healthier lifestyle."
"Because a lot of people don't know this: we went plant-based in August/September," adds Alicia. "And we saw the benefits immediately."
Check out the full interview below – with the food truck reveal coming in at around 21 minutes.
While the world might have to wait a little longer now to sample Corey and Alicia's new plant-based tacos, it's safe to say when they finally can taste ’em, they certainly won't spit it out…
Corey also has a solo album on the way, telling Kerrang! last year, “I’ve got about 26 songs written for it. It’s going to be the best ’90s album ever. That’s the only way I can really describe it. Some of it is a reflection of being sick and tired of this nutless rock’n’roll I’ve seen lately that is real soft. I like my rock’n’roll to kick me in the fucking nuts. That’s just me, though, I’m a fucking dick!
“Other than that, I wrote a script for a horror movie that I’m really stoked about. And I just broke the skin on book five, so I’m working on that as well. I’ve got a lot of things going on, but I’m also making sure there’s plenty of time for my family, my marriage and home. God knows, you never know how much time you’re gonna get there.”
