Vegetarian Star

Vegetarian vampires are the happening thing these days, and one vegan vampire wants to get his 15 minutes of blood sucking fame before the fad ends.

Moby, a vegan, is set to play the frontman for a band called, “Secretaries of Steak,” (vegan pun, ha, ha, ha) in the upcoming vampire horror/comedy film Suck.

Suck follows the adventures of a band not doing so hot, but still calls itself The Winners. Their luck changes when they happen to meet a vampire (in the real world these same creatures are called agents) who gives them a chance at rock and roll, as well as other kinds of immortality. Of course, there’s the inevitable blood cravings. The Secretaries of Steak are a rival band to the Winners. Get ’em Moby!

Other notables include meat shunning Henry Rollins, who plays a radio host, Dimitri Coats of the indie band Burning Brides as the vampire, Iggy Pop as music producer, and Alice Cooper as a blood sucking bartender.

Oh, yeah. Can’t wait to watch Moby get his vegan vampire on!

Gordon Ramsay has an on again, off again fondness for vegetarians, and he recently visited a vegan restaurant in Hollywood, Sante La Brea, that was in need of a makeover for an episode of “Kitchen Nightmares” which aired November 20th.

Before we get any further, we’d like point out a serious WTF flaw in the menu. Although they claim to be a vegan restaurant, they serve fish and chicken, something which confused Ramsay, to say the least. Don’t worry Gordon, this confuses us too.

Apparently, the restaurant offers many vegan options on the menu and any entree can be made such by requesting unchicken or tofu. However, there are items with real chicken in tofu sauce, which doesn’t seem to make any sense, but that’s probably one of the reasons why Gordon was there to rescue them.

Here’s the lowdown on what happened:

Gordon is fed a turkey melt, which he is not impressed with and feeds to a dog. Turkey, yuck! Good for him. But he didn’t necessarily have to insult the dog like that.

A plate of tofu with overcooked vegetables and overcooked, lumpy rice does not impress him either. “Shocking. My God!” he exclaimed. Rotten eggplant is just one of the many delightful wonders he finds in the kitchen refrigerator.

Humorous highlights include Ramsay playing a joke on owner Dean Hamoui by having the police handcuff him so he can’t do everyone else’s job, forcing the employees to learn for themselves.

It was a happy ending and Hamoui was quoted in Eater, saying the best thing about working with Ramsay was, “The fact that he fixed things up. There are plenty of problems that I wanted to fix, and when Gordon came he actually put the lid on all those problems—my sons straightened out, Mark [the manager] quit coming with crazy ideas. I needed someone to help me put it back on the map.”

If you’re a vegetarian Chargers fan, congratulations! You can enjoy the game live without having to worry about munching on peanuts or a bland protein bar you brought from home.

Qualcomm Stadium, home to the San Diego Chargers, has been named the friendliest vegetarian NFL stadium by PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

You can stock up before the game and eat until your veggie heart’s content on bean burritos, veggie sushi rolls, vegetable wraps, veggie hot dogs, and Gardenburgers.

Coming in at second place is the McAfee Coliseum, where the Oakland Raiders do their thing on home turf. Choose from veggie hot dogs, veggie burgers, and fruit cups for dessert.

The city of Philadelphia took first place this year for the best veggie baseball stadium, but they’ve come in 3rd place for football with the Eagles’ Lincoln Financial Field offering veggie hot dogs and veggie burgers.

Finally, we all can be ready for some football!
