Orlando Jones: Pain In The Butt Raw Vegan
Written by Vegetarian Star on March 2nd, 2009 in Actors, Comedians.
Orlando Jones, actor from Madtv and 7Up commercials, isn’t just any vegan. He’s one of those pain in the butt raw vegans.
“I’m like vegan raw so I’m really a pain in the butt about what I eat,” he told Parade Magazine. “I’ve been pursuing it actively for 14 years.”
He’s making his next television appearance as a regular on CBS’ Rules of Engagement and he might be able to offer the cast some tips on a delicious vegan meal now and then, like this tomato pasta soup he recommended:
“Take some tomato soup and season it until it’s perfect for your taste buds. Then add your pasta and cook it Sicilian style in the soup so it doesn’t absorb any water. You don’t need any sauce. That’s what is really fantastic about it. People look for the sauce and you tell them it’s already in there.”
Although he obviously gets in the kitchen regularly, he’s not a big fan of television cooking shows, yet admits Emeril Lagasse makes him laugh because he’s always telling people to add more fat and grease to their food.
“I’m like, ‘Dude, you are just trying to make people explode.’”
