Vegetarian Star

Uh-uh. No real meat’s getting in my concert area. 

When we told you Chrissie Hynde performed in the outdoor area of a barbecue joint in Texas, we mentioned there were vegetarian tamales for sale.

Now, we are finding out a little more about the food situation. Apparently, the restaurant managers respected Chrissie’s wishes and only served roasted “wheat” sandwiches (sounds like seitan) and vegetarian tamales outside where the concert took place.

Awesome that Chrissie was able to spread the news both by word of mouth and what people put in their mouth. Of course, not everyone was happy.

“You know, I don’t know,” said one concert goer named Debbie, when asked what a wheat roast sandwich was. “I’m grateful that it was dark enough that I didn’t have to inspect it too carefully. It tasted so bad. In fact, I thought today (Monday) I’d get on the Internet and see what the hell I put in my mouth last night (Sunday night).”

Some might tell Debbie that any meat she eats should probably be inspected a heck of a lot more than any wheat sandwich, considering the hormones pumped into animals, the sickly condition of some animals that are still slaughtered, and the number of e.coli cases occurring every year from tainted product.

“We told the people that if they prefer to have barbecue they had a full line of barbecue in the restaurant, if that’s why they so chose,” said Ryan Garrett, Stubb’s venue manager. “We love the Pretenders and we want to have them back. We can’t have a negative spin on this.”

“We just respected her because we want her to come back, and at the same time offered our patrons barbecue items in bulk in our restaurant,” he added.
