Kathy Freston blogged about the benefits of skipping chicken once a week on the environment and Vienna Teng is living that example.
During a recent interview with laist.com, the New York based pianist and singer-songwriter said she finds it hard to be a complete vegetarian (she says she loves Southern fried chicken too much), but agrees with the principles and tries to flex when possible.
“I don’t know LA all that well, but I do love this vegan restaurant, Real Food Daily, in Santa Monica. When I was recording Dreaming Through the Noise, I randomly decided that I was going to be a vegetarian. I basically agree with vegetarianism in principle but I don’t have the willpower to do it long-term. I’ve just been trying to do it in short stretches, and that was one of them. So when I was recording that album in Santa Monica, I probably went to RFD five times a week. I love their bacon cheeseburger!”
Here’s Vienna in her music video “Gravity,” from the album, Waking Hour.

She has a heavenly voice. Thanks for posting this. I’ve just youtubed and googled her and I will be buying her CD in the future.
That’s what I like about your site.
Not only do you post information about vegetarian issues, but I learn something else every time.
Keep up the good work!
