“I chose to be vegan initially as an energetic pursuit, as meat and dairy slowed me down, but have since become convinced that it is not only the most healthy way to live, but also the most compassionate and ecologically responsible way.”

Woody Harrelson, a World Go Vegan Week supporter.

World Go Vegan Week is celebrating it’s 4th annual holiday this year from October 25-31. The week is meant to encourage others to engage in a sustainable healthy lifestyle and incorporate vegan principles into their living.

World Go Vegan Week suggests doing various things doing the week to promote veganism such as asking your local grocery store to offer samples of vegan food.

Although some vegetarian celebrities have reported difficulty finding food in some countries, Propagandhi front man Chris Hannah says the exact opposite has been true for his traveling abroad experiences.

“The staple foods in most cultures are plant-based and then they add animal products on top of that, so I’ve never had trouble. If you’re not the type of person that defaults to processed junk food, if you enjoy and eat fresh fruit and vegetables, they’re everywhere on the planet. Outside of the extremes of Antarctica and the Arctic, there’s something to eat.”

And now with cool veggie technology like the iphone application VegOut, it’s never been easier to find the restaurant that serves what you’re looking for.

There may even be a tofu stand in Antarctica somewhere.

The best part about Twitter is getting to update about the good grub you’ve devoured.

Biz Stone, co-founder of Twitter, recently did this about a homemade meal his wife cooked.

“Wow, @Livia just took her homemade vegan lasagna out of the oven — I’m hungry!”

Here’s the finished product.

This puzzle us, because last time we checked, Biz was a vegan.

Is that soy cheese on the lasagna?

Boy George at Maya Nightclub

We already knew Boy George made all the vegetarian food in prison during his stint he served for false imprisonment and assault of a male escort.

Maybe that’s why they were so nice to him.

“You get a lot of attention when you first go in, especially if you’re Boy George,” George said. “But, in a funny sort of way, people were actually quite sweet; people would come up to me and say, ‘Do you need a tooth brush, a mirror?’ There’s some nice people in prison!”

There were even some people paying homage to the Culture Club king, who’s real name is George O’Dowd.

“When you walk in, you’ve got the balconies, the safety nets, people shouting Karma Chameleon, banging things.”

“You think, ‘How am I going to make this work for me?’ I got a job in the kitchen, made the vegetarian food. The more you do that, the quicker it (the sentence) goes. They probably thought I was going to be a complete nightmare.”

If you’re heading to prison anytime soon, ask the judge to send you to one of the top 10 vegetarian friendly prisons.

Otherwise, you might end up in the kitchen like Boy George cooking for yourself.
