Vegetarian Star

It’s October and that means Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Fitsugar.com has compiled a slideshow of 10 celebrity breast cancer survivors, and two of the ladies are vegetarian favorites, Melissa Etheridge and Christina Applegate.

Doctors found a lump in Melissa’s breast in 2004 and she sought chemo and radiation treatment, performing bald at a Janis Joplin tribute in 2005.

After Christina Applegate’s breast cancer was detected, she decided to remove both breasts and treated herself to a brand new pair of manufactured boobs after her surgeries.

As we’ve cited before, vegetarians tend to have lower death rates from cancer than meat eaters.

Moby arrived in Mexico City as part of his recent tour and said la comida is bueno!

“just arrived in mexico city. and just had tortillas y frijoles negros y guacamole. see, it’s easy to be vegan in mexico. well, as long as they don’t get crazy with the manteca.”

Yes, when in Mexico, pile on the heart healthy and fiber filled black beans on the tortillas with plenty of salsa and good for you fat avocado.

Just say “no, gracias” to the manteca, which is fat, many times lard in Mexican dishes.

If you can’t make it to Mexico City, you can at least make it to your grocer’s freezer, where you’ll find several frozen Amy’s Mexican entrees like Burritos and Wraps, or Black Bean Enchilada and Black Bean Tamale Verde.

Stella McCartney is turning into Morrissey and dictating what her employees can eat on the job.

The web is circulating with stories that Stella bans tuna and other seafood from her offices because she doesn’t want people to think she’s eating animals.

“Sometimes, at lunchtime, I can really smell fish when people are eating, and then I’ll shout, ‘OK guys, enough fish.’ My argument is, if a journalist comes into our office and it stinks of fish, that’s weird.”

If that’s true, is Stella banning all meat from her offices? If not, shouldn’t she be?

Fellow Brit Morrissey prohibits any consumption of animal food while on tour and when an employee asked if fish were okay, he replied, “Sea food is sea life,” and the same rules applied.

Bet more vegs wished they could ban their co-workers from meat, especially when the office microwave starts churning at lunchtime.

Ew. Is that beef stew again?

“There’s no bigger pain anywhere in the world than a vegetarian”

—Gordon Ramsay, on a recent episode of Hell’s Kitchen where the contestants had to make vegetarian dishes for 80 school children.

Ramsay can’t make up his mind. First, he’d rather electrocute his kids than see them go veg. Then claims his beef (pun intended) was never with vegetarians, just the chefs who didn’t know how to cook for them. At present, vegetarians are pains in the arses. More updates to come.

If you’ve ever watched The Biggest Loser and wished you could have your very own personal Bob Harper cheering you on your fitness goals, here’s your chance.

Bob and The Grain Council are giving you the opportunity to win a trip to LA to see Bob and have a one on one training session with the nationally recognized fitness instructor.

Bob says everyone should have at least 6 servings of grains a day, with three of those being whole grains.

“One of the main things I tell people is that you’ve got to get your fruits, your vegetables and your grains every day,” Bob told Thatsfit.com. “Every morning I’m going to have my oatmeal; I’m going to have my fruits. For lunch I have brown rice and black beans. I always have Melba toast. Melba toast seems like an old lady thing to eat but I’m getting my servings of grain from that. Then dinner is always going be plenty of vegetables because I’m a vegetarian.”

Be an old lady like Bob and get yourself some grains!

Put whole grains like barley, brown rice, buckwheat, bulgur, millet, oatmeal and popcorn on your next shopping list.

And enter the Grain Council contest from now until October 27.

For more information on grains, visit gowiththegrain.org.

Helen Flanagan was seen walking around Granada Studios in Manchester recently.

Helen plays Rosie Webster on Coronation Street, the longest running and most watched soap opera on British television.

If you’ve ever watched soap operas, you might get a laugh here and there, because, although entertaining, let’s face it-some of that acting is incredibly fake (not to mention you could have children and grandchildren before one storyline is complete).

Which is why we hope Helen was faking when she wore this furry jacket.

Animals have “One Life To Live” and they really should live it out to the fullest and not be skinned and killed prematurely for a coat.

Take a look and tell us what you think.

Is Helen fur real or fur fake?
