A little update on that vegetarian sushi roll named after season 5 winner of Project Runway, Leanne Marshall. Although previous reports said Marshall had created the roll herself, The Portland Mercury is reporting the roll was already on the menu, and H50 Bistro & Bar simply named it after her, once she described what she looks for in a sushi roll.

Marshall said, “Basically, I told him that I normally go for vegetarian/non-fish sushi and then my favorite things: avocado, hot sauce, cilantro (and then listed pretty much all the ingredients to make a burrito. Ha!) As long as it had avocado and something spicy, I left the rest up to the professional chef. If it were me making it, yes, I would probably have tried to make burrito-sushi, and it would likely be a disaster!”

A picture of the burrito-sushi can be viewed below.

Michelle Obama hosted several celebrities chefs at the White House garden, including Rachael Ray and Cat Cora, to harvest vegetables with school children to prepare a meal for the group to eat. Unfortunately, not every part of the meal was vegetarian, but the First Lady encouraged the chefs to help schools nationwide plant gardens.

About 900 chefs are signed up in the “Chefs Move to Schools” program, which pairs chefs with school communities to teach children and parents cooking skills and nutrition.

“You know more about food than almost anyone, other than the grandmas, and you’ve got the visibility and the enthusiasm to match that knowledge,” said Mrs. Obama during a speech.

The actual footage of the chefs and children harvesting vegetables from the garden takes place around minute 19:00.

Aziz Ansari, star of the NBC comedy Parks and Recreation will be hosting this year’s MTV Movie Awards. From an interview with the New York Times, it sounds as if Ansari might be a vegan.

“Mr. Ansari made no apologies to the crowd at the theater, where the $5 tickets were cheaper and the jokes more meandering than they would be at those future gigs. As he had said that afternoon over lunch at a vegan restaurant in the Silver Lake neighborhood, “I even tell the audience, ‘You’re getting an inferior version of the joke so, I can work on it myself.”

Here’s a video from the Funny or Die series with Sarah Silverman, P. Diddy and other celebrities discussing Aziz’s life and the “struggles” he’s had to endure before rising to stardom to host the MTV Movie Awards.
