Vegetarian Star

Avatar and Lost actress Michelle Rodriguez will be joining Sea Shepherd on an anti-whaling voyage in the future. Rodriguez made the announcement at the organization’s “Sea No Evil” fundraiser.

“I’m going to go on the next voyage,” she said. “So you guys are actually helping to support the next team to go out to Antarctica and bust their asses on that ship, trying to save some whales. So, I’m going to be one of those people on board.”

The actual length of time she’ll spend on the voyage is unknown, and as Ecorazzi points out, Daryl Hannah‘s trip was reduced significantly because the actress had a conflict. According to Rodriguez’s Internet Movie Database profile, she’s known for her “tough girl” roles in films. Her stint with Sea Shepherd may be her biggest kick butt part ever.

Rodriguez can be seen at the Sea No Evil event making her announcement below:

“It’s certainly putting veganism, veganity we call it in this movie, the vegan lifestyle is put out there. Todd isn’t necessarily the nicest promoter of the vegan lifestyle but it speaks well of it to say that you get the power of telekinesis and superpowers because you’re more clear, you’re more healthy, all of those things. So I think that they all have a good sense of humor.”

–Brandon Routh, on how he thinks vegans react to the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World movie in which he plays a vegan ex boyfriend who uses superpowers the diet gives him to fight Scott Pilgrim.

Be on the lookout for Mario Batali‘s upcoming cookbooks. He’s getting ready to roll one out that practices meatless on every page.

When Detroit Free Press asked the chef if fans see a vegetarian cookbook in the works, Batali answered, “Yes, you do — and that’s a scoop.”

The new book may be part of Batali’s need to teach cooking and eating responsibly, as he mentioned that his motivations for reducing meat are greatly environmental.

Martha Stewart "Dog Fancy"

Yes, you read right. Today’s Meatless Monday recipe was designed to be enjoyed by those with four legs. Since Martha Stewart will be the first human featured on the October 2010 cover of Dog Fancy, which includes a special section about dog adoption, we thought we’d share a pet food recipe for Martha Stewart’s Blueberry Dog Biscuits that doesn’t involve killing another animal.

Since there’s only one egg, these vegetarian biscuits can easily be made vegan. Plus, the goodness of organic blueberry, quinoa flour, oat flour and flax meal might make you tempted to reward yourself with a “treat.”

These were shared from the associate food producer from The Martha Stewart Show, which she received from her mother, who bakes them for the family’s dogs.
