Vegetarian Star

David Chang of "Momofuku"

David Chang, chef and owner of Momofuku Noodle Bar in New York, as well as other chefs, may be getting tired of your requests for vegetarian dishes to be made separately from meat ones.

In an article in the New York Post, chefs who are fed up with catering to customers’ demands are discussed, as well as their reactions, which include ignoring the requests, even at the expense of losing a customer.

It’s rumored that Chang got so tired of vegetarians complaining of the lack of options, he permanently changed the menu to reflect more meat than before.

Anthony Bourdain, who’s normally tickled pink by vegetarians too, by the way, gave the dish.

Jack Johnson "To The Sea"

Jack Johnson‘s latest release, To The Sea, is part of a package, literally, of environmental activities to accompany his tour for the album.

To The Sea is printed on 100% post-consumer-waste recycled paper and carries the 1% For The Planet logo, which means Johnson has pledged to give 1% of net sales to causes that preserve and restore the Earth.

The veggie Hawaiian laulua lover who says although he keeps his home meat-free, he’ll eat anything someone feeds him outside, is ensuring his crew eats using ingredients from local, organic farmers whenever possible. He has also partnered with Johnson’s All At Once Community, which aims to educate fans on eating local.

Sarah Silverman "The Bedwetter"

PETA is kicking off the annual World’s Sexiest Vegetarian contest and funny former bedwetter Sarah Silverman has some stiff competition, competing against the likes of women like Alicia Silverstone, Lea Michele and Erykah Badu.

Who doesn’t love a woman who can throw humor into a poignant story that involved slaughtering animals, which ultimately caused her to give them up?

From her book, The Bedwetter, Silverman writes on the experience of watching a turkey being killed on a neighbor’s farm:

“Without realizing it, I had sentenced that turkey to death, and while maybe this sort of thing gave fat British monarchs a rush, to me it was horrifying.”

"Meat is for Pussies" John Joseph

Meat Is For Pussies by punk rocker John Joseph has already gained the attention of several notables in the vegetarian community. Serving as no-nonsense advice for getting healthy and removing the junk from your body, Joseph’s book emphasizes that the only wimpy men out there are the ones still grabbing a double-double for dinner. Here’s what others have to say:

Rory Freedman, co-author of Skinny Bitch:
“Meat is for Pussies will completely transform your mind, body, and life. It’ll also score you major ass with hot vegan chicks.”

Moby:
“I’m really glad that John Joseph is finally showing that vegans are some of the strongest, healthiest, and toughest people on the planet. I mean, everyone wants to be thin and healthy and live long lives, but people still eat meat? That’s insane.”

The dress code for the amfAR Inspiration Gala last week at the New York Public Library was black tie/black leather.

New York magazine asked Cyndi Lauper if she followed the code of real or fake leather, to which the 80s pop icon replied, “Oh, fake leather and real leather. You’re always looking to see which one is less hot. Like, temperature hot. I eat meat; I’m not a vegetarian. Do I think animals are treated badly? Yes, and it’s awful. But I do eat it, and I wear real leather.”

Whether it’s 90 degrees or 9, real leather is as old as Lauper’s first MTV video, but thankfully, you don’t have to be stuck in the 80s with so many leather alternatives, as an extensive database listing retail sources for many accessories, including fake leather shoes, guitar straps, computer cases, biking gloves and even sports balls exists.

In a sad tale of a couple you never thought you’d see split, Al Gore and wife Tipper have called it off after 40 years of marriage.

As handsome as Al is, he’ll surely have no problem getting dates in the future if he chooses to, but PETA has taken the opportunity to remind him that all the sexy Democratic ladies forgo meat.

“You are already aware of the environmental damage caused by animal agriculture, and you recently stated that you are reducing your meat consumption. This is a small but important step. Now that you’re single again and presumably considering dating, you may also be looking for a way to slim down. May we recommend kicking the meat and milk habit entirely and going vegan, which is not only one of the best ways to fight climate change but is also one of the best ways to shed unwanted pounds?”

Natalie Portman received a pair of vegan shoes from Indian designer Rina Shah for her 29th birthday, which happens to be today.

“I chose Portman for this because she has been a long-time supporter of animal rights,” said Shah.

“The shoes sent to Natalie are inspired by Cinderella’s glass slippers, adorned with Swarovski crystals.”

The stars of Babies are Ponijao from Opuwo, Namibia; Mari from Tokyo, Japan; Bayar from Bayanchandmani, Mongolia; and Hattie from San Francisco, USA.

Hattie is the child of two vegetarian parents who are very much into green living.
