Vegetarian Star

“I started it a couple years ago as a portal for people to have access to inspiration, information goods and services. Whenever I learn something and I go “What? Why didn’t anyone ever tell me before?” I put it on there. It’s all information I get excited about and I want other people to know. It’s all based on ethical lifestyle choices.”

—Daryl Hannah, on her way to a sustainable fuels event, on why she started her website, dhlovelife, which unlike other love lives, is never filled with Too Much Information about vegetarian and environmental issues.

Guy Fieri has just finished wrapping up an episode of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives at the Nickel Diner in Los Angeles, California.

The diner is not vegetarian, but does feature some very vegetarian friendly items on its menu.

For breakfast, the “For Animal Lovers” dish contains tofu scramble with spinach, roasted garlic, sweet peppers, beans and optional goat cheese, and the “Vegan Ranchero” consists of fried tofu on a bed of beans, soy cheese, avocado, salsa, with corn tortillasa.

Lunch can satisfy you with the “Grilled Veggie” with vegetables like eggplant, zucchini and carmelized onions with mozzarella on bread or the “Stuffed Avocado” with quinoa salad.

For dinner, why not try the vegan chili with soy cheese and avocado?

All are under $10 and let’s hope they remain on the menu by the time the show broadcasts at 10PM on Monday, October 19.

Fieri himself probably stayed away from those dishes, considering he claims the vegan, macrobiotic meals his parents served him as a child scarred him for life, forcing him to ask in adulthood if bacon could count as a vegetable.

Not in most places, but maybe in the school systems where Jamie Oliver is forced to follow those pesky USDA rules.

Tori Spelling revealed 25 Things You Don’t Know About Me to Us Magazine, and several of these secrets lead us to believe Spelling has the potential to be both a great animal activist and vegetarian.

For example, she works with rescue animals and took in cats–even though they make her sneeze!:
“I’m allergic to cats, but I had three of them for years because they’re supercute and I work with rescue animals.”

She wants to open her own animal sanctuary up one day:
“One day, I want to open an animal sanctuary to house all the homeless, unwanted and abandoned animals.”

If we can’t get her off meat completely, she’d likely do well as a pescatarian:
“Could live on sushi and be really happy!”

She’s got that small farmer, grow you own mentality:
“I dream of living on a farm. I want chickens, goats, cows and horses! We want to grow our own veggies and fruits and make our own milk and cheese!”

Vegetarian Star suggests Tori make her own vegan cheese.

Martina Navratilova has been diagnosed with breast cancer, but her prognosis is positive.

Getting in the bad habit of missing regular breast exams, Navratilova said another missed year could have been costly.

“I went four years between mammograms. I let it slide. Everyone gets busy, but don’t make excuses,” she said.

“I stay in shape and eat right, and it happened to me. Another year and I could have been in big trouble.”

Navratilova has been involved with animal activism and was a complete vegetarian for many years before adding fish to her diet.

Following a vegetarian diet that includes plenty of fruits and vegetables rich in beta-carotene may increase the chances of survival if a diagnoses of breast cancer is obtained.

When researchers divided Australian women diagnosed with breast cancer into three groups based on the amount of beta-carotene containing fruits and vegetables they consumed, the group with the highest beta-carotene consumption experienced the fewest deaths over six years, while the group with the lowest experienced the most.

One possible explanation for this is that in the digestive tract, beta-carotene is converted to Vitamin A, which is then converted to retinoic acid, which has demonstrated anti-cancer effects on cells.

Alicia Silverstone‘s husband Christopher Jarecki temporarily took over her blog, The Kind Life, to write about their rescue dogs while Alicia was away on stage in New York.

All four of the couple’s dogs, The Pig, Lacey, Sampson, and Sweety are rescued, and Christopher shares a bed with The Pig, a bulldog.

“I know that some of you are aware of the benefits of rescuing dogs and avoiding breeders and pet stores,” writes Christopher. ” But if there are any of you who aren’t quite sure why rescuing is so much better than buying a dog, let me know and I can do a whole blog about it.”

Will there be a regular animal segment of The Kind Life coming soon, thanks to the hubby?

Ellen DeGeneres Comic Book. Bluewater Productions

The U.S. Sportmen’s Alliance is at it again, targeting celebrities who are benefiting the Humane Society of the United States.

Last year, Carrie Undewood was criticized for donating proceeds from her American Idol elimination track “Home Sweet Home” to the organization.

This year, Ellen DeGeneres and Bluewater Comics are the bull’s-eyes.

The group wrote to the company that is producing Ellen’s Female Force comic book detailing her life, because a portion of its proceeds are going to the Humane Society as well.

“As the producer of this comic, we respectfully ask that you consider severing the relationship you have established with HSUS,” Alliance president and chief executive officer Walter P. Pidgeon wrote in an email provided to E! Online by Bluewater.

A Bluewater representative wrote back, saying it would not comply with the Alliance’s request.

“While we respect your right to disagree with the goals of The Humane Society of the United States,” a Bluewater rep said, “we do not share your concerns about the organization.”

Martha Stewart hosted actress Andie MacDowell on a recent episode of The Martha Stewart Show to make a completely vegetarian dish.

Broiled black pepper tofu with soy lemon dipping sauce, soba noodles with vegetables and mint, and baked apricots with almond topping for dessert was on Martha’s menu for Thursday, which is described on her website.

“This vegetarian meal tastes exotic but is surprisingly simple. Tofu broiled in a pepper marinade is served with a tangy lemon- and ginger-flecked sauce. Soba noodles with carrots and sugar snap peas are healthful and satisfying.”

Keeping the meal healthy, dessert consists of fresh fruit lightly sprinkled with brown sugar and topped with almonds.

You may grab the recipes for all components of the meal at Martha Stewart.

Whale Wars Season 3 Promo Poster

Animal Planet has released the Whale Wars season 3 promotional poster featuring Australian director of Sea Shepherd, Jeff Hansen, who Ecorazzi thinks is a look alike for Pete Bethune.

Bethune was not available to pose for the poster though, as he is being held in Japan on charges of “trespassing, causing injuries, obstructing commercial activities, vandalism and carrying a weapon.”

Bethune was taken into custody after boarding ship Shonan Maru 2 in an attempt to make a citizen’s arrest of its captain.
