No your favorite Phish bass player didn’t get arrested, he just had some vegetarian dinner in Portland, Maine recently.

The Green Elephant Vegetarian Bistro couldn’t wait to post on Facebook that they had the pleasure of serving the musician.

“the green elephant vegetarian bistro Proudly served Mike Gordon of Phish this evening!!!”

We’re sure they wouldn’t mind serving you too if you walked in and ordered something.

For lunch, we suggest the Soy Meat and Herb Salad or Tofu Tikka Masala.

If you’re still not full, stick around for the dinner menu and try the Vegan King Oyster Mushroom Tempura or the Veggie Tuna Salad.

Stella McCartney Enjoys Animal-Free Clothing Demand With Gucci

Stella McCartney in Berlin, Germany

Recession? Ha! What recession?

The demand for Stella McCartney‘s leather free items from Stella McCartney Ltd. has caused her sales to soar and given Stella reason to increase her salary by 60% thanks to a 70% raise in profits.

According to This Is London, fashion insiders say lifelong vegetarian Stella’s reputation for refusing to use fur and leather in her designs, which include clothing, shoes and handbags, and the demand for cruelty-free items is responsible for the financial celebration.

Stella left a French label, Chloe in 2001 to set up her fashion label with Gucci, but didn’t make profits until 2006.

It was rumored that the big wigs at Gucci were growing impatient with the slower than expected success.

Bet all are happy in the executive office now.

It pays to stick with your values.

Jake Gyllenhaal and Mike White lunchtime!

Jake Gyllenhaal is in the city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania filming Love And Other Drugs and lots of Jake sightings have been made by fans, with a few vegetarian rumors floating around here and there.

Jake entered the Make Your Mark Artspace and Coffee House, but they weren’t technically open for lunch yet.

“It was right before lunch, and we weren’t ready yet,” said Ms. Siebert, who runs Make Your Mark with husband Hemi Braunstein.

Unfortunately, her silly husband didn’t know he was supposed to make a vegetarian lunch on the spot for the superstar.

“My husband doesn’t know a superstar from the next guy. If someone else had been behind the counter, we would have opened up the kitchen,” Siebert said.

“We hope he comes back. I’ve heard he is a vegetarian and eats kind of healthy, and that’s what we’re all about,” she added.

You can grab a vegetarian entree at Make Your Mark during lunch hours, regardless of your celebrity status.

These days Canadian rock star Bryan Adams is a vegan who juices regularly and is into raw foods.

But years ago, when he lived in Vancouver, he would frequent a pizza place called Lombardo’s Pizzeria & Ristorante, where he would order what he called “the best pizza in the world.”

“Bryan Adams lives in London now, but he used to come all the time,” Patti Lombardo says. “He used to come Tuesday or Wednesday evening at about 10 p.m., when there were no crowds to bother him. He’s a vegetarian, so he would get a mushroom pizza. He’d sit there and go, ‘You know what? This is the best pizza in the world.’ ”

Lombardo’s is known for its wood-oven-fired pizza and features several pizzas, calzones, and pasta dishes that are vegetarian on the menu.
