Vegetarian Star

Vegetarian and animal lover Pink took to Twitter to share some info about dog adoption, in celebration of Puppy Mill Awareness Day.

“Its”puppymill awareness day”and I just got back from the incredible event at La Brea Tar Pits. Chris DeRose is amazing.No more puppy mills!!”

“Puppy mills are awful, filthy, cruel places where dogs never see daylight, sleep in their own feces, and r bred over n over for pet stores.”

“Boycott pet stores people!!!!”

According to the ASPCA, puppy mills got started shortly after World War II, as a way to guarantee cash when widespread crop failures occurred in the midwest. Later in the 70s, puppy brokers on the East Coast in the U.S. convinced Amish farmers to breed dogs to be taken to pet stores and even conducted seminars to teach farmers how to operate breeding facilities.

—David Archuleta, Tweeting the latest good grub from Nashville, TN. Sure would love to know where he got the beet pastries, but whether you live in Nashville or not, you can try beet muffins in your own kitchen with this simple recipe.

Elizabeth Hurley has made herself famous for her fantastic statements and gestures of health for people and animals.

As Borat would say, “NOT!”

From her “healthy” organic dinners containing meat, to admitting her love for beef jerky and other processed meats, and revealing too much information about sex on a dead animal by the fireplace, she never seems to impress. Lately, she’s mouthing off on Twitter about how breakfast isn’t necessary for adults, even if the doctors say so.

There’s no shortage of vegetarian cookbooks out there, but if you happen to find a book designed for omnivores that looks interesting, a fun task to attempt might be to see how you can vegetize or veganize the recipes with substitutions.

Kate Nash loves Jamie Oliver‘s Ministry of Food and finds no problem in swapping Quorn faux meat for mince in the lasagna recipe.

“I chose Jamie’s lasagne as my favourite recipe because I love Italian food and this is a really easy recipe to adapt,” Nash told The Guardian. “In this recipe I swap mince for Quorn mince, use lactose-free cheese and spelt pasta and it still works.”

Caroline Manzo of the Real Housewives of New Jersey recently looked in her backyard to discover a black bear relieving himself.

Her son, Joey, sent out a Tweet expressing his irritation with the trespasser, “Hellloooo bear in front yard” and “For those of u who ask, a bear doesn’t poop in the woods…it prefers my front yard.” However, Joey didn’t stop at that as Caroline told CNN a few nights ago her son was begging her husband to shoot it.

Her husband’s response, according to Caroline, was, “I’m not going to shoot it. It’s a beautiful animal. It’s just hungry.”

Well, technically it was probably full if it had to get rid of something, but…Mr. Manzo is the man of the month!

He realizes what groups like the Humane Society and the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife are trying to get across to the public. Bears and humans can get along.
