Vegetarian Star

“My thing is this – everything has to be able to be done with some kind of commitment and passion, and some reason that isn’t blown out of proportion and taken for granted.”

—Chuck D of Public Enemy during an interview with The Vine. Chuck eats a more sustainable diet by being a fish-eating vegetarian and he also is a human and animal rights activist.

If you follow the pescatarian diet, you should know, scientists have shown fish feel pain too. If you are still comfortable with your decision, please choose seafood wisely, eating only varieties that are not overfished and contain the least amount of unhealthy toxins like mercury.

Vegan Cookie Monster Thief Suspect

Cookie Monster should stop looking for his wife near Oscar’s can and instead head over to NYC’s One Lucky Duck vegan eatery.

According to the New York Post, the manager there claims a woman has tried to rob him of his vegan, organic cookies twice during the past month. Arriving on a scooter, the woman first hit him with her foot-powered vehicle and then tried to spray him with Mace.

These gingerbread cookies she is after must be good, because the last time she attempted to steal them, she yelled, “F*ck you! I’ll be back every day! You can count on it,” before escaping.

What We Like: The use of non-motorized vehicle as the getaway instrument. An idling getaway car wastes gas and puts toxic emissions into the air.

What We Hate: Stealing is never cool, especially from establishments that are trying to do the right thing by providing, animal and earth-friendly goods. Reward these places by paying for your cookies before taking off on your scooter.

It’s your choice whether or not to use profanity to indicate you’ll be a returning customer.

Women's Health November 2010

Women’s Health Magazine has chosen Eden Organic 100% Whole Grain Udon Pasta as one of the 125 best foods for women, named in the magazine’s November 2010 issue.

The noodles were a top pick in the category of “Pasta and Rice” in the annual feature.

Eden Organic 100% Whole Grain Udon Noodles

Women’s Health wrote, “With 15 percent of your daily dose of iron, zinc, and niacin, plus 20 percent of your day’s thiamin, phosphorus, and magnesium, Eden’s Japanese noodle puts others to shame,” adding that there was “no need to fear these carbs.”

“Mad Men” actor Vincent Kartheiser is a model in living green in the strictest sense. When he needs to use the restroom, he must rely on the neighbor’s toilet because he doesn’t own one. He’s also a vegetarian, avoids driving and does not plan to have children. Is he a “mad man” for doing all these things?

In an interview with the Huffington Post, Kartheiser explained his car flooded, and while waiting for insurance to take care of issues, he started to take the bus and train.

“I found that it enriched my life. It actually made my life better to slow down a little bit and walk through the city and interact with people that I usually kind of speed by on the freeway.”

As for the bathroom issue, he says he eventually will get a toilet.

“My house is just a wooden box. I mean I am planning to get a toilet at some point. But for now I have to go to the neighbours. I threw it all out.”

Vincent will probably be investigating eco-friendly toilets, such as tankless systems or those that adjust the level of water with the volume of material being flushed down.

Kudos to the neighbors for letting him use theirs. Who would be willing to let this happen when your fellow vegetarian who just finished a bowl of beans, lentils and other fibrous material comes over with the “urgent” need to use your tank?

Watch the video from the Huffington Post below.

Bethenny Frankel is unveiling holiday greeting cards she’s created using templates from Cafe Press, a company specializing in custom printed products and holiday gifts. Each week, Bethenny will feature a card she created using one of Cafe Press’ templates. Recently, Bethenny created a card using a template that benefits the animals rights group PETA.

“I’m so excited about my CafePress family holiday card and invite to my second-annual tree trimming party. I’m a huge supporter of PETA, so I love that my design benefits their organization. I used a photo of my first child, Cookie aka dabooboo, and I’m sending it to friends, family and business contacts to spread holiday cheer. I chose the invitation design and added in the party details which only took two minutes!”

Anyone wishing to create their personalized card can do so at Cafe Press and choose their charity of choice that will benefit, which includes Greenpeace, Breastcancer.org., Operation Gratitude and Rock The Vote.
