Vegetarians need a symbol. Sure, you might find a circled “V” on food products meaning they’re veggie or vegan, but we need an official law which will denote items as lacto-ovo, vegan and so forth. Being vegetarian means you stand for a lot of things. Essentially, it’s the symbol good health, good food, animal rights and a healthy environment.

Kesha’s (K$sha) got a symbol in her name. Prince used to be a symbol. Between the two vegetarians, who would you rather…

Chrissie Hynde has revealed to Vogue more details on her ethical clothing line she’s launching with fellow musician and band member JP Jones.

Fairground Luck will contain no animal skins, and was inspired by her friend, singer/musician and vegetarian Emmylou Harris.

The line is designed for musicians, but it sounds as if the t-shirts, skinny jeans, faux leather jackets and cowboy boots could be worn by anyone with a love for rocker/country fashion who makes conscious choices about products.

“Like most women, I love fashion and clothes,” said Hynde. “I love handbags and shoes. Everybody will be able to find everything they love in a non-leather version. Fashion should be fun.”

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.”
