Morrissey

Morrissey said he’d consider consuming his genitals before getting back with The Smiths’ band member Johnny Marr for a reunion.

“I’d rather eat my own testicles than reform The Smiths – and that’s saying something coming from a vegetarian,” the Meat is Murder singer said.

Now Morrissey has an even better offer that would allow him to avoid eating flesh, stay vegetarian and turn the entire Coachella event in Indio, California meatless too.

Moby

Moby thinks omnivores and vegetarians can live happily ever after.

At least in today’s times.

Vegan musician and activist gave his thoughts to the New York Times about how different it was for mixed eaters to share the same restaurant due to lack of options on both dieting community’s parts.

No vegan was going to settle for chicken wings. But most omnivores didn’t find the kale krunch plate to be the most appetizing either.

Amanda Cohen On Changing Cookbook Values And The Internet

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, September 25th, 2012 in Chefs, Food & Drink.

Dirt Candy A Cookbook

Amanda Cohen has a brand new cookbook out with more than just recipes. There are also illustrations, comics and musings about the restaurant industry.

According to the owner and chef at NYC’s vegetable restaurant Dirt Candy, such a diverse selection of material is needed to make a cookbook more valuable these days as the Internet has given them some competition.

“For me, the internet has changed the whole recipe delivery system,” Cohen told Blisstree. “When I’m looking for versions of a recipe I go online first, not to my bookshelf. A cookbook can’t just list a bunch of recipes and have that be enough anymore. Maybe as an artifact, but it’s not a useful book.”

Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan has made the official announcement he’s no longer adhering to a 100% vegan diet.

The WWE athlete claims this is no longer feasible because he’s develop soy sensitivities.

“I became a vegan for health issues and then I developed a soy intolerance. So, I’ve been getting really sick lately. it’s a very unmanly way to stop being vegan, to have a soy intolerance. [Laughs.] But I was getting sick all the time, and they were trying to figure out what it was and they found out it was the soy.”

“Being on the road, being vegan and trying to get your protein in other than soy, there’s just nothing to eat. There’s soy in everything. Most of the vegan things you can eat are tofu dishes and whatnot, made out of soy.”

Okay. So maybe they’re not so typical singles after all.

While filming Vamps in the Detroit area,  Silverstone got the chance to sample lots of vegan goodies from shops nearby. Inn Season Cafe and What Crepe? were two places she dug her fangs into between filming.
