Vegetarian Star

Murray Rose, a four-time Olympic gold medalist in swimming for Australia, passed away at the age of 73.

In addition to being an accomplished freestyle swimmer, winning gold at the 1956 Melbourne and 1960 Rome games, Rose dabbled in acting, having an appearance in the 1964 film “Ride the Wild Surf,” and the 1968 action film “Ice Station Zebra.”

He did it all on a completely plant-based diet and described himself as being ahead of his time in an age that he claimed vegetarianism “wasn’t really cared for.”

Country music favorite Trisha Yearwood‘s new six episode Food Network series debuted this weekend.

She’s promised to use Trisha’s Southern Kitchen to show fans how easy it can be to make home-cooked comfort meals without animal ingredients, like this recipe for her Chickenless Pot Pie.

Yeah…not pleasant.

Award-winning actress Jessica Chastain has found a way to avoid such a pain by simply removing all animal products from her plate. Since going vegan, she claims she doesn’t have to watch her weight as much as the lifestyle naturally keeps her fit.

Craig Ferguson hosted Minnesota comedian Bryan Miller who took the opportunity to make a few jokes about the vegetarian lifestyle. Miller’s wife is vegetarian. He is not. Cue the outrageous stories.

Vegetarians who live with/have close relationships with carnivores should consider Miller’s plan to open a “vegetarian compromise restaurant.”

“We’re still going to serve meat,” Miller said. “But only the parts the animals can afford to live without.”

Although he is still allowed to cook meat at home, Miller says wife insists they shop at the local co-op, paving the way for jokes about the price of goods that come with labels like fair trade.
