Vegetarian Star

Jon Fitch may be the first celebrity do sport a soy, almond or rice milk mustache in a campaign for non-dairy milk.

In this video from Yahoo, Fitch discusses why he doesn’t think several glasses of dairy milk  a day can do the body much good.

Some medical experts have concluded that milk isn’t beneficial and even harmful to humans based on several research studies. There’s the casein (milk protein) tied to cancer argument. And no one feels that some of the hormones given to cows such as rBGH were ever meant to improve human health. There’s also the issue as to whether cow’s milk actually provides a good source of calcium, an idea that’s been pushed for years.

Kelsey Grammer may be saying “Cheers” to Meatless Monday now that he’s married to vegetarian Katye Walsh.

The two celebrated with both a pre-wedding dinner and wedding menu that was very vegetarian friendly.

TMZ obtained a copy of the wedding menu, which even notes clearly on the form that “Bride Is A Vegetarian.”

Bobby Flay is the host of a new reality TV cooking series that pits aspiring restaurant owners against one another in search for America’s Next Great Restaurant.

All the great chefs of today know there’s an increasing number of people who are looking to add plant-based meals into their lives, even if they’re not full time vegetarians.

Rachael Ray‘s 5th annual Burger Bash at the South Beach Food and Wine Festival took place last week and the only three words we can say are “Too Much Cow.”

Thank goodness Ray is vegetarian friendly and often includes veg recipes on her Food Network shows.

Her vegetarian chickpea burger is one such meat-free recipe, but this chef realizes that although nothing beats a handmade veggie burger where you can witness the culmination of oats, beans, veggies and other plant goodies come together, sometimes it’s nice to have a frozen or otherwise prepared patty to nuke in the microwave.

That’s why she conducted the veggie burger taste test. You could call it the sans animal flesh version of her burger bash.
