Vegetarian Star

“There are some seriously sexy vegetarians in this world (see: Prince). The kind folks at Peta recently asked their supporters to vote for their “sexiest Vegetarian celebrity” and today I learned I won that title, along with a dude who disproves the silly lie that Vegans cant be strong: Biggest Loser trainer, Bob Harper. I am really honored, and very inspired to continue living the vegan lifestyle that has been so good to my body, my animal friends, and the world we live in. So thank you, PETA, and thanks to all who voted for me!”

—Olivia Wilde, reacting to being chosen as sexiest female vegetarian celebrity on her new website Wilde Things, which also contains information on veganism and animal issues.

PETA’s has tallied the votes for sexiest vegetarians and vegans Bob Harper and Olivia Wilde have been crowned King and Queen.

A healthy body weight is linked to sexiness and as one of the coaches on the weight loss reality TV show, The Biggest Loser, Harper spells sex with a capital “S.” He recently revealed he’d gone vegan and he encourages contestants on the NBC show to adopt at least a mostly vegetarian diet to reach their weight loss goals.

Now that Wilde holds the title of PETA’s sexiest female, she can now boast to her husband she’s royalty too.

Roger Ebert has written a cookbook dedicated to rice cookers, The Pot and How to Use It. The Mystery and Romance of the Rice Cooker, which is scheduled for release in September.

Anna Thomas, author of vegetarian cookbooks like “The Vegetarian Epicure,” and “Love Soup,” has written an introduction to the book.

Inside, The Pot, is promised to be filled with Ebert’s favorite recipes, which sound as if they can at least be made vegetarian, for chili, risotto and Ebert’s favorite–oatmeal. The longtime film critic has named the rice cooker as one of his favorite kitchen appliances and he told the AP one could eat for week using it to cook several meals a day.

Michael Pollan sat down for an interview with MSNBC’s Lifeline to discuss the benefits of organic food.

He highlights recent studies demonstrating that higher levels of organophosphates in a child’s urine is associated with higher levels of ADHD.

“That doesn’t prove cause and effect, but it’s a powerful and alarming correlation and a pretty good argument for trying to keep these things out of your children’s body.”
