Kourtney Kardashian Craving Fruits During Pregnancy

If you keep up with the Kardashians, you know by now that Kourtney is carrying a bun in her oven by none other than her player boyfriend Scott Disick.

We’ve expressed disappointment in the number of vegetarian women who give into meat cravings during pregnancy, so it comes as a pleasant surprise that non vegetarian Kourtney’s hormones are calling for fruit.

“You know what’s weird? Like, I always thought like if I was pregnant I would eat like, McDonalds or like, Taco Bell all day long or something. I’m not craving those things, like, I’ve been craving like cold stuff like frozen yogurt and smoothies and like, I’ve been eating way more fruit then I used to eat before.”

Good. Stay away from McEvil and the arches Kourtney.

Better yet, follow Khloe’s lead and work towards going vegetarian.

Stella McCartney Admired Mom Linda McCartney’s Vegetarian Style

Paul McCartney

Stella McCartney just revealed she thinks her mom was one of the greatest in the world.

Not only does Stella admire Linda McCartney, but she aims to be just as free-spirited and compassionate about all life just like dear ol’ mom.

Stella told Harper’s Bazaar:

“She had a strong voice and was very ahead of her time. The connection she made between how people treat animals and the environment is proving to be very significant.”

Stella probably “borrowed” a few things from her mom’s closet now and then.

“I love the way my mother wore clothes. She used to always cut her own hair and wore very little make-up, and she just did things differently. She used to wear odd socks but then she also wore beautiful suits and little dresses with platform shoes. That is sort of how people dress now, so she was very modern and ahead of her time.”

Do you have a parent who influenced your veg lifestyle decisions tremendously?

Heather Mills vegan cafe VBites opens in Hove, Brighton, UK

Treehugger has compiled a list of their favorite celebrity green businesses and vegan star Heather Mills made the cut.

Not only does Heather run her little vegan cafe and restaurant in the UK called V Bites, she also recently purchased Redwood Wholesale Foods.

And that just makes Heather greenalicious!

From Treehugger.com:

“Last month we reported that Heather Mills opened Vbites Café, a seaside vegan establishment in the U.K. offering unique meatless meats and vegan favorites–accompanied by vegan and organic wines and beers. At the time, we had also caught wind of a potential new vegan frozen food business. While we at TreeHugger were skeptical over the motives, Heather Mills’ Web site now confirms that Mills is indeed the new owner of U.K.-based Redwood Wholesale Foods. And she isn’t stopping there: The company hopes to soon bring their meat-free brands to the U.S. for distribution.”

It’s no surprise a vegetarian business made the eco cut.

Meat’s not green and never has been.

Go Heather for making green so darn tasty!

Everyone’s favorite vegan girl, Alicia Silverstone, recently sat down with Health magazine where she discussed her upcoming vegan diet book, A Kind Diet, as well as her vegan lifestyle in general.

Here are a few excerpts:

On The Kind Diet Book:
“I’m excited about presenting something that can make you feel amazing and look your best. Once you’re informed, then you can be really gentle and kind to yourself, by giving yourself all the gifts life has to offer—like mental clarity and vitality—all while making the planet better”

The Role A Vegan Diet Played in her weightloss:
“Diet first, exercise second. Exercise is fantastic, and when I need to be a certain way quickly, I amp up my exercise by walking the dogs and doing yoga.”

How The Right Foods Make You “Juicy”:
You can hear your needs and desires more clearly. You’re just more juicy—there’s just this lightness that happens.

Whole Foods CEO Offers Advice For Obama’s Health Care Plan

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, August 19th, 2009 in Food & Drink, Politicians.

President Obama speaks at VFW Convention in Phoenix

If you’ve been following the Obama Health Care Reform talks, you know people are definitely forming opinions on every side.

Should the United States offer health care for everyone like Canada or European countries? Or is this headed for a system where Americans no longer have choice about their medical decisions.

Whole Foods CEO John Mackey recently wrote an article in the Wall Street Journal where he suggested the best way to combat illness-and fix the health care problem-is through a plant based diet.

“Unfortunately many of our health-care problems are self-inflicted: two-thirds of Americans are now overweight and one-third are obese. Most of the diseases that kill us and account for about 70% of all health-care spending—heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes and obesity—are mostly preventable through proper diet, exercise, not smoking, minimal alcohol consumption and other healthy lifestyle choices.”

“Recent scientific and medical evidence shows that a diet consisting of foods that are plant-based, nutrient dense and low-fat will help prevent and often reverse most degenerative diseases that kill us and are expensive to treat. We should be able to live largely disease-free lives until we are well into our 90s and even past 100 years of age.”

2007 Projekt Revolution Tour

Fred Mascherino, ex Taking Back Sunday guitarist and singer recently spoke with phillyist.com about how he gets his grub on while touring.

Apparently, there are a few places that probably know Fred by name as they’re on his radar when he’s in the cities.

“…I’ve spent more time on the road than at home the last several years, I’ve come up with my little… I know what state I’m in and where there is to eat there. In Baltimore there’s the Paper Moon Diner. In Boston there’s Grasshopper and there’s this vegetarian hot dog joint I always go to. In Austin, Texas, there’s a Thai place I love. So I get to know these places; I’m out [on the road] so much that I kind of memorize all these places that I like to eat”

Fred’s little black book of veggie restaurants seems to cover a lot of ground.

Sounds as if this guy’s never without a dinner date.
