Vegetarian Star

The best things in life are free and educational.

That’s why Paul McCartney put a copy of his narrated PETA DVD, Glass Walls in each of the presenters and nominees bags at the Golden Globes, according to Contact Music.

The video provides an inside look of the meat industry.

“I’ve often said, ‘If slaughterhouses had glass walls, everyone would be vegetarian,” McCartney said.

“Animals raised on modern factory farms and killed in slaughterhouses endure almost unimaginable suffering. I hope that once you see the routine cruelty involved in raising, transporting, and killing animals for food, you’ll join the millions of people who have decided to leave meat off their plates – for good.”

Could McCartney convert some Golden Globe attendees?

“ok, so sarah palin is releasing a book. and it’s filled with some insightful, thoughtful gems, like: ‘here’s my philosophy on being a carnivore: If God had not intended for us to eat animals, how come He made them out of meat?”

“the problem, of course, being that other things are also made out of meat. like, well, people. and doggies and kitties. and cute little human babies. so if we follow your logic, mrs palin, you are actually suggesting that god intended for us to eat humans and dogs and cats and human babies, as these things are all technically made out of meat. i’m not even being swiftian, i’m just exposing sarah palin’s thoughts to some simple logic. which might be problematic, as she is also the person who once talked about looking out her window and seeing vladimir putin staring back (although he’s technically 8,000 miles away, unless he’s recently moved to kamchatka).”

—Moby, including his thoughts on Sarah Palin‘s book, Going Rogue on his blog.

This insight is even more cynically humorous than his theories on vegan zombies.

Jason Mraz has five commitments he’d like to stick to in the next year and decade that he shared with fans on his blog.

Jason would like to focus on local, organic and natural foods and gives factory farmed meat a good lashing.

“Did you know that processing one pound of meat requires 5000 gallons of water? Did you know that 1 cow used to produce fast food and grocery store ground beef requires 35 gallons of oil (1 barrel) to support it’s force–fed life? Did you know that cows are natural herbivores (grass grazers) and are force fed corn feed, cow parts and other animal bi-products to speed up the process to where they are fat enough to be slaughtered?  Buying quick and easy meat is like biting the hand that feeds you. Modern industrial agri-business is THE #1 contributor to the dying world.”

But a closer look at his post makes you wonder if the otherwise known as mostly vegan Jason is more tolerant of naturally raised meat.

“If we all shifted our attention back to grass-fed meat, we would be supporting farms that participate in a natural turning of land, from sunlight to grass, grass to proteins, protein to fertilizer, rinse and repeat. Not to mention, we would be treating our divine bodies better.”

Once a raw vegan who then claimed to have some occasional hot soup and (possibly) joking about eating a fish taco now and then.

Has Jason become a flexitarian?

When Paul McCartney agreed to perform on Travis‘ Fran Healy‘s solo album, Healy paid McCartney back in a gift worth more than a million dollar record contract.

Healy, his wife and one year old son have all turned vegetarian, the singer wrote on his blog, according to The Guardian.

“Nora [Healy’s wife] and I were sitting and thinking of a thank-you present and I suggested going vegetarian. Our son is already one, so it would mean we would all be on the same boat. I met Paul at his show in Berlin and told him what we wanted to do. He was visibly flabbergasted. Three days later the FedEx man delivered three Linda McCartney [vegetarian] cook books.”

Healy says he doesn’t miss his old diet and enjoyed hummus this past Christmas.

“I haven’t had any longing for meat or fish yet.”

It’s fantastic that Healy made a decision that’s better for the health of his family.

Sure  hope he keeps it up.

Going back to cheeseburgers may be a breach of contract worth years of court time over intellectual property.

Jason Mraz wears TOMS Shoes

MacBeth shoes gets a lot of press for its vegan line from celebrities like Hunter Burgan, but has Jason Mraz given TOMS Shoes a publicity boost as well?

The musician was reportedly sporting a pair during what was called a “super chill interview.”

The shoes Jason is wearing look similar to the Dolina line, but the Dolinas are described as having leather insoles.

Is there a Dolina vegan line not yet available to the public?

TOMS does however, have its share of vegan shoes, including a style created to benefit Charlize Theron‘s charity.

The owners of one of Jason Mraz‘s favorite raw vegan food restaurants, Cafe Gratitude, recently opened a Mexican vegan eatery, Gracias Madre.

As expected, Jason has expanded his love for Gracias Madre and recently made a Tweet about it.

“Today in San Fran: Cafe Gratitude opens Gracias Madre, A Vegan Taqueria! I’ve sampled the yumness already. It’s your new favorite spot.”

Gracias Madre offers 100% completely organic and vegan food and all cheese, milk and ice cream is created from nuts.

The menu features everything from tacos with fresh veggies, beans and cashew cheese to butternut squash soup to salads.

Gracias Cafe Gratitude for putting the vegan punch in Mexican!

Every time a vegetarian celebrity opens its mouth, another deer dies.

At least that’s how Ted Nugent wants it.

The musician who’s made it clear in the past he’s not a friend of vegetarians or animal rights activists recently expressed his discontent over those who find fault with one of his favorite sports of hunting.

And warning: he’s not too rated G about it either.

“Pam Anderson… if you get the d**k out of your mouth for two minutes, you’re telling me I can’t eat venison? You don’t authorize venison?”

“My name is Ted Nugent and because of Pam Anderson… and because of Paul McCartney, all the members of PETA, whenever I hear the word animal or rights in the same paragraph, I’m killing an extra hundred of something this year.”

Nugent insists he doesn’t let any of his game go to waste.

“I’m not just killing them, I’m f**king slaughtering them and I’m going to gut them and skin them, quarter them and butcher them and feed them to the soup kitchens and homeless shelters of America… That’s my goal in life.”

Paul McCartney may be the object of Nugent’s hatred this time, but last year he was willing to buy him a vegetarian meal.

After Paul received threats for agreeing to play in Tel Aviv, Nugent told the press, “It would be my pleasure to keep this legendary musical hero safe from terrorists and madmen, and then buy him a nice dinner of tofu.”

It’s time to buy Pamela some tempeh to make up for that oh not so nice statement.

“Hide those vegan xmas cookies! I don’t want to even smell them!”

—-Hunter Burgan, in a recent Tweet.

Why on earth would you want to get rid of vegan cookies?

Cause most vegan desserts give vegheads a Pringles Potato Chip like syndrome–once you pop one in your mouth, it’s difficult to stop!
