Vegetarian Star

For all the 80s babies or those that love 80s music (or even early 90s) Bryan Adams’ love songs and ballads (and even his rock songs) made the decade with memories.

The singer spoke to PETA about vegetarianism and animal rights:

What made you decide to get involved with PETA?
I’ve been vegetarian for about 17-18 years now, since I was about 28. And of course, my motto has always been “If you love animals, don’t eat them”.

What do you think about the killing of baby seals for their fur in Canada?
I’m opposed to fur and any kind of use of animal products. I don’t eat them, and I don’t wear them. I’m not for the killing of any creature – whether it be seals, cows, dogs, anything. So anytime it comes to any kind of animal cruelty, I’m totally against it.

Morrissey is quite serious about spreading the vegetarian news. While playing at the O2 Wireless Festival he wasn’t too thrilled to see the V.I.P. area so close to the barbecue, even requesting that the barbecue be turned off.

This request wasn’t granted, but that still didn’t stop him from posting, “Meat Is Murder,” signs in the barbecue area.

The late Linda McCartney would be proud.

New products are being added to her vegetarian frozen food line that include, Vegetarian Mince, Vegetarian Meatballs, and Vegetarian “Chicken” Style Pieces.

It is part of a plan to revitalize the brand and of course, bring more healthy, nutritious options to vegetarians and those who desire to add meatless products to their diets.

The McCartney family, including Sir Paul and daughters Mary and Stella, are reported to be involved with the revitalization which Mary describes as “a very personal project”.

Some items already on the Linda McCartney line include Macaroni and Cheese, Butternut Squash Ravioli, and Spicy Peanut Pasta with Vegetarian Chicken.

Epicurious

Epicurious.com has a feature on their website where celebrities, such as Lisa Loeb, Gabrielle Reece, and vegan Moby take you on a tour of their kitchens.

When Moby opened his refrigerator to the camera we spied awesome goodies such as Amy’s Salsa, Eden Soy Milk, and Ezekiel Bread. There is also a Homer Simpson toy on the counter, but don’t ask us what it’s used for!

Some of his favorite utensils include a white pot which he thinks was handed down by his grandfather. He is also a fan of the microwave because it’s helpful for those with hangovers who still need good food such as burritos.

Moby griped about how non-stick skillets wear away over time and hinted at how the chemicals must be transferring from the skillet to our bodies. Duh! Just go buy yourself some cast iron skillets.

On a very important day in Veggie History, July 20th, 2004, Andre 3000 of Outkast was named the sexiest vegetarian of the year by Peta.

Other celebrities who have held the title include Carrie Underwood, Natalie Portman, and Kevin Eubanks.

Wonder if he still celebrates with a tofu shish kabob on the grill every year?

After the first set of 2008 sexiest vegetarians Anthony Kiedis and Leona Lewis were crowned, Peta got greedy with the veg royalty and decided to hold another contest, naming yet 2 more.

Alyssa Milano of Charmed and Frank Iero of My Chemical Romance were the sexiest judged by a contest held by peta2.org.

According to The Daily Green, this second list had younger celebrities, more men, with most men being in bands.

Is Peta planning to take over, thus crowning more veg kings and queens to help rule the world? Oh, well. We believe governments are better without monarchy anyway. This seems like a tofu takeover we don’t mind submitting to.

Taco Tuesday, No-Cover Thursday, and… Meat-Free Monday?

Paul McCartney has suggested everyone stop eating meat one day a week to reduce carbon emission from the cattle industry.

He has been reported to tell his carnivore eating friends, “You realise you are eating dead flesh.”
According to The Telegraph Paul said cutting out meat one day a week is popular in Australia, where shoppers have become conscious of the environmental impact of cattle rearing and meat production.

In an interview with The Grocer, Paul said, “A lot of people go to the gym on a Monday.” Seems not eating meat would add an even more healthful spin to the day. “With meat-free Mondays, it’s a bit like going to the gym but with the added advantage of protecting the planet,” he added.

Paul turned vegetarian after a fishing trip, “Many years ago, I was fishing, and as I was reeling in the poor fish, I realised, ‘I am killing him — all for the passing pleasure it brings me’. And something inside me clicked. I realised as I watched him fight for breath that his life was as important to him as mine is to me”.

Mother’s Milk is best, but soy milk may be good as well.

Vegetarian and Red Hot Chili Pepper band member, Anthony Kiedis, was voted one of Peta’s sexiest in 2008, along with his female counterpart, Leona Lewis.

Kiedis beat other notable veg celebrity males such as Casey Affleck, Rikki Rockett, and Tobey Maguire.

His son’s doctor recommended a vegan diet for mini-Anthony, and after learning of the problems with fish depletion, Kiedis decided to go it like father like son.

“Soon after I [went vegan] I saw some documentary footage of what happens in the factory farming of cows …. It sealed the deal,” says Kiedis.
