Vegetarian Star

What’s a parent to do? You’re a vegetarian, trying to bring your kids up that way, but all the screaming munchkin is asking for is MEAT.

If you’re Ziggy Marley, you give in from time to time.

And Erykah Badu thought she had it bad just because her daughter wouldn’t stop begging for vegan snacks.

Ziggy, musician and son of legendary Bob Marley, spoke with Celebrity Baby Blog and said that although he is very picky about food and tries to keep his children on a vegetarian diet like he is, sometimes he gives in.

“I’m kind of cool — I let them eat some meat,” Ziggy said. “It’s all good.”

There’s always the debate over whether to raise a child vegetarian from birth.

Lord of the Rings star Andy Serkis won’t do it. Diane Keaton’s not too enthusiastic either. 

Some say it isn’t fair to enforce any lifestyle on a child until it’s old enough to decide. Looks like Ziggy’s kids know what they want. But should he give it to them?

With the range of fake meats on the market, there’s nothing little Daniel, Justice, Zuri, Judah, and Gideon can’t ask for that doesn’t come in an animal-free variety.

What do you guys think? Is it “all good” for a vegetarian parent to give into a child’s meat wishes occasionally?

Boston fans, Phish fans, it’s time to duel. The latest Who Would You poll involves Boston guitarist Tom Scholz and Phish bassist Mike Gordon. Tom and some of his other Boston buddies invented a charity just to dump all their money towards vegetarian causes. Mike loves his vegan carrot kugel. So between the two rockers, who would you rather do…

The ever so funny man of AFI, bassist Hunter Burgan, recently blogged a list a quotes by famous vegetarians.

Hunter decided to add his profound quote on vegetarianism:

“I’d never eat a horse.”

There you have it folks. This will be recorded in the history books with great short quotes by the likes of people like Muhammad Ali, The Pope, and Gandhi. Some other good revelations from people Hunter included:

“I have been following a vegan diet now since the 1980s, and find it not only healthier, but also much more attractive than the chunks of meat that were on my plate as a child.”
Neal Barnard M.D.

“If the whole world went vegan, there would be less war. How you eat determines your mood and your outlook on life.”
Alexandra Paul

Phish’s bass player and vocalist Mike Gordon Tweeted about his love of vegan carrot kugel.

Kugels are awesome traditional baked Jewish dishes that feature vegetables, fruit or other starches, and a thickening agent.

In an effort to get closer to the immortal status of rock stars, we decided to search for a recipe for vegan kugel, that, upon ingestion, would make us famed musicians and send millions of fan mail and driveling women to our doorstep.

We found a Vegan Potato and Carrot Kugel recipe that we’ll have to try in the near future.

If any of you have a different formula for vegan carrot kugel, please drop a comment and let everyone know where to find it.

Maybe Paul McCartney is getting old.

The famous vegetarian Ex Beatle has written a letter to former Baywatch babe Pamela Anderson detailing all the benefits of a vegetarian diet.

But why on earth is he telling this to Pamela, who’s been a vegetarian for years?

“There are several reasons for a shift in a much lower input of meat in human diets if not complete vegetarianism…Quite apart from reasons of compassion for animals, a move towards vegetarian diets would also address the crisis in the global food market which leaves the poorest of the poor severely malnourished and ill-fed with food prices that have climbed to substantial heights in recent months largely because of diversion of food grains for conversion into animal proteins.”

Like duh. Pamela knows that dude.

Read the rest of Paul’s letter to Pamela.

Paul McCartney is the latest celebrity to add his name the growing list on the petition urging members of European Parliament to make the trading of goods made from seals illegal.

“The fate of millions of seal pups is in the hands of elected members of the European Parliament,” McCartney said in a statement.

“In the next few weeks they will have a historic opportunity to stop the cruel trade in seal products throughout the European Union.”

Voting on the complete ban takes place next week. Such a ban would deter hunters from clubbing seals, wishing to gain profits from their coats and meat.
