Vegetarian Star

“I am 51, but look younger. My ­doctor thinks it is my veganism – I’ve been vegan since I was 13. I try not to have fried food and don’t drink ­alcohol or smoke. I also do yoga and t’ai chi. It’s important to learn how to be relaxed; if you are tense and miserable, it stamps itself on your face.”

—-Benjamin Zephaniah in The Guardian.

“I love beets, and I look forward to using both red and golden varieties every winter. Once the beets are cooked, I like to slice them paper-thin with a mandoline and stuff them [like a pocket] with cashew cheese. Or I roll them up with a tofu ricotta, which I batter for vegan tempura. Diced beets also make a nice addition to a composed salad.”

—The Conscious Cook author and celebrity chef Tal Ronnen, from the February 2010 issue of Vegetarian Times.

Do you share Ronnen’s passion for the purple vegetable?

“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.

Mandy Moore Shape January 2010

“I love the idea of getting up early on Sundays and walking to the market to pick up fresh fruits and vegetables. It’s a good way to start my day, and it makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something before other people are even awake.”

—-Mandy Moore, from an interview with Shape. Mandy’s featured on the January 2010 issue of the magazine and although she’s not known to be a veggie, you’ve got to give her credit for appreciating and supporting locally grown, fresh produce.

“I’m also not a great fan of faux fur that looks real — I’d much rather have it look fake.”

—-Project Runway fashion mentor Tim Gunn, in an interview with The LA Times.

Sounds like looking through the archives of Fur Real or Fur Fake would be painful for Tim–even when the fur is completely synthetic.

What’s your take on faux fur?

Does knowing the source is synthetic make it easier on the eyes?

“A couple of books. The new Philip Roth called The Humbling and I’m reading a book a friend of mine wrote her experiences with surrogacy called Standing in Two Places. Her name is Ashley Dyson. I’m reading another book called Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer.”

—-Sandra Bernhard, on her current reading list, during an interview with autostraddle.com.

Eating Animals made Natalie Portman go vegan. Sandra has expressed an interest in getting there. Will Foer‘s book be the push Sandra needs?
