Well, maybe just focusing on Los Angeles. And she only wants to dominate what people are eating.
Mills, who just opened her vegan cafe and restaurant V Bites, recently Tweeted about her plans to expand her UK business.
“Once V-Bites is perfected we plan to open them worldwide – we have a few willing franchisees there,” Heather said in response to a Twitter follower who wanted to know if she would open one in the LA area in the U.S.
Heather is claiming that V Bites is quite popular, her customers “loving” the recipes.
Comments Off on John Salley Got Torrie Wilson To Go Vegetarian
Second place winner of I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of HereTorrie Wilson said she went vegetarian after finishing the reality TV competition.
“I’ve changed my entire way of eating after the show,” she told the Baltimore Sun. “I became a vegetarian, almost vegan. I feel wonderful after having the cleansing I had there and getting off sugar.”
Torrie’s competitor and 3rd place winner John Salley is vegan and according to chron.com, it was John that gave Torrie the little “push.”
“Wilson became good buddies with former NBA player Salley, who persuaded her to become a vegetarian.”
It’s great that Torrie became veg. Even greater than John helped her “convert.”
Now it’s just a matter of him sharing those recipes cards and giving her samples of his Double Baked Herbed Crisps to share.
Now, she’s sounding as if it was her husband’s fault she went back to beef.
Technically, if being pregnant caused meat cravings and her husband, ahem, “helped” with getting her pregnant…
In a recent interview with Rachael Ray, Brooke reveals that her husband’s best meal is when he rubs it, or, uh, makes his own rub for beef and chicken.
“He mixes his own dry rub for beef and chicken. I was a vegetarian until he started to cook for me! He also makes an amazing grilled steak with garlic and herb butter. It just melts in your mouth.”
No, no, no Brooke! It’s supposed to be the other way around. You were supposed to show Chris Henchy how to rub it on faux beef and chicken.
Comments Off on Heather Mills Putting Multiple Cuisine Types On V Bites Menu
Okay, so you’re out with friends and everybody’s hungry, but you’ve been trying to figure out where to eat for the past 1/2 hour because you can’t agree on one place.
You want Chinese, your sig other wants Italian, your best friends wants Greek…arghhhh!
Heather Mills has recognized this issue and plans to put at least two dishes from various International cuisine types to make groups of people like you and your friends happy.
“And the evening menu will include two Thai dishes, and two Indian dishes, and two Italian dishes, and so on; because you know what it’s like when you want to go out for dinner with your friends, and one of them wants Italian, and one of them wants Thai, and you want Indian … well, that won’t be a problem here, will it?” Heather said, in an interview with the UK Guardian about her new vegan restaurant, V Bites.
Problem solved for where to eat. You can even plan ahead by reading the V Bites menu before you go.
Now, if Heather can resolve the argument of paying separately or paying with one check.
What’s the most ridiculous thing an omnivore ever asked you? Was it the “do you eat chicken?” question?
Philstar.com has compiled some information on several vegetarian celebrities, including why they went veg, favorite restaurants, frustrating moments as a vegetarian, etc.
Owain Yeoman, Geneva Cruz, Yasmien Kurdi, and Pamela Anderson are all profiled.
Here are a few highlights from the “Funniest Thing Ever Said To Me By Meat Eaters” question:
Owain Yeoman
“Someone once asked me if I wasn’t concerned that vegetarianism will “stunt my growth” and at 6’4” and 190 pounds, the last thing I am worried about is my growth being stunted!”
Pamela Anderson
“It’s pretty funny when a meat eater tells me that he or she is an environmentalist. The meat trade is the number one cause of global warming!”
Geneva Cruz
““WHY?!!!!” My answer is “Why not?!!” There.”
Yasmien Kurdi
“I can’t think of anything specific, but what I’ve told meat eaters is if they want to contract swine flu, bird flu, and all those other animal-borne diseases — or if they want to die an early death — then they should eat meat! Hahaha! I know it’s a bit harsh, but I like to be direct when talking about animal issues and I think this makes meat eaters seriously rethink their diet … though outwardly we laugh about it.”

The idea is to create sex appeal and get your attention in hopes of turning you on (pun intended) to the veg lifestyle. But how effective is it?
Tony Pierce weighs in on PETA’s campaigns at latimesblogs.latimes.com. His response? Sure, they’re hot, but does being nude with veggie wieners convey any factual information?
“Here’s what PETA should realize: Men can change their ways, and yes, women could be the impetus that could lead us toward healthier diet, which in turn could also lead to a better world. But attractive, mostly naked women, in public places, doing weird and wild things, are feeding into male fantasies, as opposed to repulsing our animalistic impulses.”
He then highlights a similar campaign using nude women in an outdoor shower, with a banner that reads, “Wash Your Conscience-Go Vegetarian.”
“The German women to the right have an approach that I can get behind. Although this banner says “Wash your conscience clean — become vegetarian,” a different sign from the same demonstration in Frankfurt this week claimed that it takes 2,500 gallons of water to produce a pound of ground beef. While studies vary as to exactly how much water is needed for cattle, a regularly quoted Newsweek line claims that “the water that goes into a 1,000-pound steer would float a destroyer.”
“At the risk of alienating myself from the rest of my bachelor brotherhood, I have to say that this sort of logic actually speaks to me: “Before you order that chili burger from Tommy’s or that steak at Ruth’s Chris, think about what it took to create that delicious dish, and in the case of beef, it took lots and lots and lots of water. Water that could be used for more important things than the red meat that will please your palate but will rot your intestines.”
Looks like men need their brains turned on as much as other parts. Read the rest of Tony’s article.
Jayde Nicole, 2008 Playmate of the Year, and Jo Garcia put on their freshest cabbage leaves and served veggie dogs to politicians and other folks passing by while promoting a vegetarian diet and lifestyle.
Ironically, this year’s Playmate of the Year, Ida Ljungqvist, is vegetarian as well.
Is there a pattern happening here? We sure hope so!
