Vegetarian Star

Mother’s Day is just around the corner and you slackers better head to the mall quick.

Even if your mom isn’t the best in the world, she still deserves some love this weekend as she can’t possibly be worst than the television mothers featured at televisionwithoutpity.com.

They’ve compiled a top 10 list of TV’s worst moms and Desperate Housewive’s Marcia Cross‘ character, Bree Van De Kamp is on the list. 

Bree has a rap sheet longer than Bernard Madoff’s scam list of evil mommy deeds, including going against her daughter’s wishes and forcing her vegan grandchild to eat a hot dog.

Yep, that definitely marks her off our Hallmark and FTD list. No vegan chocolates either. She’s lucky if she gets a phone call. And even that will be collect. 

Other bad mommies of the year star in Prison Break, Heroes, Gossip Girl, and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Can you guess who they are? Visit televisionwithoutpity.com to find out!

If you haven’t heard already, Oprah Winfrey has both shocked and angered animal rights activists across the nation by teaming up with Kentucky Fried Chicken to offer free chicken dinners to every home in America.

KFC is on the “naughty” and not “nice” list with organizations like PETA, due to the way the chickens it uses are treated.

Now, we can add one more sin Oprah is contributing to now that she’s signed a pact with the Colonel devil: swine flu.

Jane Velez-Mitchell and Dr. Gregor of the HSUS said it best: the conditions in factory farms like the ones KFC chickens are kept in are the hub for breeding diseases.

Brian Merchant at Treehugger.com has this to say on the matter:

“I was dismayed to hear that Oprah was helping to push KFC’s free chicken promotion. Wasn’t quite sure why, initially—after all, ‘free food for everyone’ is generally a pretty positive notion. But then I recalled that KFC buys its chicken from Tyson—one of the US’s biggest factory farmers and perpetrator of shady health practices. And then I remembered that Oprah herself did an expose on the cruelty of factory farms , essentially condemning them. And then I realized that the ploy couldn’t have come at a worse time: US factory farms have been confirmed to have played a role in the origin of swine flu.”

“The point isn’t that Oprah screwed up–it’s that we should all be more aware of the practices that lead to the food on our table (or in the takeout window).”

If Oprah Winfrey had a Pinocchio nose, it would stretch taller than the height of her condo’s building.

Awhile back, Miss O. did a documentary on chicken factory farm abuse.

Maybe she gave all the chickens prizes like she does to her audience members and now they don’t mind being boiled. She has no problem making the abused chickens martyrs as she’s announced she’s giving every family in America a free 2-piece Kentucky Grilled Chicken Meal.

How could she? After all, it was her involvement with so many animal rights issues that won her the love of PETA and it’s Person of the Year title she enjoyed scooting Obama out of the spotlight to share.

Could it be that Oprah is just trying to do something to feed hungry, credit crunched America and has completely forgotten PETA’s ongoing beef with KFC due to its treatment of chickens?

Whatever her reasons, she could have done much better. Coupons for Subway would have at least given people the option of  a much healthier and less cruel Veggie Max Patty or Veggie Delight Sandwich.

What other ways could O have treated America and chickens right?

What a way to ruin an otherwise beautiful spring afternoon.

It appears that Kelly Clarkson is no longer vegetarian, according to reports from her management company, Starstruck Management Group.

“She’s not a vegetarian,” said Trisha McClanahan of Starstruck. “She’s been a vegetarian in the past, but currently she’s not.”

We’re thinking Thanksgiving may have something to do with it.

From Kelly’s blog about Thanksgiving with her relatives, it sounds like she may have given in to temptation.

“i’ve been hanging with family during the holidays and i made my first turkey with my sister this year ….which is kind of hilarious seeing as how i haven’t eaten meat in over a year, but it was fun to make. and by fun, i mean our turkey was awesome and everything but i’ll never do it again. it was freakin’ exhausting!!

If the turkey was “awesome,” Kelly probably was gobbling it up, and the fact that she mentioned she hadn’t eaten meat in over a year suggests she recently tried it again.

Darn holidays. Relatives, long shopping lines, and tempting birds on the table.

On another sad note, unlike some Internet rumors were saying, her management confirmed that Kelly didn’t cancel her appearance at the Calgary Stampede because she was morally opposed to the treatment of animals in rodeos. Clarkson only cancelled because she wants to include Calgary at a later date on her tour.

If you’re looking for the next vegetarian Food Network cook, keep driving past Guy Fieri.

This Guy (pun intended) is so repulsed by that diet that he started fending for himself at a very young age to avoid his parents’ cooking.

From People.com:

“My parents were into macrobiotic cooking—vegetarian, nondairy, whole grains, no red meat. I started cooking when I was 10 because I just couldn’t eat that stuff.”

Guy’s story brings up an important area of discussion many have over the question of forcing a vegetarian diet on their children.

Should veg parents make their kids follow the lifestyle too? At least until they’re old enough to make their own decisions about their food (or old enough to earn money to buy their own groceries?)?

We know Kristen Bell won’t mind cooking crockpot chicken for her friends and Kelly Clarkson stuffs dead bird for the family at Thanksgiving. Now we know Eric Roberts won’t mind cooking chicken for his carnivorous friends and family.

The actor and brother of Julia Roberts spent some time in Tuscon, Arizona with his sister and a family friend where he was spotted at Mexican restaurant Senor Sammy’s helping out with the chicken cooking.

Sure, Eric may be a nice guy for helping and all, but couldn’t he have just helped with the bean burritos, instead?

Hugh Jackson needed to get buffed up for his role as Wolverine in the new X-Men movie.

So what did he start eating a zillion times a day? Lots of pasta? Hemp protein powder? Not exactly. That’s why he definitely wants you to know he’s not vegan.

He was recently in Hollywood getting his hands and footprints immortalized in the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, when he told a reporter of his dieting plan.

“Let me tell you, I’m not vegan. I ate so many chickens to make this body. If there is a place in hell for people who eat chickens, I have booked a suite bigger than anybody.”

Say hello to Colonel KFC for us, Hugh.

The Celebrity Apprentice candidates are dropping faster than the real hairs on Donald Trump’s head did before he put whatever creature of a hairpiece is currently living there now.

Heisman Trophy winner and former running back Herschel Walker is the latest to get the ax. 

The apprentices were given the task of creating a healthy frozen meal for a large company which produces frozen entrees. Herschel led his team with the idea of soy ginger chicken. But dude should never have advocated the chicken dish, given the fact that he’s vegetarian. And that’s probably why he paid the price.

The meal wasn’t exactly the most palatable. Anna Pickard at the Guardian, had a funny way of describing the ordeal:

“The orange helps a lot, and it’s presented: Asian Orange Chicken, quickly renamed to Orange Asian-style chicken when someone notices it’s not ACTUALLY Asian and has never had an Asian person remotely near it: and that something that sounds like ‘Agent Orange Chicken’ might not be a great selling point.”

Yes, Agent Orange, DNA mutating chicken is definitely bad for business.

Unfortunately, Trump was into turkey balls that night and no amount of Agent Orange could mutate him into saving Herschel.

Said Trump, “I love you. I love you Herschel. I love you. I’m not a gay man, but I love you. And you’re fired.”

When Herschel admitted he wasn’t a meat eater, Donald asked why he chose to be in charge of it. It was because that dreadful dog eating Joan Rivers pushed for it.
