Vegetarian Star

Dimora disses Dennis diet…say it fast five times.

Dennis Kucinich attended a recent Democratic party fundraiser and dinner in Cayahoga County, Ohio where he became the target for a joke by County Commissioner and party chairman Jimmy Dimora.

When Dennis’ vegan food prepared for him at the dinner was brought up, Dimora advised him to “take it home with him” and joked, “I don’t want anyone getting sick from that.”

This isn’t the first time, Kucinich’s diet has been poked fun of. Ever heard of the tan moderate political party? They eat hummus, pasta, and other “tan” foods.

No hard feelings, as Kucinich still gave a speech which praised the local chairman.

This is a picture of Gwyneth’s Paltrow’s feet. No, we’re not weirdos with fetishes, we just want to make sure you get a good look before putting the notebook paper in a wad to throw at her.

We have learned through Deceiver.com that Gwyneth wore these when she recently attended the premiere of the documentary, Valentino: The Last Emperor, in Los Angeles. These are suede Christian Louboutin “Ariella Talon” ankle boots with multi-strapped leather buckles.

Yet another fashion faux pas from the actress who has her apologies memorized when it’s time to explain why she often publicly claims to be vegetarian, then is spotted getting cozy with another animal’s skin.

Should we send vegan shoe designer Elizabeth Olsen to knock on Gwyneth’s door? Or just find a really skilled pitcher to throw a pair or two at her?

Sounds like something straight from a Fear Factor episode.

Pop singer Jesse McCartney was visiting Asia recently when he decided to fully immerse himself in the culture, trying one of the local delicacies of monkey brain.

Apparently, it wasn’t  the best meal he’d had. It was missing a little bit of salt and pepper.

“It was a little chewy and a little bland,” McCartney said. “It could have been seasoned a little bit more to tell you the truth.”

The only “icious” way to describe that meal would be “gagalicious.” We’re sorry if you’re reading this while eating lunch at your desk.

When PETA found about about Jesse monkeying around, Spokesman Michael McGraw said in a statement, “You’d have to be bananas to eat monkey flesh, or any meat. When it comes to the ability to feel pain and suffer, a monkey is no different from chickens, cows and pigs. All animals deserve respect, which is why PETA promotes a vegetarian diet.”

We know not all vegetarians cook for their meat eating buddies, but some, like Kristen Bell do.

Last year Kelly Clarkson roasted bird with her family for Thanksgiving, even though she’s been vegetarian for more than year.  However, she found it so exhausting, she vowed never to do it again.

From her blog:

“so i’ve been in texas since ending the tour. 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!! i had to wake up at 5 in the morning, the night before we had to brine the dang thing, and oh my lord i’ll never do it again. my sister and i made the ENTIRE meal and i gotta be honest it gave me a whole new respect for housewives because it was just tiring!!”

Someone should whisper to Kelly that a Tofurky takes a lot less time to prepare. Just thaw, unwrap, do a little basting and bake for about an hour and a half. No brining and no wiping up the potential salmonella residue left behind.

And the housewives can rest and watch television all day, making the family think they’ve worked their butts off!

This is why you should hide the remote from your children at the end of the month folks.

Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi is shown here in her video ad for Hardee’s Western Bacon Thickburger, which will start airing next week.

Gorging on disgusting amounts of cow and pig (and who knows how many parts from each animal), former vegetarian Padma discusses how she’s “always had a love affair with food,” and her, cough, cough, “fond” memories of sneaking and getting a bacon cheeseburger before dinner in high school, devouring it, and leaving no evidence.

We tried to post this early so you wouldn’t throw up your lunch.

Padma may have swayed from being a vegetarian for her love of real meat, but y’all know there are waaaay too  many fake meats out there for anyone to use that as an excuse to go back to eating animals. You could re-create the Padma nasty burger with a completely meatless one. 

What’s your favorite faux carnivorous product? Tofurky sausages? Lightlife Bacon? Chime in and let everybody know!

Update: For full commerical video, go here.

She just had to do it.

Not only did Top Chef  host Padma Lakshmi pose for a Hardee’s Thickburger ad, she wrote her disgusting food porn graphic descriptions of her “experiences” as a teenager.

Seriously, this stuff should be R-rated.

“I…started wolfing down bacon Western cheeseburgers after school at Carl’s Jr. The sublimely pleasurable taste of bacon…was further enhanced by its mingling with the barbecue sauce, greedily licked off as it dripped down my teenage fingers,” Padma writes in her latest cookbook, “Tangy, Tart, Hot and Sweet.”

It was such graphic detail of cow and pig devouring that led Hardee’s officials to seek her out for the campaign.

“When we found out Padma was such a fan of the Carl’s Jr. Western Bacon Cheeseburger, she was a natural fit to star in the television campaign for Hardee’s new Western Bacon Thickburger,” said Brad Haley, executive vice president of marketing for Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr. restaurants. “In many ways, she was the perfect choice for our ‘Young, Hungry, Guy’ customers because she’s beautiful, she’s a culinary expert, she’s beautiful, she’s very smart, and she’s beautiful.”

Wouldn’t it be funny to have a “Young, Hungry, Guy” campaign aimed at teaching about the risks of impotence from eating artery clogging meat?

On her experience doing the burger ad, Padma wrote:

“I think eating in itself is an act of great sensuality, so all you have to do is point the camera in the right direction. I was excited to be able to talk about a food item that I have fond, personal memories of. I grew up wolfing down Western Bacon Cheeseburgers at Carl’s Jr., as I said in my book. So, I was happy to be able to share that story with a whole new group of burger lovers.”

Hide the children, filter the television channel selections, as the ads start running at the end of the month.

Much confusion in the land of blogging.

Gym Class Heroes front man Travis McCoy revealed his favorite spots to hang while in New York.

One such place is Curly’s, which makes sense, considering Travis says he’s been a vegetarian for the past 5 years.

Another joint you might find him in is City Crab. And when asked the reason he frequented there, his reply was, “I go to eat crab legs, bro. Copious and disgusting amounts of it.”

Is Travis  one of those crabby pescetarians?  

Now granted, Travis is known for his bizarre humor, as he once said his last meal on earth would be a dinosaur burger to compensate for the fact that he’s been abstaining from meat for so long.

And it’s kind of strange he would mention both a vegetarian and seafood restaurant as two of his faves.

Ever read about him munching on a sea kitten? Is he just joking around? Chime in and let us know what you think!

Boo, boo, and triple boo!

We have recently learned that Anne Hathaway, the actress who told David Letterman she was “vaguely vegan,” seems to think being almost vegan means enjoying a hamburger here and there.

During a premier of Valentino: The Last Emperor, Anne explained that her clothing wasn’t fitting as well as usual, due to her burger splurge.

“I’ve been enjoying a couple of post-Oscar burgers. So I didn’t fit into a lot of the vintage stuff. I wanted to wear something that was a little bit more forgiving.”

While we’re hoping that Anne meant she was stuffing her face with veggie burgers, that’s probably not the case.

And just when we thought Anne had broken up with meat for good.
