Vegetarian Star

The already vegan-friendly Wynn Las Vegas will be getting a veggie face-lift, as Steve Wynn has invited vegan chef Tal Ronnen to join the hotel’s culinary team.

After going vegan, the casino mogul put several vegan items on the menus at each of his restaurants. He also distributed a DVD copy of the film that inspired him to do so, Eating, to all of his employees. In addition, Wynn’s will was modified to include the Humane Society as a beneficiary.

“It’s an honor and pleasure to work with Steve Wynn, who recently became vegan, and his incredible team of chefs,” Ronnen said, according to VegNews.

Two former executives from McDonald’s have joined forces with celebrity chefs Art Smith and Tal Ronnen to create a menu for a new chain of healthy restaurants that will be very vegan-friendly, Lyfe Kitchen. The first Lyfe restaurant will open in Palo Alto, California this summer and the two hope to expand to 250 restaurants serving made to order cuisine like Panera Bread or Chipotle.

Faster food is the only vestige former McDonald’s President and Chief Operating Officer Mike Roberts and former communications boss Mike Donahue are bringing from their old establishment. Besides vegetarian and vegan options, there will be no fried food and every menu item will contain less than 600 calories.

No McHigh Fructose Corn Syrup, McButter or McCream is allowed either.

In-N-Out supposedly has a secret menu that is not so secret.

Okay.

After Patch discussed their experiences with ordering off the covert menu, CNN repeated the experiment to see if they could get world class customer service by ordering and receiving items like, “Flying Dutchman,” “Rootbeer Float,” and “Animal Style Fries.”

It worked.

On that secret menu includes a veggie burger, which isn’t really a burger, but vegetables between a bun. There’s also a grilled cheese–basically the same as the veggie burger but the cheese is melted.

Not bad for a fast food establishment. But can we do better? In the words of the current U.S. president, “Yes, we can!”

Renowned chefs Alice Waters and Dan Barber have vowed to take bluefin tuna, a critically endangered fish that’s high in mercury, off their menus as part of the Center For Biological Diversity‘s campaign to protect them.

The campaign was launched on November 30, 2010, after the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas refused to take action to protect the species. Both the Western and Eastern Atlantic varieties of bluefin have declined in numbers by 80% since 1970 and 74% between 1957 and 2007, respectively.
