Russell Brand learned the hard way how not asking for ingredients can turn a vegetarian’s meal sour. Or fishy.

The actor was sampling a dip while dining out when he realized it tasted like something formerly alive in the sea.

“About three days ago was the last time I ate an animal. I was in a restaurant and they have me some dips. One of them was taramosalata. I didn’t know and ate some and it tasted like disgusting fish,” Brand said.

Phil Mickelson casually said he was working on a veggie burger with Five Guys Burger and Fries restaurant, a franchise he bought the rights to before becoming vegetarian.

A Q & A session with readers at Golf.com reveals he is indeed serious about this, but who knows when Lefty will make it happen. Until then, don’t forget there are several fast food chains that already offer vegetarian patties. No, they aren’t perfect. Many aren’t vegan. Some of them are cooked on the same surface as meat. But if you happen to wander into an establishment during its quieter hours and ask politely, they may clean the grill or toast it in a separate pan or throw it in the microwave.

After hearing the news that casino owner Steve Wynn has mandated all his restaurants serve vegan options, we’ve discovered a source that gives more detail as to how a meat, fish, egg and dairy-free Vegas lover can satisfy themselves at his Las Vegas and Encore resorts.

We’re please to say, after looking over the offerings, there’s no sign of what Vegan.com called a “half-assed grilled vegetable plate slop” at Red 8, Okada, The Pizza Place or any of his other dozen restaurants.

At Okada: cold soba noodles; hot udon; robata grilled vegetables; fried vegetable roll with vegan tempura dipping sauce; agedashi edamame tofu; coconut lime pudding.
