Vegetarian Star

Just because Natalie Portman is and has been a longtime vegetarian, doesn’t mean her child will automatically enjoy dining at a restaurant that serves such food.

The actress was spotted at Flore Vegan in Silverlake, California with one-year old son Aleph, who was not happy with mom’s choice and would not stop crying.

That’s too bad, considering Flore Vegan even has a complete child’s menu, featuring a burrito with black beans, cashew cheese and avocado; Tofu Egg Salad Sandwich; Cashew Cheese Quesadilla; and variety of veggie burgers including Portobello Seitan.

Any of these dishes wash down well with “Babycino,” a steamed soy milk beverage.

Timothy Bradley came out a champion at the welterweight competition at MGM Grand in Las Vegas this weekend.

Bradley beat Manny Pacquiao, an undefeated fighter since 2005, who was favored to win the match.

But even though he’s defeated legends like Oscar de la Hoya, Pacquiao was no match for superstars like tofu, beans and grains, as Bradley fought that day on an entirely plant-based diet plan he created specifically to prepare him for competition.

Celebrity named entrees go together like vegan marshmellows, cocoa and grahams.

Twig & Barry‘s, a new restaurant in Bourbonnais, IL has named a vegetarian sandwich on its menu in memory of the Apple guru famous for living a plant-based lifestyle, Steve Jobs.

The Steve Jobs Veggie Sandwich includes cucumber, tomato, hummus, avocado, sprouts and yogurt-dill sauce on baked ciabatta.

Doesn’t sound like a bad deal, considering it will only set you back by $5.

Haute Living reports Reed enjoyed fresh summer salads and veggie “sushi” rolls and a vegan chocolate cake from Red Velvet Cafe.

At least someone is following the advice to stop eating meat in public.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi dined with President Barack Obama and several other leaders in Washington, including House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev).

The Atlantic reports Pelosi ordered a “vegan sub with sprouts” from Taylor Gourmet, an Italian deli and market specializing in Philadelphia-style hoagies that happens to have a separate vegetarian menu with several sandwich options.
