Vegetarian Star

Martha Stewart will feature gluten-free, vegan products on her show on Thursday April 29.

Martha will host the founder of NoNuttin, a line of granola bars, snacks and baking ingredients that are dairy free, egg free, nut free and gluten free.

And according to NoNuttin’s website at NoNuttin.com, there are absolutely no animal by-products in the foods, including honey and gelatin.

The Canadian based company sent a sample of their granola bars to the producers of the Martha Stewart show who were impressed with what they tasted and decided a segment about allergy friendly granola bars would work.

Yeah, business deals often go over well when there’s a full stomach of goodness at the table.

It was the attack of the Attack of the Show host on Tuesday when Olivia Munn posed in front of both the billboard and poster displaying her PSA against circuses.

A visitor to the event saw that Munn was wearing a pair of boots that resembled leather and decided to make a fuss about it, according to The Superficial.

“I went to the PETA Protest today (4/27) in Los Angeles against Circus Elephants featuring Olivia Munn. It appears Olivia is wearing leather boots. I yelled out, “Are those boots leather?” but the PETA people got in my face and said, “This isn’t a leather campaign.” Olivia said, “They’re not,” but I was not allowed to examine the boots.”

The Superficial reader who called Munn out obviously lives in the dark ages, cause everyone knows about the availability of boots made from synthetic material, only looking like leather on the “superficial.”

Be it vinyl, faux leather, pleather, or whatever you call it, one looking to be fake has every option from an $800 Stella McCartney to a $21 pair from Target.

Maybe he just wanted to cause a scene and sensationalize things?

Thu Tran "Food Party"

Thu Tran is the host of the Independent Film Channel’s Food Party, a cooking show filmed on a cardboard set featuring gourmet meals and puppet guests that arrive to eat them.

Different.

Interesting.

A little freaky.

Anyway, we’d totally show up to eat with the puppets if Thu was cooking corn the way she likes it.

Although admitting to Zap2it she does like meat, Thu loves taking frozen corn and adding several spices to it.

“Sometimes I snack on that cold, but I used to really like to microwave it with three pats of butter and then add cayenne pepper and garlic powder and sugar, and eat that. It’s really good.”

That sounds incredibly delicious, and even the vegans can whip out their Earth Balance and have a good time with this.

The season 2 premiere of Food Party airs tonight at 10PM on the Independent Film Channel.

Take a look at a clip from last year’s show, featuring “Yolk-Oh O No!” having egg issues.

Olivia Munn PETA

Olivia Munn has bared all to spread the message about captive animals in circuses, especially elephants in an anti circus ad for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

According to Ace Showbiz, the ad will be unveiled on a billboard on Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles today, so be prepared for the slowed traffic, open mouths and binocular watching from men in that area.

The ad reads, “As nature intended, let animals be free. Boycott the circus.”

Peta2 has written a few facts about the circus and treatment of animals on its blog.

An interesting fact: Elephants are no sedentary creatures. They may walk as much as 30 miles a day!

However, as Peta2 points out, circuses chain these animals and cart them from city to city, forcing them into such a small space when they’re let out, it’s impossible to even strike a yoga pose.

Martha Stewart loves us!

She’s featuring almost 100 vegetarian recipes on her website to celebrate Meatless Mondays during Earth Week.

There are two slideshows.

Fifty fast meatless main dishes give instructions for cooking up creative dishes like Lighter Eggplant Parmesan, Sesame Noodles and West Coast Grilled Vegetable Pizza.

The 45 meatless comfort food recipes offer meat free ways to create old time favorites like chili using vegetarian black beans and tacos with portabello mushrooms and zucchini.

Martha, who’s Sirius XM radio  host daughter Alexis, is vegetarian, has been regularly featuring vegetarian friendly segments, from her meatless Thanksgiving ideas to celebrating National Soy Month.

Ellen DeGeneres Comic Book. Bluewater Productions

Ellen DeGeneres Bluewater Productions Comic Book has already sold out and is being reprinted next month.

That’s great news for the Humane Society of the United States, who benefits from a portion of the proceeds from the book, but members of the Sportsmen’s Alliance are targeting the book’s production company like they target deer in the forest.

After an unsuccessful attempt to halt the book’s relationship with the Humane Society by writing to the publisher, the group posted on their website an urge for members to contact Bluewater individually.

And so they did.

“Headed by vegans” is what one writer said of the Humane Society.

The horror!

“I am amazed that a comics publisher would elevate a person of ‘DeGenerates’ (sic) background …Children are the readers of comics, and they do not need indoctrination into less-than-acceptable lifestyles…”

A more appropriate lifestyle suggestion was not included, but it could be assumed it consists of teaching children to mount animal heads on the wall and eat anything you’re capable of shooting.

Bluewater publisher Darren Davis explained it is completely up to the celebrity what charitable organization profits from sales.

“Ellen chose the Humane Society” said Davis, “an animal rights organisation she has supported for years.”

The Humane Society, as well as any other charity a celebrity featured in the comic book series chooses, receives 30% of the profits from sales.

George Lamb, British radio and television personality, has gone vegetarian after slaughtering a goat for television.

According to The Sun, George and his father Larry Lamb were filming with an African tribe for the ITV2 series The Parent Trip, and the goat slaughter was a big event for the day.

Since George and Larry were guests of the chief, it was considered an honor to have the goat slaughtered.

George went along with it because he didn’t want to offend his hosts.

George had to kill the goat with a pen knife and eat it live.

“It was horrible. When you hold the animal and feel the life go out of it, it’s a real eye-opener.”

George has yet to touch a piece of meat since filming wrapped up last November.

“It’s made me see it in a different light – the process of how a piece of meat ends up in a supermarket.”

Dr. Oz must live by his wife’s advice now.

After he and Lisa appeared on The View together, the Mrs. revealed that although she’s been a vegetarian since age 15, it took a little nudging from her to get the doctor putting the right prescription for food in his body.

But he’s not vegetarian yet.

However, Oz is a big fan of a plant based diet, recommending a meat loving cowboy on his show go vegan for 28 days in an effort to cleanse his system.

Plus, he’s all about getting dirty when it comes to what you eat.

“The body is designed for whole foods — foods that come out of the ground,” Dr. Oz said. “And if the foods you are eating are not of that nature, eventually you can’t process them.”

Groundling foods include nuts, fruits and veggies.

And low fat items don’t grow from the ground, so don’t let their clean labels fool you.

“They have to put something else in place of that fat. Low-fat foods don’t grow on trees. And when they chemically modify food, it becomes a game for you and your mind can’t win.”

Heart healthy, cholesterol lowering olive oil came from the ground.

Low-fat margarine, buttery tasting weird substitute with ingredients and preservatives you can’t pronounce grew from the laboratory.

Sounds simple enough.
