The Travel Channel recently featured veggie burgers in its Burger Paradise show.

According to the clip, the first official veggie burger was created in London in the 80s.

A southern California restaurant that only serves veggie burgers was featured.

“Vegetarians and vegans love their burgers just as much as meat-eaters. Packed with fresh vegetable, bean, rice and soy ingredients, each veggie patty is jam-packed with flavor. Established in 1977, The Spot has been a fixture in the Hermosa Beach community ever since. Who are the biggest customers? According to owner Tonya Beaudet, carnivores come in flocks to sample the veggie burger’s unique flavor.”

“The Spot” in Hermosa offers a twist to the traditional deep fried french fry side–a scoop of wholesome brown rice instead.

Ellen DeGeneres, Jonathan Safran Foer “Ellen DeGeneres Show”

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, March 11th, 2010 in Animal Issues, Authors, Food & Drink, Videos.

Jonathan Safran Foer spoke with Ellen DeGenres on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where he created the scenario of whether or not people agree it’s okay to eat meat.

Foer said that while most people say yes, the answer may change when you consider the consequences of modern day factory farming like reduced antibiotic efficiency, environmental damage and pregnant animals living unnatural lives confined in cages.

“Nobody wants that,” Foer said. “I don’t care how much or how little you care about animals.”

Cinematical has a brief description of the film:

The Cove director Louie Psihoyos and Ric O’Barry were caught on the red carpet, where Louie spoke about the Sea World tragedy and the idea of mammals being held in captivity.

“One animal killing three people in one lifetime shows these animals are stressed, they don’t belong in captivity,” he said. “And when we capture them out of the wild and force them to do stupid tricks for our amusement, it says more about our intelligence than it does theirs.”

The Cove won Best Documentary at last night’s Oscars.

O’Barry mentioned how the film’s nomination helped bring attention to the “largest dolphin slaughter in the world,” and hints he’ll be back to work fighting for animals after the post Oscar party ends.

Jimmy Kimmel Says Tasty Animals Prevent Vegetarianism (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010 in Not So Vegetarian, TV Hosts, Videos.

Jimmy Kimmel told Ginnifer Goodwin he’s considered going vegetarian, but there’s something about a roast that prevents him from doing so.

“I thought about it. I tried to run it through my head that maybe it’s not a good idea. But then they come out so delicious,” he said.

Ugh!

Horrible humor even for a late night talk show.

But Ginnifer offers some support, explaining the call of meatballs sounds just as sweet as it did years ago.

“I told everybody I did not stop eating animals because I did not like the taste,” Ginnifer said.

Luckily, there’s a solution to both of their problems.

Faux meat! Faux meat! Faux meat!

Pamela Anderson Banned Ad Looks Really Milky (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010 in Actresses, Food & Drink, Videos.

An advertisement for an Australian based Internet company featuring Pamela Anderson has been banned by Australia’s Advertising Standards Bureau.

The ad features Anderson talking to a male co-worker when suddenly the male co-worker starts to fantasize about Pamela and another woman drenched in milk.

Supervegan questioned Pamela for starring in an ad containing dairy, given the fact she is such an staunch animal rights advocate.

However, Pamela could have requested soy milk or she may very well have a body double.

Take a look and decide for yourself.

Are these two hot women being covered with phytoestrogen juice?
