Vegetarian Star

Finola Hughes offers her advice for making good tasting veggie burgers in this clip featuring the soap opera actress and Eliza Dushku.

“Grate up some beet in there,” Finola suggested.

Do you agree with Finola’s taste?

Or does her idea of perfecting a meatless patty make you do a veggie Lisa Simpson move and say, “meh.”

The next time you’re cooking, conduct your own experiment and throw a little beet in The Ultimate Veggie Burger recipe.

Yikes!

Has the golden car used by greenies in Hollywood like vegetarian Ed Begley Jr. and wife Rachelle Carson lost its touch?

“I do feel safe in a Toyota. I just hope they get it together,” she said.

“I wish for everyone to create a strong, sustainable movement to educate every child about food, inspire families to cook again and empower people everywhere to fight obesity.”

—-Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, in a speech at the 2010 TED: Ideas Worth Spreading conference.

Oliver thinks every child should learn to cook 10 meals before they graduate high school.

That’s real cooking, ladies and gentlemen. Emptying a dehydrated packet into dried ramen noodles doesn’t count.

If you have a high school senior heading off to college, start the 10 meal goal tonight by making Oliver’s Vegetable Jalfrezi Recipe.

Watch the clip to hear Jamie’s thoughts on what’s happened to milk–it doesn’t sound pretty.

Healthier seafood is better, but complete vegetarian is best!

Michael Vick‘s documentary of his fall from grace due to dog fighting activities, The Michael Vick Project, premiered this month on BET.

Animal activist or not, the line separating those that believe he’s truly remorseful or just expressed regret as a publicity stunt is pretty deep, and it’s doubtful these clips will do anything to change their opinions.

One interesting note: Michael Vick played football at Virginia Tech, the same state as PETA territory.

One could guess Vick didn’t get the same “Be Cruelty-Free” pamphlets in his dorm mailbox as some other college students did.

Watch the clip below for highlights of the show.

Ellen DeGeneres‘ right hand vegan food man, Roberto Martin, demonstrated how to make vegan chili and nachos on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The recipe, which can be found here, uses lean Mexican flavored soy crumbles and vegan cheese for sprinkling, plus homemade nacho cheese.

The vegan chili sounds delish, but something sounds weird about the homemade nacho cheese, which is mainly made up of tofu and vegan mayonnaise…what the heck did chef Martin do with the nutritional yeast, an ingredient that was seemingly missing, but otherwise normally found in vegan cheese?

Maybe it was nutritional yeast taco seasoning Martin poured in?

Watch and solve the mystery yourself.

Stephen Colbert recently hosted Jonathan Safran Foer on The Colbert Report to discuss his latest book, Eating Animals.

Foer discussed the realities of how factory farms and the mass production of meat affects animals, giving the example that turkeys today don’t get it on.

“The Thanksgiving turkey isn’t even capable of sexually reproducing anymore,” Foer said.

When Colbert asked how turkeys multiply, Foer first joked that they are stimulated by porn.

Stimulated by PETA anti-fur ads featuring naked women, no doubt.

“They’re all artificially inseminated,” Foer claimed.

Not resisting the chance to offend, Colbert placed a plate of bacon in front of Foer, which Foer, keeping in theme with animal reproduction, labeled as merely, “flaccid.”

This year’s Super Bowl featured a variety of commercials that focused on using animation and other technologies to replace the use of live animals that may otherwise be overworked and thrown into an unnatural environment.

PETA may have had their fornicate with vegetables Super Bowl ad banned, but they aren’t bitter about it, and give credit to some great animal friendly commercials, including this Whales of a Tale: Bridgestone video.

“Three friends. One animatronic whale. Millions of happy viewers. Bridgestone also gets extra kudos from us for recently banning the use of endangered animals in all of its commercials!”

Plus, there’s nothing more entertaining than a beaver than plays the fiddle in the Monster.com commerical, right?

Visit PETA to view the entire list of favorite animal friendly Superbowl commericals.
