Vegetarian Star

Bill Maher has collaborated with the Humane Society of the United States to record a PSA informing consumers that International House of Pancakes, IHOP,  continues to get eggs from suppliers that confine hens in battery cages.

It’s so cruel that Bill has nicknamed IHOP “International House of Pain.”

“You may come hungry to IHOP, but you shouldn’t leave happy,” Bill says.

“Not as long as they only use eggs from hens crammed into tiny cages, where they can barely move an inch.”

Maher points out that other restaurants like Denny’s and Burger King are using some cage free eggs, but IHOP has failed to make progress.

Sounds like IHOP needs to HOP on the progressive bandwagon and phase out this cruel method of obtaining eggs.

“Hold On. I want to address this chocolate thing,” Tobey jokes.

“There is a rice milk chocolate–a vegan rice milk chocolate that I eat.”

As you know by now, Natalie Portman recently went vegan after reading Jonathan Safran Foer‘s new book, Eating Animals.

Nat was interviewed at the Gotham International Film Awards when she was asked how on earth she survives without her ice cream.

“There’s still Rice Dream and soy milk ice cream and occasionally if you can find ethically produced dairy, you can have it,” Natalie said.

How does a vegan get their ice cream fix?

Ha!

That’s like asking a veggie how she gets her protein.

Alicia had a lot to say about what being vegan “doesn’t” do for you.

Celebrity chefs who show the vegan love are always welcome in the kitchen!

Wolfgang Puck and Ellen DeGeneres got together to make a vegan pizza piled high with local vegetables from a farmer’s market.

Puck is a regular at the farmer’s market and Ellen said that it’s “important to support farmer’s markets” while Puck added “local farmers are really the best,” while getting cheers from the crowd.

Besides supporting local economy and getting fresher ingredients, think of all the fuel you help save by not picking up produce that crosses more lines than rings in an onion.

Watch Ellen and Puck create pizza that’s not only vegetarian, but vegan.
