Vegetarian Star

Top Chef is not off to a good start.

On a recent episode, the cheftestants were asked to cook a dish based on one of their vices and Jen chose a hot and spicy dish because of her temper.

Oh, did we mention the dish was chile relleno stuffed with seitan?

Many of the other cheftestants and judges weren’t exactly thrilled with the vegetarian dish and in the end Jen got sent home.

Wonder if it had anything to do with that ex vegetarian now hamburger hussy Padma Lakshmi?

Watch the clip for a recap of the episode.

Jared Leto isn’t the only one who can save a spider from the death penalty.

Fall Out Boy was hanging out in South Korea when a spider was spied in one of their rooms.

After contemplating what to do with it, including placing it in Cobra Starship’s dressing room, the great veg man Patrick Stump caught the spider and returned it to its proper environment.

Apparently, there are vegetarian spiders who pass on the ants and go for the greens instead.

Watch the clip above to see Patrick and the boys in action. The hardcore spider action starts around minute 3:30.

Shanna Moakler, ex-wife of Travis Barker and a longtime vegetarian, recently took her family to a Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus show.

However, she now regrets that decision after watching video footage on how animals are treated by handlers.

“My family and I attended the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus a couple weeks ago, and I believed—as I know many do—that the circus would treat its animals humanely. I was so deeply saddened when I saw PETA’s video showing the horrific abuse the elephants suffered at the hands of Ringling trainers. I took for granted that people were doing the right thing. I hope everyone watches the video at PETA.org. With this new knowledge, we can draw attention to this issue, make changes, and ensure that animals big and small are properly cared for. No amount of entertainment is worth allowing the torture of other living beings. We will never attend another Ringling Bros. show.”

A memorable bit of news has been brought to our attention.

The late actor Heath Ledger directed the recently released music video for Modest Mouse’s song “King Rat.”

The animated video turns the tables and shows whales hunting humans.

If you download the video over iTunes, the proceeds go to the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.

What do you think? Is the whale at the helm Paul Watson reincarnated?

So if you tuned into Top Chef Masters this week, you know chef Michael Chiarello won the heart and belly of Zooey Deschanel, as well as the week’s winning dish.

Chiarello whipped up a Quinoa Spaghetti with Salsa Verde, Gremolata and Tomatoes.

Here’s a video of Chef Chiarello doing his thing.

If you’re interested in making the pasta dish yourself at home, here’s the recipe.

Nothing better than a man who knows how to make a good meal!

Brendan Brazier, vegan athlete and founder of Vega Nutritional and Energy Products, recently stopped by the G Living Studio to film a segment about green chefs.

Brendan chose to make a raw protein bar with blueberries and chocolate, a recipe straight from his book, Thrive: The Vegan Nutrition Guide to Optimum Performance in Sports and Life.

”I used to make these bars weekly to take on bike rides and to eat before running,” Brendan said.

“Hope you like them.”

Writer, producer, and actor Mike White, who’s film credits include Nacho Libre and School of Rock, has recorded a brand spanking new vegetarian testimonial.

Mike’s “piggy-looking” dog is one of the reasons he decided to stop eating meat and become vegan.

“I would look at him and I’d think, ‘You know, I cannot eat pig anymore’. And besides is my dog really all that different from a pig on a factory farm? They both have their own lives and big personalities and most importantly, the same capacity to feel pain.”

Watch the clip above to hear the PSA from the former Amazing Race contestant.
