Sweet fruit is bathed in orange juice, wine and garnished with cinnamon, chocolate and fresh mint.

These desserts are as visually beautiful as they are sweet. The pear’s shape, including the stem, is held intact for an astounding presentation.

Blair River "Heart Attack Grill"

Blair River, the spokesman for Heart Attack Grill, a restaurant known for its unhealthy, super-sized fatty meals like the Quadruple Bypass Burger and Flatliner Fries, has died at the age of 29.

Besides promoting dishes with names to match the medical conditions one might develop if they ate there regularly, Heart Attack Grill offered anyone who weighed over 350 pounds free food.

Some are pointing a finger to flu or pneumonia as the reason for River’s death.

According to some experts, his weight–575 pounds–may have played a factor in him succumbing to the virus. Yes, along with high blood pressure and heart disease, washing down fries cooked in pure lard with the butterfat shake may prevent some from fighting off what simply throws everyone else in bed for a week or two.

Thumbs Up Cat Jimmy Is Tough Critic (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, March 3rd, 2011 in Animal Issues, Humor, Offbeat, Research + Science, Videos.

Anyone who’s ever owned a cat knows how picky the little creatures can be.

Wouldn’t it be nice if they gave you the “thumbs down” when they didn’t like the new litter instead of defecating outside the box?

Jimmy is a polydactyl cat, meaning he has a congenital physical anomaly that causes more than the usual number of toes on his paws. You may find more cats like him on the East Coast of the United States or in South West England.

Jimmy is one opinionated cat who puts the movie critics to shame.

We bet Jimmy gives thumbs up to spaying and neutering, shelter adoption and lots of love. Thumbs down to buying pets from shops and that annoying dog next door that jumps over the fence just to bark at him and poop in yard.

Waka Flocka Flame PETA Ad Preview (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, March 1st, 2011 in Animal Issues, Male Singers, Videos.

Waka Flocka Flame‘s anti fur ad for PETA is set for release soon and Rumor Fix got an exclusive behind the scenes interview and footage from the shoot.

Basically, Waka is stripping down to nothing but a gold necklace, but Rumor Fix will only show the G-rated version. Darn those wholesome, family values-carrying reporters!

After researching what PETA stands for, Waka agreed that doing an “Ink Not Mink” ad that shows off his tattoos to promote not wearing fur was perfect way for him to make a statement about his love for animals, which includes a family dog that was named after his mother, Rose Antney.

“I don’t want anybody to beat my dog, scare my dog or whip my dog,” Waka said.

Charlie Sheen may be in the dog house, but his ex-wife knows real pups don’t belong  there.

Access Hollywood Live kicked off a monthly pet adoption series that will air during its one hour daily entertainment talk show.

Denise Richards helped launch the program last Friday, along with her friend Rascal, a tan-colored Chihuahua rescued from the Los Angeles area.

Each monthly segment on Access Hollywood Live will feature animals available for adoption. Utah-based Best Friends Animal Society will help viewers who are interested in adopting the animal or get them in touch with a shelter in their area where they can give a four-legged friend a home.

“Thanks to Access Hollywood Live, this monthly animal segment will surely help us save more lives and result in many animals finding their forever home,” Richards said.

The video featuring Richards on the kick-off segment can be viewed below.
