Vegetarian Star

The video component to Strikeforce MMA champion Jake Shield‘s new PSA promoting vegetarianism.

Shields grew up in a vegetarian household and has never eaten meat in his entire life.

He brushes it off when people tell him he needs to eat meat to be a healthy competitor.

“Just look at my body,” he says in the video. “I’m in shape. I’m healthy, I’m not skinny. It just shows that they’re wrong.”

Pamela Anderson was recently on Larry King Live when Larry King asked Pamela what she thought about the SeaWorld tragedy several weeks ago where a trainer was killed by an animal.

King: Do you think there should be SeaWorlds?

Anderson: I don’t think there should be SeaWorlds. Of course not. They should not be in captivity at all.

A viewer from Facebook told King to ask Pamela what she eats to stay looking so great and Pamela got into her discussion on what a vegetarian and vegan is.

She also talked about her new celebrity signature vegan milkshake at Millions of Milkshakes in Santa Monica, California.

The SeaWorld conversation begins around minute 2:20.

Tiffani Thiessen has partnered with the World Society for the Protection of Animals to spread the word about the organization’s Eat Humane Campaign.

The campaign is meant to educate the public to read food labels to determine if meat, poultry, and dairy was produced humanely.

“Look for cage-free eggs, free-range poultry or grass fed meat,” Thiessen says in the PSA above.

The White Collar actress feels that by doing so, everyone can make a difference in the lives of animals, whether they eat meat or not.

“Eating doesn’t have to be black and white – eat meat or be a vegetarian,” she said in a press release. “The more important thing is that you should make educated choices when buying your food, which can be confusing and misleading with the food labeling system. It is hard to know what you are really purchasing and that is why I filmed this PSA – I wanted to help WSPA inform people about what the labels really mean.”

Zagros, the entrepreneur with a thing for flings, made a comeback on the season finale episode of Millionaire Matchmaker.

He previously broke Patty Stanger‘s rule for no sex unless in a committed, monogamous relationship, a rule she explains by adding, “I’ve got nothing against prostitution, but I ain’t a madam.”

When Stanger asks how he’s changed his ways, Zagros replies, “I’m a vegan now,” to which Stanger replies, “I’m talking about your romantic life. I don’t care about your eating habits.”

Who knows? Zagros’ diet changes may make him a changed man. If he’s no longer feeding himself a steady diet of hormone infused meat, maybe his own “roids” will calm down a little.

Ellen DeGeneres was honored by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine recently by receiving the Voice of Compassion reward.

President and founder of the PCRM, an organization of physicians and others that promotes healthy living through a vegetarian diet and ethics in animal research, Dr. Neal Barnard, arrived at the show to personally present it to her.

Dr. Barnard said Ellen was chosen for the award for working to “expand the circle of compassion” for animals in everything she’s done, which includes donating to the Humane Society, supporting other animal rights campaigns and featuring vegetarian/vegan recipes on the show.

Dr. Oz‘s fit, sexy and lovely wife Lisa recently appeared on The View with her husband, where she explained how she’s been a vegetarian since aged 15.

Dr. Oz gets shamed as Lisa “outs” him on the show, revealing how the daytime guru of health used to eat crap before meeting the woman of his life.

“I grew up with brown rice, whole grains, all organic. I’ve been vegetarian since I was 15.”

Sounds like Dr. Oz needs to invite his lady to the show more often for segments!

Laura Ingraham hosted In Defense of Animal’s Hope Bohanec and the two discussed San Francisco’s recent declaration of observing Meatless Monday in the city.

Ingraham called the movement “elitist” and suggested other issues such as workers’ wages were more pressing.

While it’s true that economic problems may be a great threat now, promoting less meat certainly isn’t subtracting any funds or time devoted to those issues, as the movement is being promoted by small groups devoted to the interest and no one is being taxed for their hamburgers.

Hope mentions that eating just two meals a week vegetarian has a greater environmental impact than buying all food locally.

Ingraham responds with data of her own, saying the whole methane gas from cow farts study was exaggerated.

Watch the debate and decide for yourself.

There’s nothing worse than digging into your favorite microwave pack of sesame noodles, only to later find out there’s fish seasoning in the dehydrated packet.

Developer Faizal Mohammed knew this pain, and created two iphone applications, one for vegetarians and one for those who eat halal.

When you take a picture of the list of ingredients, the app scans the pic and looks for unacceptable ones.

Treehugger says an iPhone 3GS is necessary to take a legible photo of the ingredients that can be read by the scanner.

As of now, only additives are included in the app, which is good, because most of those are the names we don’t quickly recognize.

The one downside is that ingredients such as “natural flavors” can’t be decoded with the app, since the source of the flavors doesn’t have to be listed.

In the future, more ingredients will be added to the database.
