Vegetarian Star

Detroit.

Is it Motown? The Motor City? How about the veggie city!

Alicia Silverstone has shared some of her favorite veg spots she either visited or learned about while filming Vamps in the Detroit, Michigan area.

The vegan foodies on the West Coast may get jealous, because this midwestern town is home to so many veg-friendly establishments, they’ll no longer be able to claim California as the mecca for eating meatless.

Memorial Day is one of those meaty holidays where you demand the carnivores cook something veggie far, far away from the meat on the grill. It’s nice of them to do that, but if you’re an extreme health veg diva, it isn’t enough to throw a handful of greasy, salty potato chips on your plate next to your oat and lentils burgers.

Can we get a nutritioius, veggie chip to complement that veggie burger?

To borrow a slogan from a past presidential campaign, “Yes, we can!”

“[Being vegan] changes everything. First of all your looks. You don’t need any expensive creams anymore because you skin, hair and fingernails just look better. And you lose weight – without the yo-yo effect.”

“Before I became vegan I didn’t even know how good I could feel. I don’t have mood changes that much anymore and I am much fitter. You became more sensitive in a good way and you pay more attention to your body.”

–Alicia Silverstone, during an interview with the German edition of Grazia magazine. You’ve heard Alicia’s story. Now it’s your turn. How has going vegan changed your life?

Alicia Silverstone has written a letter to the company that created Dog Wars, the Android app that’s angering dog lovers nationwide, as it allows players to use pit bulls in dog fighting scenarios.

Silverstone addressed the CEO of Google, the owner of Android and Kage Games LLC, the maker of the app.

“When I read about the new game Dog Wars, I couldn’t believe my eyes,” Silverstone wrote. “As a mom-to-be and someone who has adopted and loved rescued pit bulls, I join PETA’s millions of members in imploring you to cancel this game immediately. If one dog dies as a result of this game, you will not forgive yourself.”

“I wanted people to have an opportunity to really be kind to themselves—once and for all, have everything they ever dreamed of, like the strongest immune system, the most beautiful skin, increased energy so they are just so vital, and reduced risk of illness—from the really scary ones like cancer, heart disease, diabetes and arthritis to allergies and asthma. The great news is that in that process you are also being kind to the planet and also kind to other creatures and also kind to children and people of the world who have no food. So it really just sums up what is possible through our food choices.”

–Alicia Silverstone, during an interview with Gourmet Live on her book, The Kind Diet. The entire interview with Gourmet Live is available through the free Gourmet Live app, which can be downloaded here.
