Vegetarian Star

2012 had some great moments for vegetarians and vegans.

And some not so great ones.

Here are Vegetarian Star‘s top Not So Vegetarian stories of celebrities and people in the news that have turned heads, offended and or just looked a little ridiculous.

#5. Mayor Bloomberg Washes Down Wieners Without Soda.
NYC’s mayor attended a competitive overeating contest (also known as hot dog eating contest) where the winners consumed dozens of processed, chemical filled animal wieners. He also ate one himself. Thank goodness he found time to attend this in the midst of his campaign to limit soda consumption to curb obesity. Because soda is the only real evil in making people fat. Not 60 hot dogs.

#4 Conan Whips Out His Wiener.
Not exactly indecent exposure, but the World’s Largest Chicago-Style hot dog does expose one to an increased risk of diabetes and cancer.

Good Charlotte brothers Benji and Joel Madden have signed on for a campaign with KFC.

Absolutely cool video of Benji and Joel Madden behind the scenes at Denny’s restaurant, making burritos for Denny’s Rockstar Menu.

Thanks to Joel for the lovely Tweet to direct us there.

The Rockstar menu was created by various musicians who went into Denny’s kitchen and whipped up their favorite grub.

Benji and Joel created a vegetarian burrito with a Boca Burger.

“Kids when you order this, I want you to imagine that we’re back here, making it for you, with love,” says Benji.

We will, Benji. We’ll keep the love alive.

Denny's All Nighter

All you late night fast food junkies can breathe a sign of relief.

At least there’s one place to visit where you can get some decent vegetarian fare at odd hours in the morning.

A few months ago, we told you, at its own risk, Denny’s restaurant let stars like Good Charlotte twin brothers Benji and Joel Madden into their kitchen to whip up burritos so they could attach a celebrity name to it.

The Denny’s Rock Star Menu #3 is out and features the boys’ creation of a Boca burger burrito with shredded cheese, sliced mushrooms, fire-roasted peppers and onions and spicy mayo. Both are served with tortilla chips and ranch dressing.

This option is available starting next week, but we have some unanswered questions.

Originally, vegetarian and vegan options were suppose to be available. While it’s easy to leave the cheese and mayo off, not every Boca burger is vegan.

Did vegans get ripped off? The only way to find out is to give a holler at the restaurant next week!

Lots of rumors were going around the web that “I Kissed A Girl,” singer Katy Perry was romantically linked to Paris Hilton’s ex, Good Charlotte musician Benji Madden.

The two of them were spotted sitting awfully close to each other on Valentine’s Day in Los Angeles.

Perry insists the two are just friends and her heart belongs to her cat, Kitty Purry. Yes, she named her cat after herself. Groan!

“Oh kittens! It’s two pseudo famous people sitting next to each other … doesn’t mean we were bumping uglies!” Katy wrote on her blog.

Well oh kitten purries! Bumping uglies or not, Perry could pick up a few tips for eating vegetarian from her new friend Benji, the non-bumping ugly partner.

Katy said she wanted to become a vegetarian for her New Year’s Resolution, but she liked chicken too much.

Benji could take her into the kitchen and show her how to cook up more than whoopee. Plus, since they both have items on the Denny’s Rockstar menu, they could even combine their culinary skills to make up one hot (or cold, raw is fine too) meal.
