Vegetarian Star

Biz Stone‘s segment on The Martha Stewart Show has been posted to Gawker.

“One of the things we like to do is we like to take real comfort food [and make it vegan]. And this particular food is like a stew that’s really great during a rainy day,” Biz said.

Biz revealed that when his wife Livia is cooking at home, he reads books to her while she’s at the stovetop.

“We have a bunch of classic books. We just finished Treasure Island. We have a lot of the Sherlock Holmes stories…That’s kind of like, my role in the kitchen.”

Using Westsoy brand of seitan, Biz and Martha walk through the steps of cooking seitan bourguignon. While Martha is stirring the seitan, Biz jokes, “I guess I should be reading to you.”

When Biz Stone wants pizza delivered, he doesn’t have to worry about ordering one of those weird, cheeseless ones with only sauce and vegetables.

Stone, who is scheduled to make seitan on Martha Stewart’s special vegan episode tomorrow, is lucky enough to live near Amici’s–an East Coast style pizzeria on the West Coast in California that offers vegan pizza topped with the popular Daiya vegan cheese delivered to his door.

The best part about Twitter is getting to update about the good grub you’ve devoured.

Biz Stone, co-founder of Twitter, recently did this about a homemade meal his wife cooked.

“Wow, @Livia just took her homemade vegan lasagna out of the oven — I’m hungry!”

Here’s the finished product.

This puzzle us, because last time we checked, Biz was a vegan.

Is that soy cheese on the lasagna?

We knew we were going to love Biz Stone once we found out he was vegan. But who knew we’d be jumping and cheering for the Twitter co-founder this much.

Biz is following Wyntergrace Williams‘ lead and lobbying Congress to ensure vegetarian meals are included in school lunches.

Biz sent a letter to Rep. George Miller, chair of the House Education and Labor Committee to support the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act, which would add a vegetarian friendly option to children’s school lunches.

It took a little more than 140 characters for Biz to express himself, but we think he’s done it well based on this excerpt.

“Hundreds of thousands of students across the country don’t eat meat, according to a recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study. However, these young vegetarians often can’t find healthy, meatless meals in the school cafeteria … Even students who aren’t vegetarian would benefit from having low-fat, high-fiber vegetarian options.”

The video recorded by Wyntergrace Williams has aired as a commercial in Rep. George Miller’s district.

Oh, giggities. We don’t know exactly how to contain ourselves. We love Twitter, tweet regularly, and hope that you follow us.

So it was a pleasant surprise to learn Biz Stone, co-founder of Twitter, is a vegan!

We tried to bring you the story in less than 140 characters, but you know…that’s kinda difficult. But you can 140 character him @Biz.

In an interview with the New York Times, reporter Maureen Dowd joked that people might not really care what you’re doing (thus, why Tweet about it).

Do you ever think “I don’t care that my friend is having a hamburger?”

BIZ: If I said I was eating a hamburger, Evan would be surprised because I’m a vegan.

Oh, yeah. Go Biz!
