Vegetarian Star

Natalie Portman Vogue

Natalie Portman graces the January 2010 issue of Vogue even better than the skillful ballerina she plays in Black Swan.

The actress reveals she is currently eating vegetarian at home and vegan when she goes out. Seems like it would be easier to find vegetarian options out, but perhaps Nat’s standards for cheese and eggs (non-rennet, cage-free) make it difficult to feel okay about eating simply vegetarian at restaurants where she doesn’t know the source of the food.

The Terminator is helping to terminate hen cruelty in California.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has just signed a law that will require all whole (shell) eggs sold in California to come from hens that were able to, “stand up, lie down, turn around, and fully extend their limbs without touching one another or the sides of an enclosure,” according to the Humane Society blog.

That means California will essentially be a cage-free state.

TLC is airing a special episode of Kate Plus 8 on Sunday, July 11 at 9 pm ET/PT where Kate Gosselin will become a small farmer!

The Dancing with the Stars competitor is said to get excited about the prospect of producing her own organic eggs and enlists the help of some Amish neighbors to help her build a chicken coop.

Good for Kate being a local farmer, but will her eggs really be organic? Is it even possible to define what the heck an organic egg is?

Foer questioned the validity of labeling some animal products as free range and cage free.

“Free range is not even defined,” says Foer. “It has no legal definition whatsoever.”
