Vegetarian Star

If you thought Kim Kardashian was looking hotter these days, maybe it’s because she’s following a macrobiotic diet that keeps her away from burgers and fries.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians reality TV star told US Weekly Magazine that lately she’s been eating lots of tofu, quinoa, soy cheese, and veggie burgers.

If she keeps this up, she may become vegetarian before sister Khloe does.

The diet change complements her workout regime of 2 hours a day in preparation for filming her 3 part fitness DVD series titled, Fit In Your Jeans By Friday.

Sure hope Kim continues her veggie burger with soy cheese habit once she slips into those  jeans on Friday.

Joanne Rose is featured in Supreme Master TV’s “Vegetarian Elite” video series.

Joanne is an author who’s written both a vegan children’s book, Tommy Tofu Saves The Day, and a sketch comedy called “Date A Vegan.”

“Date A Vegan” humorously exaggerates how vegans behave.

“I became a vegan in 1994,” says Joanne in the video. “I was raised a meat eater. But that’s not through anything else than just conditioning. That’s what we’re used to. Then it was in a cooking class in high school that we learned what a vegan was. We heard about a vegetarian and a vegan. And they said that a vegan just eats plant food. And I was sitting there in the kichen in the cooking class thinking, “Eats plant food?!”  But then it was only a matter of time I was vegetarian. I knew to make that decision-the direct link between animal cruelty and killing of animals.”

Watch the video to see Joanne’s kitty Remy and learn more about Joanne’s passion for veganism.

If you’re looking for the next vegetarian Food Network cook, keep driving past Guy Fieri.

This Guy (pun intended) is so repulsed by that diet that he started fending for himself at a very young age to avoid his parents’ cooking.

From People.com:

“My parents were into macrobiotic cooking—vegetarian, nondairy, whole grains, no red meat. I started cooking when I was 10 because I just couldn’t eat that stuff.”

Guy’s story brings up an important area of discussion many have over the question of forcing a vegetarian diet on their children.

Should veg parents make their kids follow the lifestyle too? At least until they’re old enough to make their own decisions about their food (or old enough to earn money to buy their own groceries?)?

Stella McCartney has been chosen as one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People of 2009.

Blurbs about each of the influential people are written by someone else famous and Gwyneth Paltrow has written Stella’s.

As you can imagine, a good portion of Stella’s bio focuses on her vegetarianism.

“And she is a vegetarian. I mention this because you cannot accurately characterize Stella McCartney, 37, without underlining that she is a vegetarian. Always has been. And even if you are not interested in being a vegetarian, somehow Stella gets you to believe. She manages to convince you (never sanctimoniously, never from a soapbox) that killing animals is needless and cruel and bad for the environment. It may last the duration of just one dinner, but you start to feel a bit sad for your neighbor’s lamb and a bit embarrassed by your chicken.”

Read what else Gwyneth had to say about Stella as well as others’ bios at Time.com.

Kathy Freston blogged about the benefits of skipping chicken once a week on the environment and Vienna Teng is living that example. 

During a recent interview with laist.com, the New York based pianist and singer-songwriter said she finds it hard to be a complete vegetarian (she says she loves Southern fried chicken too much), but agrees with the principles and tries to flex when possible.

“I don’t know LA all that well, but I do love this vegan restaurant, Real Food Daily, in Santa Monica. When I was recording Dreaming Through the Noise, I randomly decided that I was going to be a vegetarian. I basically agree with vegetarianism in principle but I don’t have the willpower to do it long-term. I’ve just been trying to do it in short stretches, and that was one of them. So when I was recording that album in Santa Monica, I probably went to RFD five times a week. I love their bacon cheeseburger!”

Here’s Vienna in her music video “Gravity,” from the album, Waking Hour.

Emily Deschanel is not the only vegan actress to enjoy her local farmers’ market.

Alicia Silverstone recently interviewed with Glamour Magazine where she answers some questions about her vegan diet and lifestyle.

It’s no secret that fresh, organic produce and other staples of a vegetarian or vegan diet aren’t always cheap. Alicia gave some tips for making the transition easier on your pocketbook.

“The best way to save money is to go to a Farmer’s Market. Buy seasonal produce [that is grown locally]. It’s really, really cheap. I spend anywhere from $40 to $60 a week on produce. And that feeds my husband, my dogs, and me. My other grocery bill is a little bit more expensive, but that’s because I like making decadent desserts.”

“I would say to people who are concerned: I don’t go to the doctor; I don’t buy any prescriptions, antacids, or birth control. I don’t suffer from any illnesses. Consider it an investment for your health. And save money on other things. I look to eBay or Craigslist for deals on things to save money. Also, buy what you can in bulk.”

Elizabeth Berkley was spotted grabbing some lunch grub at Real Food Daily this week.

The actress best known for playing Jessie on Saved By The Bell was one of the original PETA Lettuce Ladies.

As a Lettuce Lady, Elizabeth would send her postcard with her ad and a note urging restaurants in the U.S.’ 10 fattest cities to offer more vegetarian selections.

What do you think guys? Would this make you put a veggie burger on the menu?

Wyntergrace Williams, Montel Williams’ daughter, is inviting the Obama girls to get in on the vegetarian school lunch action!

Not long ago, we brought you the news that Wyntergrace is urging everyone to sign a petition asking congress to ensure more vegetarian options are available in school lunches.

This week, she’ll be headed to Washington, D.C. to ask Congress to change the Child Nutrition act to require public schools to include healthy, vegetarian options. She’s also written a letter to Sasha and Malia Obama in hopes they will help her with her cause.

“My name is Wyntergrace and I’m a big fan of yours. It seems that we have a few things in common. We all love dogs, live on the East Coast, have fantastic moms and maternal grand moms and both of our dads are quite famous. In our household we also eat healthy foods and I am working on a school project to get healthier foods in schools across the country. I would love for you to join my campaign and sign my petition and encourage other students and families to follow our own and respective families’ lead.”

“The problem is that many schools do not offer enough healthful choices. This is especially true when it comes to vegetarian meals. A lot of us ask for vegetarian meals out of compassion for animals, like I do, or because of concerns about health or the environment, but all students would benefit from having a variety of healthy options, and other plant-based meals available.”

Read the rest of Wyntergrace’s letter to the Obama girls.
