Vegetarian Star

Amanda Cohen of Dirt Candy

Looking for a brand of vegetarian sausages to add to your faux meat palate?

Amanda Cohen, owner and chef at Dirt Candy in New York City, says Field Roast Sausages do it for her.

“I had pretty much given up on fake meat before I came across Field Roast vegetarian sausages, which are hands-down the best vegetarian sausages out there,” Amanda told lunchboxbunch.com.

Field Roast Sausages come in three varieties, Italian, Mexican Chipotle, and Smoked Apple Sage.

“Sometimes I’m amazed that we are still breathing. With horrible abuses of animals, the planet and human kind, it’s amazing that we are still here. But now I’m really afraid that our beloved country, America, is standing on its last wobbly legs. I’m worried that the karmic effects of our negative actions will finally come home to roost. Our lack of compassion and love could actually consume us. However, we are still being given signs from the universe, glimpses of hope and opportunities to rise up and live up to our promise. The whole world wants us to succeed. The whole world wants us to lead.”

—Russell Simmons, in an article at huffingtonpost.com on America’s future.

If America is expected to be the leader, how close is it to setting a good example for animal welfare and nutrition for its citizens?

Much like Bryan Adams exposed himself to Rachael Ray, Alicia Silverstone has also opened her refrigerator to allow the celebrity chef and everyone else see what she might stock in any given day.

Here’s a peek for you food voyeurists:

RR: I don’t like regular mayonnaise, but I see you have Vegenaise—does that taste anything like mayo?

AS: I have friends who eat meat who started eating Vegenaise and love it—I don’t see any difference at all. If anything, it’s richer and creamier. You should try it!

RR: We’ll see—it’s a texture issue for me. You have almond butter in there—do you like it better than peanut butter?

AS: I know almond butter is better for me, but I do sometimes eat peanut butter. I use it mostly to make my version of Rice Krispies Treats, which I’m very proud of. I’ll give you the recipe!

Actually, we can do that.

Miranda Kerr, model and girlfriend of Orlando Bloom, is planning to publish a diet and nutrition book later this year.

Miranda considers herself mostly vegetarian and follows a diet based on blood type.

Could there be another vegetarian diet book to add to your shelves soon?

I know what works for me,” Kerr told Grazia Australia. “Primarily I’m vegetarian, but I will eat a small amount of fish and chicken – and once in a blue moon I’ll have a steak.”

“I am conscious of not only maintaining but promoting a healthy lifestyle and I wouldn’t be able to sustain the hectic nature of my modelling commitments if I wasn’t 100 percent committed to feeding my body the food, vitamins and minerals it needs,” she added.

Miranda was defending herself after a swimsuit photo shoot for Grazia Australia made it look like she had lost a dramatic amount of weight.

“The exaggerated poses for the shoot have made me appear thinner than normal from behind, but I am the same weight and measurements I have maintained for more than three years,” she said.

Morrissey is the kind of vegetarian that will fire an employee for biting on a fish sandwich.

So it’s ironic that a ticket sold for one of his upcoming shows comes with a coupon for a free burger, as was discovered and Tweeted by former Reno 911 star Thomas Lennon.

“No joke. My Morrissey Ticketmaster print out tickets come with a COUPON FOR A DENNY’S HAMBURGER. Classy, Ticketmaster,” Lennon Tweeted, supplying the photgraphic evidence here.

The ticket was purchased for Morrissey’s Dec. 10 performance at the Gibson Amphitheatre.

In defense, Denny’s issued a statement about their veg friendliness including a recent Boca Burger burrito addition to the menu.

“We <3 Moz & vegetarian friends,” they wrote.

Kristen Bell recently did an interview with Women’s Health magazine where she revealed that although she went vegetarian at the age of 11 for animal rights, mom made sure she retained her healthy eating habits.

“I try to eat as many colors as possible. My mom taught me that when I was little. If you’re plate is colorful, you’re probably doing a good job.”

Kristen’s exercise routine consists of  lots of yoga, strength training, walking her dogs, and taking the stairs whenever possible.

“I try to eat more fresh foods than processed ones, and the grainiest bread possible.”

Maybe the Grain Council will recruit Kristen to be their next grain “it” girl.

Kellie Pickler made a Tweet about the new stray animals that keep coming back to her place.

“thanksgiving is right around the corner. funny how all the turkey’s hang out in my yard. I guess they know I’m a vegetarian.”

Ah, must be nice knowing there’s a vegetarian safe haven on the planet in the midst of millions of other turkey beheading Sarah Palin households.

BTW, if no turkeys are showing up in your backyard, you can still have a pet of your own through the Farm Sanctuary Adopt-A-Turkey program. For $25, you can sponsor a turkey living at the sanctuary.

Although it’d be great if you guys could be pen pals, currently calligraphy isn’t taught to the birds on the sanctuary.

The Kind Diet

All this week, we’re hosting a giveaway and three of our lucky readers will receive a free copy of Alicia Silverstone‘s new vegan diet and lifestyle book, The Kind Diet.

Every day until the end of the contest, we’re bringing you a few of Alicia’s thoughts on The Kind Diet, with a reminder to leave a comment to enter to win.

Today, Alicia answers the question of what it means to “eat kind.”

“Eating “Kind” is about being really, really good to yourself and the planet via the foods you put into your body. A plant-based diet filled with whole and organic foods will give you tons of energy, mental clarity, gorgeous skin and a zest for life. But this kindness also extends to the earth itself; by requiring less fuel, water, and other resources, a plant-based diet is much lighter on the planet. And because it is clean, this diet helps our soil, water and atmosphere get healthy as well.”

Don’t miss your chance to learn to eat kinder and help yourself, animals, and the planet.

Enter to win The Kind Diet today.
