Well, maybe just focusing on Los Angeles. And she only wants to dominate what people are eating.
Mills, who just opened her vegan cafe and restaurant V Bites, recently Tweeted about her plans to expand her UK business.
“Once V-Bites is perfected we plan to open them worldwide – we have a few willing franchisees there,” Heather said in response to a Twitter follower who wanted to know if she would open one in the LA area in the U.S.
Heather is claiming that V Bites is quite popular, her customers “loving” the recipes.
Gwyneth Paltrow has gained some criticism from the UK vegetarian group Viva! (Vegetarians International Voice For Animals) for demonstrating how to cook roast chicken on her Goop website.
Although once upon a time Gwyneth professed to follow a macrobiotic, vegan diet, her actions over the past year, including wearing fur for a photoshoot and demonstrating how to cook turkey for Thanksgiving, have both disappointed and disgusted her vegetarian fans.
“To hear of a so-called vegan promoting the use of chicken meat is extremely disappointing,” Juliet Gellatley, Viva!’s director, said.
“It not only condemns the cruel conditions that millions of these birds are forced to exist in, but it also shows complete disregard for the damage that the meat industry – including chicken production – is doing to an ever-fragile planet and to peoples’ health.”
“If Gwyneth wants to promote healthy eating, she should think twice about cooking chicken.”
“A medium-sized bird contains almost a pint of fat. It also releases cancer-causing compounds when it is cooked”
“We encourage Gwyneth to rethink her diet. She obviously does care, but needs nudging back in the right direction to veganism”
The fifth annual Taking Action For Animals conference is wrapping up its last day and several stars showed up for a banquet to share their vegan and animal rights experiences.
Nellie McKay talked about her recently adopted pit bulls, who apparently love to eat some vegan things, because they’ve been chewing on her shoes, which she pointed out to the audience.
Humane Society of the United States president and CEO Wayne Pacelle talked about his decision to work with convicted dog fighting ringleader and ex Atlanta Falcons football player Michael Vick.
And Ginnifer Goodwin discussed how various “moments” like pouring milk over her cereal led to her making the vegan transition.
There are numerous ways to pass the time while serving a jail or prison sentence.
Singer Boy George decided to make himself useful during his term by showing off his chef skills in the kitchen during his four months behind bars.
The 80s Culture Club and “Karma Kameleon” star convicted of falsely imprisoning a male escort said he made all the meatless food in prison.
“I’m a pretty good cook and made all the vegetarian food,” George said, according to the Daily Express.
Hey, it probably beats most prison commissary.
Luckily, George had access to all the ingredients he needed to make a good veg dish, as other prisoners, like Lizzy Borden’s Ira Black, aren’t so lucky.
Comments Off on Alicia Silverstone Plus Eco Tools Equals Green Cosmetic Tools Line
Alicia Silverstone has teamed up with EcoTools, a division of Paris Presents, to produce an eco-friendly line of makeup brushes and bags this December.
Silverstone should be prepared for a lot of press this winter, given the fact her vegan diet book, A Kind Diet, is also expected to be released in the fall.
You’ll be able to carry your five-piece brush set in a cosmetic bag made from recycled materials and hemp,.
“I only wanted to do something that hadn’t been done before,” Silverstone told WWD. “This is a conscious product line that is good for the planet. Unless you need it, it’s just stuff,” she added.
Being the down to earth gal she is, Alicia’s products will be available in drugstores. Along with a five-piece brush set and bag ($16), she’ll have a cosmetic bag ($9); a cosmetics brush bag ($13); a train case ($15); and an overnight bag in the set ($20).
This lovely photograph captures Owen Wilson and Woody Harrelsonvacationing in Italy on a raft titled, “Wet and Wild.”
The pic conjures up all sorts of ideas in our minds, but one that particularly sticks out is what the two boys are saying to each other in the tangle.
Given the fact Owen was spotted getting takeout at a popular vegan restaurant, and now he’s hanging out with the fanatical raw vegan foodie Harrelson, seeing the two of them together makes us (wishfully) think Woody might have given Owen “the talk”…about going veg.
Since vegetarianism and veganism are ongoing dialogues, they could possibly (alright, very remotely) have been talking about the veg life at that very moment!
But what do you think they’re saying to each other?
