Vegetarian Star

Sandra Bernhard recently made a Tweet about the vegan breakfast sandwich she was eating.

“enjoying a light life vegan bacon tomato sandwich for breakfast love my alvarado street california style protein bread you can get it in ny”

Sandra has the bacon, tomato, but did she leave off the lettuce for a complete vegan B.L.T.?

Oh, well, maybe she’s just a B.T. girl instead.

We have to side with Sandra on the veggie bacon, though, regardless of the fixings she chooses. Lightlife not only makes faux bacon from soy protein, they also have a tempeh bacon variety.

Our animal advocate friends down under at Animals Australia Unleashed had the pleasure of speaking with the lovely vegetarian singer Pink.

Pink has been helping animals her entire life, rescuing injured ones when she was a child.

Her biggest contribution to saving animals nowadays is refusing to eat them, and she shares this as a tip for those wanting to be involved with animal welfare.

“Rescuing a shelter animal as opposed to a puppy mill or pet shop. Not wearing fur, becoming a vegetarian, donating time or money to a shelter.”

Sounds simple enough.

Pink admitted she’s pretty vocal about her opinions and is not afraid to tell people wearing fur how disgusting they look.

Hey, we believe it. Remember when she said she’d like to make a fur coat out of Kanye West?

Heather Mills has bought the vegetarian food supplier Redwood Wholefood Company.

The UK based company is the leading supplier of veg foods and has ranked high with the Ethical Company Organisation’s list of vegetarian foods suppliers for three years in a row, with a score of 95%.

Redwood produces over 50 different types of vegetarian foods under several brands, including Cheatin’, VegiDeli and Cheezly.

Director Keith Scott said this about Heather’s recent acquisition:

“We are delighted that the business has been acquired by someone with the dynamism and passion of Heather. We’ve been approached by many large food manufacturers in the past but have never wanted to jeopardise the future of our employees – who we value so much – or our factory by selling the business to a large corporation. By selling to Heather we are protecting our loyal staff and also our base in Corby.”

“Heather shares the same values and aims as us, namely to spread compassion across the planet and promote a healthy and more ethical lifestyle,” Rob Garland, an additional director for the company said.

“Heather has always rated Redwood as the best producer of plant-based animal-free foods in terms of ethics, the integrity of the company and brand and the quality of its products.”

Okay, so you’re out with friends and everybody’s hungry, but you’ve been trying to figure out where to eat for the past 1/2 hour because you can’t agree on one place.

You want Chinese, your sig other wants Italian, your best friends wants Greek…arghhhh!

Heather Mills has recognized this issue and plans to put at least two dishes from various International cuisine types to make groups of people like you and your friends happy.

“And the evening menu will include two Thai dishes, and two Indian dishes, and two Italian dishes, and so on; because you know what it’s like when you want to go out for dinner with your friends, and one of them wants Italian, and one of them wants Thai, and you want Indian … well, that won’t be a problem here, will it?” Heather said, in an interview with the UK Guardian about her new vegan restaurant, V Bites.

Problem solved for where to eat. You can even plan ahead by reading the V Bites menu before you go.

Now, if Heather can resolve the argument of paying separately or paying with one check.

Is the happy couple Brangelina experiencing a rift over the dinner table?

According to the UK Daily Mail, Brad Pitt wants partner and mother of his children, Angelina Jolie, to stop feeding the children meat.

A source said, “Brad hates seeing the children eating meat and he’s annoyed with how much red meat Angelina has.”

The source added that Brad wants the family to go vegetarian, but Angelina says that will never happen.

Uh-oh. Nothing like trouble in what would otherwise be paradise.

What do you guys think? Will the Brangelina fam go veg?

Are you living in a mixed meal household that frequently has arguments over how much meat the omnivores are eating?

Shakira has revealed that she once tried being vegetarian after befriending some chickens she met on a farm.

It worked out for those particular chickens who didn’t get eaten. But not so much for their relatives and future descendants.

“I was living in Spain on a farm, and someone gave me four chickens,” said the Hips Don’t Lie singer.

“I named them and they became very close to me. And then I couldn’t eat them. I was like, ‘OK, if I cannot eat these chickens because they actually have names and they are my friends, I am not going to be able to eat any chicken again.’ So I became a vegetarian.”

“I lasted for one month. I tried, I really tried. Yeah, I gave it a go.”

“I didn’t last as a vegetarian – but I did not eat those chickens. I promise those chickens survived.”

Sounds like Shakira should get as excited about soy chicken as Lisa Loeb does.

Singer-songwriter Lisa Loeb recently Tweeted about a snack involving soy chicken.

“Yum! Vegan asian snack! Fresh rolls. Soy chicken. Anyone else psyched? Anyone sad about it?”

We can’t think of any reason to be sad about it. Unless they were rooting for seitan chicken.

Just where can you get your soy chicken anyway? There is an abundance of veggie brands at your local natural foods stores, and even mainstream stores stock a few here and there.

Be on the lookout for these faux chickens who never lost their wings while getting to your plate.

Gardenburger: Carries a breaded faux chicken patty.

Quorn: Not made from soy, but mycoprotein. Yes, it’s a fungus. Sounds gross, but tastes good! Quorn has grilled faux chicken, faux chicken wings, faux chicken nuggets, and more!

Lightlife: Faux chicken fillets, strips, both plan and seasoned with savory flavoring or lemon pepper.

Boca: Breaded faux chicken, spicy faux chicken, nuggets, and even a “chicken on a bun with Swiss” sandwich.

Morningstar Farms: Buffalo wings, nuggets, patties, and herbed patties.

Yves: Smoked faux chicken, Thai lemongrass meatless chicken.

Don’t know about you, but we’re all chickened out!

What’s the most ridiculous thing an omnivore ever asked you? Was it the “do you eat chicken?” question?

Philstar.com has compiled some information on several vegetarian celebrities, including why they went veg, favorite restaurants, frustrating moments as a vegetarian, etc.

Owain Yeoman, Geneva Cruz, Yasmien Kurdi, and Pamela Anderson are all profiled.

Here are a few highlights from the “Funniest Thing Ever Said To Me By Meat Eaters” question:

Owain Yeoman
“Someone once asked me if I wasn’t concerned that vegetarianism will “stunt my growth” and at 6’4” and 190 pounds, the last thing I am worried about is my growth being stunted!”

Pamela Anderson
“It’s pretty funny when a meat eater tells me that he or she is an environmentalist. The meat trade is the number one cause of global warming!”

Geneva Cruz
““WHY?!!!!” My answer is “Why not?!!” There.”

Yasmien Kurdi
“I can’t think of anything specific, but what I’ve told meat eaters is if they want to contract swine flu, bird flu, and all those other animal-borne diseases — or if they want to die an early death — then they should eat meat! Hahaha! I know it’s a bit harsh, but I like to be direct when talking about animal issues and I think this makes meat eaters seriously rethink their diet … though outwardly we laugh about it.”
