Vegetarian Star

“First I debate with them. I love to be right, but will accept when I’m wrong. I respond to every critical email I get. If the critics are being irrational or we can’t agree to disagree respectfully, I say “SUCK IT” and carry on with my mission – which is to help animals.”

—-Chloe Jo Berman, founder of green website girliegirlarmy.com, on dealing with negative criticism of her work.

Victoria Moran recently sat down with some veg food loving eco chicks to discuss all things protein.

The ladies, Emily Deschanel, Marilu Henner, Mariel Hemingway, and Chloe Jo Berman, named a few of their favorite concentrated sources of protein.

Here is a list the gals drafted.

* leafy greens
* beans, especially in chili
* hemp seeds
* seitan
* tempeh
* hummus
* quinoa

We’re thinking you could jot these down and make the list your “cheat sheet” in case you can’t decide what to eat for your next meal.

For you professional vegs who reach into the cabinet and pull a super protein meal or snack together without realizing it, maybe there’s something on here you’ve forgotten about.

Regardless of where you stand in vegetarian knowledge, this list could always come in handy when you get the ever so annoying question from your Big Mac lovin’ cousins of, “How do you get your protein?

Wow. Talk about movin’ on up!

Blogger Chloe Jo Berman of Girlie Girl Army is on the fast track to vegan and ethical fame. She recently appeared on Good Morning America to discuss the issue of vegan pets.

Several celebrities, including Alicia Silverstone, Paul McCartney, and Dennis Kucinich have placed their dogs on a vegan diet.

Silverstone even says her doggies fart less because of it.

But is it healthy?

There’s lots of controversy over whether our pets were truly meant to be carnivores, especially cats, who need certain nutrients like taurine, found in meat products.

Chloe said, “There’s no reason why I should take a life for another life. I don’t understand. If I wouldn’t put her on a plate as dinner why should I do it to a cow or a lamb or a chicken.”

“Who are hungry little vegan doggies?” Chloe asks as she feeds them apples, bread, and tofu.

Go watch the video of Chloe and check out her cute vegan doggies who have been vegan for six years.

And congrats to Chloe for the publicity. You go Girlie Girl!

Ladies we all have a girlfriend we know who owns shoe pairs in the triple digits. Sometimes, depending on the person we’re talking to, we admit that “girlfriend” is us.

But while we’re buying out the discount rack at Payless, are we paying our dues to the environment and animals?

Elizabeth Olsen, creator of Olsen Haus vegan shoes, spoke with bloggers Joshua Katcher, aka, Discerning Brute, and Chloe Jo Berman from the Girlie Girl Army on all things vegan shoe fetish.

And dudes: this is for you too. Elizabeth has some manly vegan shoes in the wings which she hopes to launch in the fall of this year.

Elizabeth has been a vegan herself for the past 2 years and hasn’t eaten meat in 20!
