It’s high time the veggies got their own Food Network show and during a screening of The Next Food Network Star, Bob Tuschman, senior vice president of programming and production said that a vegetarian chef isn’t out of the question, it’s just a matter of finding the right personality.

“I think if we found a great, break-out personality, yeah [a vegetarian show would work], but our food shows are driven first and foremost by our talent,” Tuschman said. “So when people go to the Food Network, you think of the talent you love on it…I think if we found a great personality, then sure.”

TV Squad has nominated former Top Chef contestant Carla Hall, who’s a vegetarian that whipped up several veggie dishes during the show’s competition, suggesting Hall’s persona and pecan tofu would attract both the carnivores and plant eaters.

Colin Beavan, better known as the guy who’s family attempted to live a zero impact lifestyle in New York City in the film, No Impact Man, has written an article titled, “My Top 10 Eco Lifestyle Changes.”

What is number one on Colin’s list for an eco friendly life?

Giving up meat!

“Worldwide, beef production contributes more substantially to climate change than the entire transportation sector. Plus, a diet with no or less beef is better for you anyway.”

Oh, so true!

He’s the (no impact) man!

Giving up bottled water and biking or walking from point A to B also top Colin’s list.
