Vegetarian Star

Finola Hughes offers her advice for making good tasting veggie burgers in this clip featuring the soap opera actress and Eliza Dushku.

“Grate up some beet in there,” Finola suggested.

Do you agree with Finola’s taste?

Or does her idea of perfecting a meatless patty make you do a veggie Lisa Simpson move and say, “meh.”

The next time you’re cooking, conduct your own experiment and throw a little beet in The Ultimate Veggie Burger recipe.

Maxim recently unveiled its Hot 100 List and a vegan lady is numero uno!

Olivia Wilde, star on Fox’s House, tops the charts and beat out other meat eating woman like Megan Fox, Eliza Dushku, and Rhihanna.

Olivia made Maxim’s 100 Hottest women in 2008-but barely hanging on the ladder at #97.

We suspect her sudden rise to the top has something to do with her veganness. Really, we heard plant based foods do wonders for the hair and skin.

Olivia had been “mostly vegetarian” with the exception of a plateful of flipper here and there. Then, earlier this year, she made the announcement on Ellen DeGeneres she’d transitioned into a complete vegan.

“Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “Dollhouse” actress Eliza Dushku angered animal rights groups recently when she announced on the “Jimmy Kimball Show” she took an Elk hunting trip to Oklahoma.

“A lot of people eat meat…and I eat what I kill,” she said in defense when the audience reacted negatively.

PETA responded to her in a statement, “Slaying bloodthirsty vampires on Buffy is brave, but slaying innocent animals where they live and raise their families is cowardly and cruel.”

Plus, it’s more environmentally friendly to slay and eat the vampires on Buffy.

Most of us vegetarians would obviously cringe at Miss Vampire Slayer’s actions, but you can probably bet most people in Kimmel’s audience weren’t vegetarian. And even some vegetarians don’t have problems with the theory of only killing what you need to eat in the wild, as long as it’s done quick and humanely. It’s mass factory farming and its destruction of the environment they’ve got a beef (pun intended) with.

No, most of them drive (or hopefully at least walk sometime to reduce their carbon emissions) to the grocery store and pick up meat that originates from an animal that wasn’t allowed to roam freely, pumped with more steroids than a pro bodybuilder, and slaughtered in the most inhumane way possible.

If killing animals for food worked similarly to misdemeanors, Dushku’s actions are Class C while the majority of meat eaters carry Class A on their records. Hunting for your own food and preparing it, in all its natural blood and guts, makes it impossible for someone to detach themselves from the origin of their food, something most meat eaters have long been able to do.
