Vegetarian Star

2012 had some great moments for vegetarians and vegans.

And some not so great ones.

Here are Vegetarian Star‘s top Not So Vegetarian stories of celebrities and people in the news that have turned heads, offended and or just looked a little ridiculous.

#5. Mayor Bloomberg Washes Down Wieners Without Soda.
NYC’s mayor attended a competitive overeating contest (also known as hot dog eating contest) where the winners consumed dozens of processed, chemical filled animal wieners. He also ate one himself. Thank goodness he found time to attend this in the midst of his campaign to limit soda consumption to curb obesity. Because soda is the only real evil in making people fat. Not 60 hot dogs.

#4 Conan Whips Out His Wiener.
Not exactly indecent exposure, but the World’s Largest Chicago-Style hot dog does expose one to an increased risk of diabetes and cancer.

One half of the delicious looking Good Charlotte twins, Joel Madden, recently engaged in some very dirty Twitter talk!

He corresponded with a fellow follower about Hamburger Helper and Tuna, stating it was one of his favorites!

But what about his vegetarianism?

Read the dialogue for yourself.

@JoelMadden “I just made some mean hamburger helper with my secret add on’s – wait grown ups can still eat hamburger helper right?”

@nerandhas “Hamburger and tuna helper are some of my favs, i plan on passing them on to my children.”

Gasp!

Not only is he saying that he likes the stuff, but he wants his kids to pick up on the bad habit?

Sure hope that Hamburger helper is made with Boca crumbles!

Absolutely cool video of Benji and Joel Madden behind the scenes at Denny’s restaurant, making burritos for Denny’s Rockstar Menu.

Thanks to Joel for the lovely Tweet to direct us there.

The Rockstar menu was created by various musicians who went into Denny’s kitchen and whipped up their favorite grub.

Benji and Joel created a vegetarian burrito with a Boca Burger.

“Kids when you order this, I want you to imagine that we’re back here, making it for you, with love,” says Benji.

We will, Benji. We’ll keep the love alive.

Denny's All Nighter

Veg Brothers Benji and Joel Madden of Good Charlotte recently made vegetarian and vegan burritos at Denny’s in Los Angeles!

The burritos will be available on Denny’s Allnighter Rockstar Menu.

Yes, Canadians may have their KFC vegan faux chicken sandwich, but now folks in the U.S. have another veg option in a traditionally fast food restaurant.

Since Benji and Joel are both known and outspoken vegetarians as well as known rockstars, who better to choose to be the poster boys of veg Denny’s?

The Rock Star Menus were created when Denny’s allowed musicians like Katy Perry, Taking Back Sunday, Boys Like Girls, and Hoobastank into the kitchen (dangerous, we know) to cook up what they like to chow down on after hours.

Benji and Joel’s creations will be featured on the third Rock Star Menu, which is launching this summer.

Men with guitars are sexy enough. Men with guitars who can cook are almost too much to handle. 

You can view more pics of the Madden brothers in Denny’s Kitchen over at Denny’s blog.

Paris Hilton’s parents are absolutely thrilled with their daughter’s latest boy toy, Good Charlotte rocker Benji Madden.

They’re already referring to him like family, according to Robin Leach’s Vegas Luxe Life Blog.  So just what makes Benji such a good man? 

Momma Hilton Kathy said:

“He’s changed her life—and I really think she’s genuinely in love for the first time. He’s so good to her and for her. We couldn’t be happier for them. This has honestly become the real thing.”

But most importantly, Papa Hilton Rick said:

“Benji is the perfect example of, ‘Don’t judge a book by its cover. He is polite, well mannered, and he even calls me sir. We love him like family already. Benji doesn’t drink, doesn’t smoke and is a healthy vegan!”

Papa Hilton giving props to Benji being a vegan? Wooohooo!

Paris and Benji have said they have plans for marriage, but nothing is definite yet. If you recall us telling you, the two had a meal after the premiere of her new movie Repo! The Genetic Opera where Benjji ate vegetable spring rolls, but Paris gobbled up some disgusting mini cheeseburger sliders.

If daddy is so impressed with Benji’s veganism, will he convince his little girl to follow her (future) husband’s lead?
