Actor Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight, The Expendables) will star in the second season of a comedy series created by vegan and animal rights activist Joanne Rose that is meant to poke fun of the ups and downs of the lifestyle, Vegan 101.

Like a comical veg version of “The Dr. Oz Show,” Roberts will play Dr. Eaton Wright, a physician who goes vegan and promotes it on his television show, “Eating Right,” using “risque and oddball antics.”

Rose said of Roberts, “[He] is an incredibly talented actor whose passion for the vegan lifestyle and animal rights was the ultimate choice for the second season. I am very excited to have Eric on board.”

“People love to laugh and be entertained. It’s a way of educating others about veganism through unconventional ways. I hope the word “vegan” becomes a strong part of global vocabulary, which will inspire others to learn about the lifestyle through curiosity and fascination. With entertainment, people won’t shun away.”

Joanne Rose

Joanne Rose appeared as a guest on The Jazzy Vegetarian‘s vegan radio show to discuss her web video series, “Vegan 101,” which launched the first episode as a humorous take on vegans dating, “Dating a Vegan.”

Rose has a new ecookbook out, Living In Harmony, which is a gluten-free, vegan recipe book available on the internet, at Veganvision.net.

“It’s makes it more green and easy for everybody to have access to,” Rose said.

Rose shared her recipe for Coconut Yogurt, which uses a Thai coconut, probiotic and flavors to suit your taste like fruit or chocolate.  Listen to the radio show to hear Rose discuss how to make it.

The interview begins around minute 12:00.

Author, model, and actress Joanne Rose gave VegNews magazine some insight into her upcoming video series Vegan 101.

The series are short, comedic skits about veganism. If you recall us telling you earlier, one of the videos involves making fun of dating a vegan. Joanne gave more details about her motivations for creating, Dating a Vegan.

“I wanted to do a take on awkward moments, which seems to be something most vegans have encountered at some stage of dating. I hope to achieve international success so the word “vegan” becomes a strong part of global vocabulary, which will influence others to learn about the lifestyle through curiosity and fascination. With entertainment, people won’t shun away.”

Ok, vegans, it’s time to let loose. Tell us all your horror and humorous stories you’ve encountered while dating. Did you spend the first three dates answering food questions? Prince charming try to sneak meat in your food at the dinner table?

What about the carnis or flexers? Did you get sick of your vegan babe taking 20 minutes to order food because he kept asking about ingredients?

Joanne Rose is featured in Supreme Master TV’s “Vegetarian Elite” video series.

Joanne is an author who’s written both a vegan children’s book, Tommy Tofu Saves The Day, and a sketch comedy called “Date A Vegan.”

“Date A Vegan” humorously exaggerates how vegans behave.

“I became a vegan in 1994,” says Joanne in the video. “I was raised a meat eater. But that’s not through anything else than just conditioning. That’s what we’re used to. Then it was in a cooking class in high school that we learned what a vegan was. We heard about a vegetarian and a vegan. And they said that a vegan just eats plant food. And I was sitting there in the kichen in the cooking class thinking, “Eats plant food?!”  But then it was only a matter of time I was vegetarian. I knew to make that decision-the direct link between animal cruelty and killing of animals.”

Children and vegetables don’t always mix. But celebrities and vegetables do.

Joanne Rose is an Australian born actress who has made several appearances on the American big screen, including “CSI: New York”.

She is also one of the original lettuce ladies of PETA and has authored several books, including a children’s book, Tommy Tofu Saves the Day.

Tommy Tofu and several friends, including Polly Potato, Casey Carrot, Zachary Zucchini and Lucy Lettuce help teach kids why veganism is important. And even if you and your child aren’t vegan, they still do a lot to emphasize the importance of fruits and vegetables.

The book has received praise from noteworthy celebrities, including Skinny Bitch author Rory Freedman, who thought it was “adorable, educational, and fun.” Ed Begley Jr. said it was “creative and educational at the same time,” and a “must have for every child.”
