Vegetarian Star

While we’re on the subject of stocking environmentally conscious food while on tour, it may be a good time to discuss how Guster’s Adam Gardner fuels himself on the road.

The singer and guitarist spoke with Maria Rodale for a Q & A featured at the Huffington Post, where Gardner revealed the importance of buying organic food as an environmentalist.

Prince Charles has been an outspoken proponent of organic farming for some time, and he recently gave the Times Online a glimpse into the Highgrove farm and garden.

He denies the notion that organic farming isn’t a sustainable way to feed people, citing that although organic food costs more, people were paying three times as much for their food 30 years ago.

“Organic production costs more because of the effort and the management and the time that has gone into it,” he said. “Yet 30 years ago people were spending 30 per cent of their income on food, now it’s 10 per cent, so it’s all relative.”

Perhaps their health care costs were cheaper three decades ago too, as now mass produced and processed foods have contributed to obesity and other lifestyle related diseases, the effects of such wreaking havoc on both human and animal health.

“I’ve always felt that if you rely on endless inputs, artificial, chemical, goodness knows what, and if you treat animals like machines, it is not durable in the long term because nature will rebel. If you imagine that dairy cattle will produce quantities of milk that Nature never intended, and feed them on food that Nature never intended them to eat, like these huge feed lots in the United States and elsewhere which I think are an abomination and immoral, you will have a problem with type 2 diabetes. You’re producing cheap food but you’re actually creating more expense elsewhere in the chain.”

Recently dismissed Survivor “Heroes Vs. Villains” contestant Amanda Kimmel may have worked as a hiking guide before finding her way in the jungle on the CBS reality TV series, but she won’t be returning to the woods.

“I’m really passionate about organic food and skin care and actually have been working on three organic fragrances called ‘Wild,'” Kimmel told TV Squad. “They’re coming out soon.”

Organic food must have been hard to come by on the island.

Maybe Rupert wasn’t the only one with a secret food stash.

When in Los Angeles, Kristen Bell can’t get enough of vegan restaurant Real Food Daily.

This she revealed to Black Book magazine in their regular “Where Celebs Go Out” feature, which has included plenty of vegetarian recommendations from stars in the past.

Tony Award winning actress Laura Benanti frequents ABC Kitchen, a New York restaurant that emphasizes locally grown organic foods and ingredients.

ABC NYC is far from vegetarian, but you can find something to suit your meatless palate like the chickpea and white bean soup and the ricotta ravioli.

Skinny Bitch Rory Freedman sat down with Jessica and Matt (and dog TV anchor) from Don’t Steal This Morning Show to discuss her thoughts on organics, raw food, and healthy eating.

Rory got a call from a viewer who wanted to know if organics were worth the dough.

Here’s what Rory had to say:

“Everybody wants to complain that organic produce is more expensive than conventional produce, but here’s the thing: It’s your body and it’s your health. So out of all the things that you’re going to be spending money on whether it’s like bullshit jewelry or clothes or purses or where you live or something for your apartment or your house, the most important thing you can spend money on is what you put in your body.”

Right on, bitch!

The White House Farmer’s Market opened this weekend and drew a good crowd, even during the rain and cold, according to grist.com.

First Lady Michelle Obama made an appearance and was happy the turnout was so good.

“I’ve never seen so many people so excited about fruits and vegetables!” Michelle said.

Wonder if anyone asked her to sign a carrot?

“A farmer’s market is not just about vegetables, it’s about community,” Michelle added.

The First Lady was the first customer and chose produce from The Farm at Sunnyside, an organic producer from Rappahannock, Virginia.

No mention of Mr. Obama attending the Farmer’s Market.

Maybe he was out for another burger run.

The Farmer’s Market will run until October 29.
