Victoria Beckham‘s been made fun of on here more than a few times due to her inability to cook more than mince meat pie while claiming to be a vegetarian.

Now, Shanna Moakler joins the club of veggies who need cooking lessons.

But at least she’s not teaching herself to cook pork roast for the children.

With the exception of her fish eating tyke, Shanna’s kids eat veg, just like she and Travis.

“I actually just started a cooking class. I go every Wednesday,” Shanna told Celebrity Baby Scoop. “My kids are vegetarians. Atiana is agua-vegetarian (she eats fish), but I love to cook.”

So if she’s not making mince meat, what’s Shanna doing in the kitchen?

“For breakfast: quiche! And my kids love it. I also love pasta. I make it fun for the kids and let them dip their pasta into their sauce. My kids love to cook as well and we make homemade pizza together and cookies. It’s one of my favorite things to do with them: cook!”

Maybe Shanna should pick up a copy of two popular vegetarian cookbooks, The Kind Diet or The Conscious Cook to accompany her in the kitchen next time.

Travis Barker interviewed with Radio Big Boy where confirmed our suspicions that he’s back to eating vegetarian since he quit the diet briefly after a plane crash last year.

Travis has also been toying with veganism, citing the facts he’s learned about the dairy industry as his motivation.

Plus, he’s recruited dear ol’ dad in the game.

RBB: You off of meat again, Travis?

Travis: I’m almost full blown vegan now.

RBB: Cause you were vegan before the accident.

Travis: I was vegetarian. I’ve pretty much cut out dairy as well.

RBB (joking): I was just about to offer you a glass of milk.

Travis: Once you find out all the crazy stuff with dairy, you’d probably second guess it too, man. My pops, he’s a Vietman Vet, hard core, old school-he used to make fun of me cause I didn’t eat meat…Now after being on tour and going to some of the spots, he’s at home trying to find vegan spots in that area.

To hear the entire interview, including Travis’ thoughts on the death of his friend DJ AM, visit Radiobigboy.com.

The vegan conversation starts at Part 3.

More evidence that Travis Barker didn’t abandon his vegetarian ways permanently after an injury a year ago.

A recent Tweet revealed Travis likes to eat vegan with the kiddies.

“Just ate at the Vegan Factory wit my kids, soooooo good. Now gettin’ ready for practice tonight.”

Vegan Factory is a family owned Thai-vegan establishment in Tarzana, California that offers soups, salads, wraps, noodles, and veggie burgers, plus traditional Thai foods like vegan versions of orange chicken and shrimp and other fish entrees.

Keep teaching the children well, Travis.

Travis Barker took a moment to put down his drumsticks and Tweet about delicious food he had at Spiral Diner in Dallas, TX.

“Just ate great vegan food @SpiralDallas …soooooo good.”

Travis isn’t the only celebrity that knows Spiral’s got the good stuff.

Erykah Badu, a native Texan, likes to catch herself a good meal when she’s in town.

And Silverstein’s Shane Told got a sweet tooth for the Diner’s brownies in the past.

Travis Barker was a longtime vegan who temporarily started eating meat after a plane crash that resulted him needing several skin grafts for burns.

Sadly, the Blink 182 recently loss his friend DJ AM (Adam Goldstein) who was the only other survivor of the plane crash.

He did this on the advice on doctors and took some flak from the veg community.

However, it appears that Travis still loves his vegan grub.

From a recent Tweet:

“Eating the best vegan food for lunch:)”

We’re happy Travis is back to eating the good stuff!

Just wish he’d given us more details on the meal. We like salivating over our computers.

Shanna Moakler, ex-wife of Travis Barker and a longtime vegetarian, recently took her family to a Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus show.

However, she now regrets that decision after watching video footage on how animals are treated by handlers.

“My family and I attended the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus a couple weeks ago, and I believed—as I know many do—that the circus would treat its animals humanely. I was so deeply saddened when I saw PETA’s video showing the horrific abuse the elephants suffered at the hands of Ringling trainers. I took for granted that people were doing the right thing. I hope everyone watches the video at PETA.org. With this new knowledge, we can draw attention to this issue, make changes, and ensure that animals big and small are properly cared for. No amount of entertainment is worth allowing the torture of other living beings. We will never attend another Ringling Bros. show.”
