Vegetarian Star

The only animal Tony Denison from TNT‘s The Closer eats is fish, but he used to be a vegan before succumbing to cheese.

“I like Parmesan cheese too much,” Denison told Mother Nature Network.

Of all the cheeses to have a culinary affection for, Parmesan may be one of the worst.

As a hard cheese, manufacturers often use an animal based enzyme obtained from a calf’s stomach called rennet, while some soft cheeses may be used with a vegetable based one.

But if Parmesan is your thing, you’re not out of luck.

Several vegan recipes exists, most of which use either 1/2 cup of almonds or walnuts, 1 cup of nutritional yeast and a pinch of optional salt, blended in a food processor or blender.

Try it out on pasta, popcorn or bread and you’ll be one less excuse away from keeping your vegan vow.

Half of the pop duo The Veronicas really likes to get her vegan nacho fix on at Real Food Daily.

Last month, Lisa Origliasso Tweeted:

Is in LOVE with the vegan nachos at @realfooddaily everyone needs to go try them <3

And more recently, she Tweeted about RFD nachos again, in case the fans forgot:

Had the best vegan nachos at @realfooddaily…

Obviously, Real Food Daily’s got some great dairy-free grub, but if you can’t make it there, head to your closest natural foods store or go online and order Teese Vegan Nacho Cheese from Chicago Soy Dairy (and pick up some of their vegan ice cream or marshmallows while you’re at it).

You’ll get the best damn at home nacho cheese experience.

Period.

Emily Deschanel, star of the crime solving TV series, Bones, was on Craig Ferguson discussing her vegan diet, including her love for vegan cheese. Craig mentions that he doesn’t want to drink soy milk because he’s afraid of “growing boobs.” Deschanel explains there are lots of other non-dairy options, such as rice and cashew milk. To which Craig responds, “How do you milk a cashew?”

Some of her favorite “junk” vegan food on the show include french fries and vegan milkshakes.

The interview is spread over 2 videos. The vegan talk starts later in the first one, about minute 7 or so and continues immediately on video 2.
