Alec Baldwin

Alec Baldwin is the host of a podcast series from WNYC called Here’s the Thing.

He regularly interviews entertainers, artists, policy makers and other movers and shakers in the industry, so an chat with Dan Mathews, vice-president for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, seems perfect for the station’s format.

The two discuss all of the standard issues PETA aims to cover, such as fur and animal testing, but when it comes down to getting the audience really interested, let’s face it–you have to talk about vegan desserts.

Mathews does get an occasional sweet tooth and can tell you exactly where to satisfy it.

Billy Corgan ZuZu’s Delivers Fantastic Vegan Chocolate Cake

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, September 24th, 2012 in Business, Food & Drink, Restaurants.

Billy Corgan

Billy Corgan opened his long-awaited tea cafe in Highland Park, a suburb of Chicago, IL, a little over a week ago.

Opening day featured free tea and performances from the Smashing Pumpkins band member. But Corgan warned that, “If people come in to stalk me I won’t hang out because I don’t want to disrupt the customers.”

So Vegetarian Star stopped by a few days later to avoid such a disruption and instead stalk the vegan desserts.

There were a total of about six on the menu and the big slice of vegan chocolate cake with an equally vegan vanilla frosting had the biggest celebrity factor. The texture of the cake itself was extremely light and airy and the portion was well worth the $5 for the slice.
