In a hilarious video we can’t watch enough times, Santa Claus is seen making changes to his naughty and nice list after seeing so many anti-veg artifacts in one little girl’s home.

Leather, fur, dairy milk, McDonald’s and KFC are enough to make him revolt Public Enemy style.

Chuck D, who’s participated in some animal activism himself, would be proud.

Jamie Oliver Is A Biweekly Vegetarian. Advice For Aspiring Flexitarians.

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, December 17th, 2010 in Chefs, Flexitarian, Food & Drink.

Jamie Oliver

Jamie Oliver has made himself an accidental vegetarian a few days a week because he can’t pry himself away from the salad bar.

“I’m probably vegetarian a couple of days a week, not on purpose but really just because I love eating vegetables and salad. I admire vegetarians, but I’m too much of a meat lover to ever become full-time vegetarian.”

Staunch vegans sometimes get upset by those who are willing to only give up meat part-time, but numbers do not lie. Two part time vegetarians in one household equals one full time one. And if 3-4 people ate veg twice a week like Jamie, that’s the equivalent of one person eating vegetarian every day of the week! Jamie’s love of salads works for him, but there are numerous ways to contribute to part-time vegetarianism or encourage your meat eating friends and relatives to do so. Here are a few ways you may not have considered to reduce your meat intake, improve your health, lighten your environmental footprint and reduce animal suffering.

Olivia Wilde "Women'sHealth Magazine"

Veg actress Olivia Wilde is on the latest cover of Women’s Health Magazine.

You’ll want to pick this up next week on December 21st when it’s available on the stands because inside, there’s a recipe for one of Olivia’s favorite vegan pasta recipes featuring tempeh.

Yum!

She also shares with the mag that she enjoys picking  up “leafy things” from either the farmers’ market or her personal garden.

Now’s a good time to locate your nearest market through the Local Harvest Directory, which also makes finding natural foods stores, local farms and other sustainable producers as easy as a click of the mouse.

Carla Hall

The Tom’s of Maine Wicked Fresh! Live Chat series went a little different than expected. While we were hoping “Top Chef All Stars” Carla Hall would do some cooking, she actually spent the hour answering questions from Facebook on food.

Which is still great, because Carla answered a question from Vegetarian Star about her favorite vegetarian or vegan dish and gave our site some love in the process!

Carla said right now she is really into root vegetables, so she loves to take rutabagas, turnips, carrots and parsnips and roast them in garlic and olive oil, throwing in some onions and simmering it all in vegetable broth. Then, toss in some tofu cubes. She also loves butternut squash soup and gave some great advice for a non-dairy substitute for cream.

Heather Mills Christmas Dinner Tips And Ideas For Every Holiday

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, December 16th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Recipes.

Heather Mills

Heather Mills has already shared some tips for enjoying the holiday season without meat and dairy in Veggie Vision’s Guide for enjoying a vegetarian Christmas. Now, she’s advising any vegetarian or vegan to take matters into their own hands when visiting relatives who eat meat. Bring your own and don’t bother arguing about values this time. Stuff your face with good food instead!

“The best thing you can do is bring an amazing dish to the party – such as a vegan dessert or yummy things that people will try,” Mills said. “It’s best not to get into a heavy conversation around the dinner table about your choice. Just say “you live your life, and I live mine, but if you want to have a serious discussion about it, let’s have it another day”. The best way to convert people is by bringing great-tasting food and by looking fit and healthy.”

When a site like Vegetarians In Paradise has recommendations for every major holiday of the year, you don’t even have to bother searching for recipes.
