Chelsea Clinton

We already know the kinds of stuff going into Chelsea Clinton‘s wedding guests (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free) give her points for a green ceremony foodwise. But what about the facilities taking care of things going out?

True, it’s not the most pleasant thought to have, but UK Express is reporting the couple and family has rented several portable “loos” complete with hot water and stereo music. Hopefully, no one will be on the loo so long they can listen to one of those really long songs like American Pie or Purple Rain in its entirety.

Like many other aspects of home living, portable potties can be made green with a variety of options.

Mark Bittman

From July 25th-July 31st, you’re invited to celebrate National Salad Week. According to a press release from the Association for Dressings and Sauces (yes, it actually exist), 95% of Americans eat salad at least three times a week and people who eat salads regularly are perceived as “healthier, happier and sexier” (must be the phallic shaped asparagus or libido enhancing celery ).

To help kick off the celebration, we bring you Mark Bittman‘s collection of 101 Simple Salads for the Season. The flexitarian food writer who coined the phrase “vegan until 6,” has devoted an entire section to vegetarian and mostly vegan, although many salads not included in the category do not contain meat or cheese. The noodle category also contains many vegetarian options.

"The Dorm Room Diet" Daphne Oz

Daphne Oz had her famous cardio surgeon/TV host father, Dr. Oz, write a forward to her book, The Dorm Room Diet, which contains real advice for curbing the freshman 15 from a gal who experienced it herself.

However, daughter Oz has no problem holding down the fort when it comes to dishing dirt on getting healthy, as the 240 page book contains her eight steps aimed at teaching college students nutrition and fitness.

The 2010 edition is a revision to the original book written in 2006 by the vegetarian who also follows a gluten-free diet.

Before Princeton University, Daphne worked with her high school to introduce the Healthy Eating Initiative, a program that replaced many processed meats in the cafeteria menu with whole grains and raw foods.

Pamela Anderson

Pamela Anderson never shies away from irony.

If it’s not being the vegetarian who opens a strip club that serves steaks, it’s promoting vegetarianism in a restaurant that serves foie gras.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Anderson wrote to Montreal’s Restaurant Globe, the venue where she debuted the pro-vegetarian ad banned by city officials because it was deemed sexist, asking it to remove the delicacy created by forcing ducks to eat so much food their livers swell several times the normal size, causing pain and death.

“Surely the irony was not lost on you that I was unveiling a pro-vegetarian ad at your restaurant,” Anderson wrote.
