Vegetarian Star

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.

In the midst of the press, Georges Laraque took off one of his shoes.

He didn’t throw it at George W. Bush, but instead took the time to educate a reporter about animal-free shoes.

“Even my shoes. I got this pair I’m wearing from Payless, paid $40 for them. I don’t wear leather now,” Laraque said.

The Montreal Canadienes player went vegan in June, but that doesn’t mean he’s a tofu fanatic.

“I never really liked tofu but when you decide to make that switch, it’s not that hard,” he said.

“When you see what an animal goes through, it would have been way tougher for me to contribute to the meat industry. I mean, I never really liked tofu but if this was a diet, it might have been harder because maybe you’d miss the meat. But I am doing it because of the animals, so it’s totally different.”

And despite the fact he might be buying more shoes this season, he’s really gung ho about synthetics.

“Payless Shoes,” Laraque emphasized. “They won’t last as long, but I’m not mistreating any animals, so it’s perfect.”

Not to mention, Payless has some eco friendly Zoe and Zac footwear for the ladies now.

A recent episode of Project Runway with anti-fur fashion guru Tim Gunn highlighted a newly singled woman’s mission to make a fresh start in the most kindest of ways.

Divorcee Dress Challenge “Stephanie” asked Nicolas to take her wedding dress and turn it into something she could wear for everyday use.

But Stephanie wasn’t just looking to turn a train into a tube top. She wanted her outfit to be free from wool, leather, silk and fur.

The New York Post joked about Stephanie’s “cruelty-free” request.

“Tim sends in their divorcees. I think Tim just likes to Frenchify words whenever c’est possible. Gordana’s divorcee wants to attract a young ruffian of the street, Shirin’s divorcee wants to be a “Cher half-breed,” and Nicolas’ divorcee wants her new look to be cruelty free and preferably made out of organic granola. Nicolas can’t guarantee it will be cruelty-free, because having to deal with Nicolas is the cruelest joke of all.”

Yay for Stephanie!

With a heart like hers, she’s sure to make a great new start for herself.

In another attempt to redeem his image, Michael Vick will be in a reality TV show on BET, tentatively called The Michael Vick Project.

“I just want people to really get to know me as an individual,” Vick said. “What I want to do is change the perception of me. I am a human being. I’ve made some mistakes in the past, and I wish it had never happened. But it’s not about how you fall, but about how you pick yourself up.”

A great way for Vick to show he’s changed is to continually feature animal issues on the show.

Maybe give a different animal charity a shout out weekly, letting viewers know how they can support it?

Or an adopt an animal clip, with a different four legged “star” each episode.

How do you think Vick can use his reality TV show prove he’s worthy of the public’s praise?

Exciting news in the world of celebrity chefs!

Today, Rachael Ray is featuring a treat containing vegan marshmallows, specifically, the goodies created and distributed by Sweet & Sara.

Sweet & Sara Peanut Butter smores are getting some deliciously sweet press on the Rachael Ray Show website.

Nice Karma balance, after Rachael hosted the Burger Bash with bacon lusting Guy Fieri.

The Peanut Butter Smore is the Sweet and Sara original Smore made with gelatin free marshmallow with a layer of smooth peanut butter on top a graham cracker.

These guys have worked the vegan marshmallow in ways you couldn’t imagine.

They also feature strawberry marshmallows, toasted coconut, and even cinnamon pecan in their product line, all handmade in a dedicated vegan facility.

Sounds like a factory where Willie Wonka gave up the egg and dairy.

The company is headquartered in Long Island City, New York.

We imagine their phones should be ringing off the hook for orders any minute now.

Kosher Vegetarian, starring Natalie Portman and Irrfan Khan, is set for release this Friday, October 16 2009.

In the film, Irrfan plays a strict vegetarian Gujarati man who falls in love with a Jewish girl, played by Natalie Portman.

Portman is a also a vegetarian in real life.

The film is part of a larger anthology, New York, I Love You.

“My character’s dilemma is that the woman who was once my wife, has now become a sanyasin, and he has to worship her,” said Irrfan.

“Actors all over the world are linked by a common craving for excellence. We’re all looking for challenges and glory. But with Natalie, it was very different. We constantly chatted, discussed one another’s culture and shared very warm vibes.”

Alicia Silverstone had a launch party for her vegan diet and lifestyle book, The Kind Diet, which will be released tomorrow from Rodale Publishing.

During the celebration at New York City’s Candle 79, Alicia took the time to explain why cow’s milk wasn’t made from humans.

“Remember, dairy was designed to make little baby calves turn into 400-pound cows, so that’s what it does to you,” Silverstone said. “It makes you fat.”

Well…guess sometimes you have to be blunt.

A study discussed in the Washington Post agrees.

Researchers found that children who drank 3 servings of milk a day were prone to becoming overweight.

Let’s ease up on that mother cow and chug some almond milk instead.

Nicole Lapin

Journalist Nicole Lapin, anchor for CNN.com Live, has been a proud vegan for six years and a vegetarian for 13 years.

When asked by green gossip site ecorazzi.com what the most rewarding part of going VEG was, Nicole answered, “vegan cookies.”

Oh, yeah.

There’s no sweeter product on the market than one that spares the lives of dairy cows that will eventually be sent to slaughter or that “gets rid of” baby male chicks that will never lay eggs.

A few favorite vegan cookies on our rewards list including Uncle Eddies, Nana’s (which serves up sweetness for the gluten-free folks), and Alternative Baking Company.

Check them out and request them at your local natural foods store.
