Travis Barker was a longtime vegan who temporarily started eating meat after a plane crash that resulted him needing several skin grafts for burns.

Sadly, the Blink 182 recently loss his friend DJ AM (Adam Goldstein) who was the only other survivor of the plane crash.

He did this on the advice on doctors and took some flak from the veg community.

However, it appears that Travis still loves his vegan grub.

From a recent Tweet:

“Eating the best vegan food for lunch:)”

We’re happy Travis is back to eating the good stuff!

Just wish he’d given us more details on the meal. We like salivating over our computers.

Ben Harper makes us wanna steal some kisses from him.

Harper was in New York for Fashion Week recently showing his new clothing line with actor David Arquette, Propr.

Harper and Arquette were discussing the logo for Propr’s clothing line-three owls-over food and Harper decided to pass on the beer and burgers and opt for vegetarian chili instead.

Rumors have circulated that Ben is a vegetarian, but not much in confirmation.

As for why Arquette and Harper chose three owls?

“Owls have a great mythology, they’re mystical, they’re mysterious — and no one had claimed the owl,” Arquette said. “Except for Hooters.”

“We’re taking the owl back,” Harper said.

Eating lean veggie chili will help anyone look better in owls-even a Hooters girl.

In Defense of Food author Michael Pollan is outspoken improving health through better food.

He believes in less fast food, cooking at home more often, and everything in moderation.

He does not, however, believe in a vegan diet.

From isthmus.com:

That’s a very similar argument to what Karen Dawn makes, that if you’re too hardcore about a vegan diet you lose people.
“That’s right. I don’t want people to lose track of the fact that pleasure is a very important part of this, and being neurotic about eating is not good for your health. You know, there’s a great M.F.K. Fisher quote: “All things in moderation, including moderation.” I think she’s got the right idea.”

Granted, not everyone is gung ho about cutting all animal products from their lives.

But eating vegan isn’t pleasurable? Vegans are neurotic?

Pft!

Pollan’s starting to sound like Giles Coren.

There’s a new HBO comedy starring Jason Schwartzman that’s sure to keep you laughing so hard on Sunday night, you’ll forget tomorrow’s a work day.

Bored To Death features Schwartzman playing a character named Jonathan who’s girlfriend has just moved out because Jason was less than the ideal man.

“My girlfriend broke up with me because she says I smoke too much pot and drink too much white wine. But she’s right! How can you love someone if you’re in a fog all the time?”

Jonathan is also vegan-but is currently not attending services regularly.

“You know, we really should all be vegans,” Schwartman says in one episode. “I’m kind of a nonpracticing vegan.”

In real life Schwartzman loves to devour vegan cupcakes from BabyCakes bakery in NYC.

As owner Erin McKenna told us, “The first time a celebrity made it known how fond he was of BabyCakes was Jason Schwartzman. He came in once by himself the first time and then brought a whole gang of friends with him and had an eating contest in here. He was going crazy over everything–it was really fun!”

Catch the Bored to Death premiere this Sunday, September 20 at 9PM on HBO.

Legally Blonde

Legally Blonde fans put your Broadway shoes on.

Legally Blonde is currently touring the country with performance dates going through Spring of 2010.

If you remember the Reese Witherspoon goes to law school comedy, you remember her Paris Hilton-like handbag dog sidekick, Bruiser.

And the fact that Elle and Bruiser are both “Gemini Vegetarians.”

You don’t have to make a perfect score on the LSAT to know vegetarian dog food is available for your little Bruiser, Tito, or Max.

Vegan dog foods like V-Dog are available to pet owners interested in filling their pup with high protein plant based alternatives.

Because for some of man’s best friends, meat is totally optional.

Bet Bruiser wished those pink outfits were optional too.

Jeremy Piven received a sugar free, gluten free and dairy free birthday cake while on the set of Entourage from chef Kelly Keough.

But the event led to an increase in Keough’s sales and she has her own cooking show on the Veria channel called The Sweet Truth.

Kelly is also the author of Sugar-Free Gluten-Free Baking and Desserts.
