Vegetarian Star

The Vegiterranean, a vegan restaurant created and owned by The Pretenders’ Chrissie Hynde, isn’t exactly located in the hub of vegetarianism.

But that doesn’t stop her from bringing business to her hometown of Akron, Ohio, as she says mostly meat eaters dine there.

“Ninety per cent of the people who go there are meat eaters,” Hynde said. “They just think the food’s great and there’s not a bean sprout in sight.”

Not that Chrissie isn’t into anything with the word “bean” attached to it.

“I could eat beans on toast every day for the rest of my life, no complaints at all. I’m a buffet kind of person. I’d much rather go in for a buffet, load up my plate, sit down, eat and split, or have a piece of pizza on a doorstep or something. I can’t stand fuss.”

She’s not a party person either, stating she never gets invited because “they don’t invite vegetarians.”

But that may be for the best, as she gets to dart silly questions like, “Do you eat fish?”

“I’ve been having that same conversation for 40 years!” she said.

No, it’s not April Fool’s Day and unlike other posts which joked about fake celebrity products, this is the real deal.

NBA legend John Salley has his own organic, vegan, natural food line, John Salley Foods, that he’s promoting.

“Primo Olive Oil” and “Habanero Pepper Sauce” are just two of the products with John’s handsome face on them, along with “Double Baked Herbed Crisps” and “Peach Chitpotle Sauce.”

Speaking of faces, doesn’t John putting his mug on these remind you of all those Paul Newman products that dominate the shelves? Sure would be nice if John set up foundations and charities to help the world like Newman did.

From John Salley Foods website:

“We are a gourmet snack food company on a mission to create products and recipes on a level you can’t ordinarily find at your grocery store. All of our foods are 100% organic, vegan and kosher. No animals were used or harmed in any way in the production of our foods.”

Notably missing are the ants, cow tongue and worms some of his competitors on I’m a Celebrity, get me out of here ate.

“4-time NBA champion and renowned television and film personality John Salley has been a vegan and aspiring chef for many years and has finally decided to bring his own unique take on organic cuisine to the public. John’s flavorful sauces and incredible snack foods prove that delicious treats can be vegan, organic and healthy, surpassing what you’ve known until now.”

Salley’s products aren’t available to order yet, but the site encourages those interested to check back or you can email them for more info on when they’ll be available.

“I just don’t understand those meat eaters. How can they justify eating those beautiful animals? And how can they justify the fact that half the world is starving when there is enough food for everybody? We’re feeding grain to cows while people die of hunger. How can people not see that is wrong?”

Hot, hot, hot!

She’ll never have to call Tyrone for anything because The Vegan Scoop is all she’ll ever need.

Earlier this year, Erykah Badu got some samples of Wheeler’s Frozen Desserts.

She thoroughly enjoyed them and recently had the pleasure of receiving a copy of The Vegan Scoop, a recipe book filled with tricks and trades to make your own vegan ice cream at home.

“I can’t wait to make it at home,” she said, according to a recent post on Wheeler’s blog, titled, “Erykah Badu plans to “do it” at home with The Vegan Scoop.”

“I heard she was looking for a great vegan ice cream so I shipped her over 15 samples earlier this year,” said chef Wheeler del Torro, author of The Vegan Scoop.

Wheeler’s vegan Frozen desserts are crafted from soy and nut milk blends and certified organic ingredients.

“Go vegan! Or at least eat less meat and dairy. For some reason, the eco movement has been slow and a bit wary to talk about this. But it is pretty much the best thing you could do for the environment.”

—-Bones’ actress Emily Deschanel to ecostiletto.com, when asked what her favorite eco friendly tip was that readers should know about.

According to the creators of Meat the Truth, livestock greenhouse gases account for more emissions than those made by every car, train, boat, and plane we get around in.

Ah, yes. Al Gore it’s time to do your thing. Let’s not let the most inconvenient truth of all get in the way of going totally green.

Jorja Fox has a purse named after her.

Yeah, you know what we’re talking about. The vegan Matt & Nat handbag collection!

VegNews magazine caught up with Inder Bedi, founder of Matt & Nat, to talk about the cool perks of owning and running a vegan business.

Not only is this guy successful financially, he gives back, including feeding indigent people vegetarian meals.

“We give back to many different types of charities all over North America and Europe, from animal-rights to battered women’s shelters to feeding 400 homeless people a vegetarian meal twice a year in Montreal. An example of all this is a new brand we just launched, Samsara. One dollar for every bag sold goes to the charity of your choice. In three months since the launch, we’ve already committed more than $16,000!”

Dennis Kucinich delivered a televised message to attendees at Vegan Earth Day on June 21st at Pierce College in Woodland Hills, California.

Kucinich used to suffer from Crohn’s disease, which he says, along with Chinese medicine, a vegan diet has cure him of.

Heck, if you think a vegan diet nixes that inflammatory disease of the intestines, a Japanese study suggested even a semi-vegetarian dieter can reap the benefits.

“I just want to tell you that for health reasons, for compassion for animals, there are many reasons that people can make that change. And also for helping to save the planet. There are as many reasons why a person may be a vegan as there are vegans, I suppose. But for me it’s been one of the most important decisions in my life. It’s enabled me to have increased clarity and vitality, and its given me a joy of life that I can’t say that I really had when I had another diet that was weighing me down physically and spiritually.”
