Poet Benjamin Zephaniah has become one of several celebrities to join the campaign to ask the Malvern Conservators to reconsider their plans to close the vegetarian St. Ann’s Well Cafe in Malvern Hills in West Worcestershire, England.

According to a press release from the Save St. Ann’s Well campaign, Zephaniah contacted supporters to offer his thoughts, saying he was sad to hear about the closing.

“In the book Icons of England I named the Malvern Hills as my favourite place in England. I could have also said that St Anns Well cafe is my favourite place on the hills. It is unique, it is a treasure, it is fully in keeping with the hills, and is a sustainable enterprise. This cafe is a great example of the kind of ethical business that can carry us forward in the 21st century. It must be protected, it must be saved, it must just be for all of us. PS I recommend the chocolate cake!’”

The owner of the cafe, John Redman, has occupied the site of St. Ann’s Well for both his business and his residency for the past 20 years.

He was informed late last year that the Conservators would not be renewing his lease.

An online petition has been started in an attempt to persuade them to reverse their decision.

Hope this won’t be the last year for the chocolate cake Zephaniah likes so much.

L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center's An Evening With Women - Arrivals

Sarah Silverman told Ok! magazine her last meal at a vegetarian restaurant was the “Big Macro” sandwich with a side of kale at M Cafe in Melrose, Los Angeles.

She called this indulgence “giving into LA.”

“Yes, I have given in to Los Angeles. You have a problem with that?”

The Big Macro, as expected, features the goodness of grains in the, “organic whole-grain brown rice & vegetable burger with lettuce, tomato, pickles, onion, sprouts, soy cheese, and special sauce on a fresh-baked whole wheat bun.”

If you bow down to King Kale, you can get the salad with spicy peanut dressing.

We’ve got no problem with that and would give in in a heartbeat!

Don’t forget to search online for a list of vegetarian restaurants where you can get the Big Macro instead of the Big Mac.

American Idol Gives Back

Carrie Underwood told US Magazine at the American Idol Gives Back show that she rarely eats out at restaurants.

“I think the hardest thing about what I do is eating [healthy] because we’re all over the place,” Underwood said.

“It’s fast food, there’s aftershow food, you get pizza, whatever,” she added. “I don’t do that. I don’t eat out ever.”

“Every once in a while I have a day off and I might go to a restaurant — but no aftershow food and I keep my fridge stocked.”

Carrie’s reluctance to go out may have a lot to do with her vegetarian diet.

Not every part of the country is as vegetarian friendly as others, especially the parts of the United States that boo her for announcing she’s veg on stage.

Still, this gal could use an iphone application like VegOut every once in awhile to navigate her way to the nearest veg friendly restaurant.
