"The Tofu Tollbooth"

Dar Williams is a singer-songwriter who collaborated with Elizabeth Zipern to create a one stop book filled with dining suggestions for the vegetarian traveler, The Tofu Tollbooth. The concept is great, plus the book stays true to being environmentally friendly as it’s printed with soy ink on recyclable paper.

“It’s a directory of natural food stores,” Williams told Windy City Times. “So, that’s the link; because I’m a traveler. And, actually, I’m a terrible cook. I mean, a really bad cook. So, it would be kind of funny if people ( laughs ) thought it was a cookbook. They probably imagine me in an Indian print skirt over a pot of lentils. I am so the grab-and-go kind of bad eater.”

Daryl Hannah has been to a lot of places since she left her hometown of Chicago, Illinois in the United States to pursue an acting career.

Most recently her adventures took her to England to raise awareness for biodiversity, but she says the best meals she eats overseas are in Italy.

When not in Italy, she’s probably brown bagging it.

“I usually bring my own food because I’m a vegetarian and you can’t always count on finding good vegetarian food abroad,” the actress told The Independent, which profiles some of her travel experiences.

Organic Travel is a great place to start for veggie friendly adventure seekers looking to maintain their quality of life on the road by serving as directory for organic stores and restaurants, farmer’s markets, smoke-free and environmentally friendly hotels and more.

Thumbing through the restaurant listings in East Sussex, for example, leads you to Terre a Terre Vegetarian Restaurant which serves items like Hoisin Tofu with pickled ginger and Smoked Sakuri Soba. Vegan and gluten-free items are also designated on the menu.

Organic Travel allows you to search by United States listings or Worldwide, and by categories such as sustainable events, natural parks, and green lodging.

Joss Stone Travel Adventures Make Consuming Fresh Veggies Hard

Joss Stone Switches On The Hard Rock Cafe Christmas Tree Lights

Joss Stone‘s traveled to some beautiful places in her lifetime, including Greece, Costa Rica and Turkey.

She likes to bring along her dogs, and although she usually has breathtaking experiences, not all of her travel adventures have been positive.

Joss says a reservation error landed her in a hotel with ants and an unpleasant smell.

Then there’s always the food and drink dilemma, which Joss says go hand in hand since so much of her food requires rinsing with fresh water.

“I avoid drinking the water until I know whether it is clean or not. I’ve heard loads of horror stories of people being ill and coming down with diarrhea just from drinking the water in other countries. It makes it extra difficult for me because I’m a vegetarian, and most of the salads and vegetables are washed using tap water.”

Joss’s is currently performing to promote her lastest album, Colour Me Free.
