Vegetarian Star

Jan Maxwell has seen success on the stage in productions like Follies and Lend Me A Tenor. Even though she’s following a mostly plant-based diet now, she would like to eat more award-winning vegan meals in the future.

“I’ve always been on some sort of diet,” Maxwell told Grubstreet. “The only thing that has really stuck for a couple of years now is that I’m gluten-free and a pescetarian with vegan aspirations. I’ve always wanted to be a vegetarian.”

The actress told the New York magazine what she eats in a typical week. There’s plenty of granola, Boca Burgers on gluten-free buns, vegetarian nachos and nuts on her menu.

“The fact is, most people in the U.S. eat way more meat than is good for them or the planet, but even knowing this, the chances are little that we are all going to become vegetarians, much less vegan. Asking everyone to go vegetarian or vegan is not a realistic or attainable goal, but we can focus on a more plant-based diet and support the farmers who raise their animals humanely and sustainably. This is why I am such a big believer in the Meatless Monday Movement and the Environmental Working Group’s Meat Eaters Guide to Climate Change and Health.”

—Mario Batali, on the Environmental Working Group’s site that helps potential part-time vegetarians learn how to reduce their footprint. The guide discusses both the environmental and health benefits that are gained from reducing one’s intake of animal products.

Women who rock=good. Women who rock without animal as food=even better.

Otep is a vegetarian and animal rights activist who has been featured as one of Revolver magazine’s “Hottest Chicks in Metal.”

“Making conscious sacrifices for the benefit of others, whether it’s animal rights or for people who are struggling–I think that is an act of courage,” Otep told PETA2 in an interview. “Taking a stand, caring about something seems to be much more rebellious in a country, society or culture where conformity matter.”
