“Convicted Vegetarian” Web Cooking Show By Yves Veggie Cuisine (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, November 25th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Videos.

Convicted Vegetarian is a new web-based cooking show on YouTube which features chef Vic, a biker and rock musician, demonstrating vegetarian recipes using Yves Veggie Cuisine products, which is sponsoring the shows. Chef Vic made the decision to give up meat after his children were born, but make no mistake about it, animal flesh is one of the few things Vic gave up for fatherhood.

Still retaining what we hope is a pleather jacket, long hair and earrings, Vic hosts a show that symbolized by a chef’s hat sitting on a skull and crossbone, breaking the stereotype of vegetarian men being docile, passive or wimpy.

Chef Vic has made corndogs with slaw, veggie burger dishes and the clip here is for vegetarian Thanksgiving stuffing using Yves Veggie Brats.

More episodes are available at youtube.com/convictedvegetarian.
