3rd Annual Art Of Elysium Heaven Gala Event - Arrivals

Moby has been a vegan for 20 years, but is bashful about proclaiming himself as a great vegan chef.

He told the Milwaukee Wisconsin Sentinel Journal, “I’m a terrible cook, so I usually eat out with friends.”

Sounds like vegan men aren’t any different from meat eaters after all when it comes to the kitchen.

Could it be the only decent meal Moby can make is his vegan blueberry pancakes?

Thankfully, if you’re not a great cook either, there are dozens of ready made vegetarian and vegan meals that require the simple skill of manipulating the microwave buttons.

A visit to the frozen aisle of the grocery store can stock your freezer with simple vegetarian meals like burritos or old fashioned macaroni and cheese to ethnic dishes containing samosas and dahl to fake meat and potatoes.

Those ramen noodles you used to make with chicken during the after school hours?

They now come flavored with miso.

Of course, when you’re ready to become Julia Child (who at one point couldn’t understand why anyone would want to be vegetarian) these lists for the top 10 vegetarian and top 10 vegan cookbooks will help get you started.

Sandra Gidley, Romsey MP, Declares Office Cruelty-Free

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010 in Environment-Eco-Green, Politicians.

Empty cubicles in office

In the UK, the MP for Romsey, Sandra Gidley, has declared her office to be cruelty-free, using only cleaning products approved under the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection (BUAV) standards.

In a press release, Gidley said,”Many people think about animal testing of cosmetics and medicines but testing of cleaning products is often ignored. I hope that others will now make an active decision to go cruelty free.”

The BUAV standards for humane cosmetics and household products is recognized by the Leaping Bunny logo.

Companies seeking approval must submit to strict audits and ensure that neither the finished product nor the ingredients in the formula have been tested on animals at any stage of manufacturing since a fixed cutoff date.

If you’re looking for a non-toxic and cruelty-free way to clean up your cubicle space or home, grab a bottle of vinegar, not for your lunch salad, but for disinfecting.

A microbiologist for Good Housekeeping performed tests to reveal that vinegar was 99.9% effective at reducing bacteria and was also very efficient at killing mold.

Special New York Screening of Tyler Perry's Why Did I get Married Too

Black Book Mag caught up with several celebrities at the Why Did I Get Married Too? premiere to find out where they enjoy getting good food in the feature, “Where Celebs Go Out.”

Janet Jackson and Cicely Tyson know where to combine delicious and healthy, as both ladies mentioned vegetarian and vegan restaurants as their favorites.

Janet likes Cafe Sunflower in Atlanta, Georgia as well as Veggieland.

Cicely recommends Pure Food and Wine in LA.

Cicely once said she treats her body like an expensive car, by putting only the best fuel in it.

“I mean, if you have a Rolls-Royce and you pull up to a gasoline station, you don’t put crud in it. You put the most expensive oil and gas in your car. You want it to be treated well in order for it to serve you well. We should start thinking that about this body of ours.”
