Miranda Kerr is known for being a green, eco-hero, but could it be her body type was born to make that easier?

The actress was quoted by Female First as saying she follows a diet that recommends eating according to one’s blood type. Since she’s a type A, it is supposedly better for her to eat fruits, vegetables and less meat.

“I am a blood type A and more often than not I eat specifically for my blood type. I also eat low GI, high alkaline foods, drink filtered water and eat mostly fresh produce and very little meat.”

“I believe it is important to supplement our food to ensure our bodies have the nutrition required to remain healthy. This is even more important if you do not eat certified organic foods and certified organic fresh produce.”

The diet, created by Dr. Peter D’Adamo, sounds great if you’re Kerr’s type, but does that mean the 56% and 69% of people in the United States who have type O or type B are doomed to beef and chicken?

If Steve-O wanted to start writing his own vegan cookbook, he’d already have two recipes that would knock his fans’ socks off.

His ideas for breakfast and lunch were shared with The Edmonton Journal, and they’re definitely suited for the simple cook in all of us.

“Generally in the morning I make a mixture of whole grain cereal with almond milk and a slice of banana on it. And about once a day I’ll eat a whole pack of Tofurky. I love that stuff, man. I’ll just eat it right out of the pack with mustard.”

Waka Flocka Flame plays nice and naughty activist in two different “Ink Not Mink” ads for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals aimed to discourage people from wearing real fur.

In both the G-rated and NSFW version (shown below), the ad reads, “Be comfortable in your own skin. Let animals wear theirs.”

As a child, Flocka grew up with a lot of animals–dogs, iguanas, lizzards.

Mark Bittman believes all soups fall into four categories: Creamy, Brothy, Earthy and Hearty.

All are vegetarian. Most are vegan. All look incredibly delicious from the photographs.

When Mayim Bialik takes her little one for a check-up, runny nose or prescription refill, she’ll never have to worry about doc giving her a lecture on proteins, soy products giving him male breasts, the kid’s growth being stunted or any of the other naysaying arguments those in the medical profession who are uneducated about veg diets and children give.

Mayim’s pediatrician for her children happens to be a vegan.

“Fortunately, our pediatrician is vegan, and that’s so incredibly important,” Bialik told VegNews in the April 2011 issue.

“Not only for my son to have a vegan diet reinforced at our check-ups but also to have a pediatrician who’s a nutritionist, whom we can actually go to with my mother-in-law’s questions.”

Cruelty to animals bites.

That’s why Vampire Diaries actor Ian Somerhalder is doing his best to put his teeth into those who abuse them through a new campaign at Change.org.

The campaign was created by Somerhalder’s foundation, the Ian Somerhalder Foundation, which the actor founded to draw awareness to environmental and animal issues. It seeks to reform The Prevention of Cruelty to Animal Act in British Columbia, some parts of which have not been revised in 100 years.

The ancient laws provide no regulation for businesses that work with animals. It was a recently infamous incident involving an employee that helped shoot and kill 100 sled dogs because tourism was slow that motivated Somerhalder.
