Dita Von Teese has always maintained she’s not going all out veggie.

And on an even more sour note, she told PETA she wasn’t about to advocate giving up fur when she offered to star in a PSA about spaying and neutering pets.

And that may be good for chickens and the environment.

According to NFL Lockout, each NFL city could potentially lose $160 million dollars and 115 thousand jobs would be affected if football season is cancelled.

One of those businesses involves chicken wings.

“Relationships are complex things and to hinge them on just one aspect doesn’t make them any easier. In this world there are perfectly wonderful people who eat meat and then there are some unpleasant people who are vegan. What is most important if you’re a vegan dating an omnivore is that this person is respectful of your lifestyle choices. And if they’re millionaires and gorgeous, more power to you.”

Terry Hope Romero, vegan Latin food queen and author of several vegan cookbooks, including Viva Vegan!, Vegan Cupcakes Invade Your Cookie Jar and Veganomicon.

No, not not every vegan is opposed to loving a meat eater. Some even recommend it, as there’s opportunity to share the food in your world with someone who normally wouldn’t be exposed to it.

Still not comfortable making the pizza half veggie and half meat with your lover? There are numerous vegetarian and vegan dating sites online.

We don’t have any doubts why United and not Continental has the slogan “Fly The Friendly Skies.” There was nothing friendly about the event that took place on a Newark bound flight when a woman did not receive a vegetarian meal she found suitable.

Maybe Continental should make its slogan, “If it has a face, throw it in our face.”

Megyn Price Feeds Vegetarian Family Members With Backyard Garden

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, March 21st, 2011 in Actresses, Food & Drink, Gardening.

Rules of Engagement actress Megyn Price feeds her family of mixed eaters from the garden in her backyard.

Price told Celebrity Baby Scoop: “We grow whatever’s in season, and as much as our garden will hold! I love to preserve foods as well, so I never mind if we have a bumper crop of anything. I’ve gone so overboard with arugula, that we have a wild patch now, covering our hillside. We’ve got the happiest bunnies in Southern California!”

Price told CNN’s Eatocracy that her family is made of vegetarians and non-vegetarians, so she’s learned to cook accordingly, especially during the Holidays.

“In my house, we have half vegetarians and half meat eaters,” she said.

The last time we wrote about a singer crooning about veganism, it was Nora Jones who ultimately made the right decision because she chose an animal over some not so good man characters in her life–even if one was a vegan.

Poly Styrene, known for being the leader of the 1970s British punk rock group X-Ray Spex is back with a new album, Generation Indigo, and the vegetarian created a few friendly lyrics in ode to vegan shoes.

Listen for “I Luv Ur Sneakers” when the album hits the shelves in April.

Rachael Ray held her Feedback party at SXSW and according to Billboard, it took her forever to decide on what food to serve during the one night event. It’s an event so stressful, she can’t bring herself to decide what dishes will make the final cut.

“I can’t do the final round of eliminations,” Ray said. “It’s like ‘American Idol’ and I’m J. Lo, unable to make the unchosen food cry.”

In the end, a vegetarian chili with portabella mushrooms was voted safe for the evening and the Sanjaya dish that makes everyone hurl but somehow makes it back to the table went home.
