Mayim Bialik has traded her lab coat as Dr. Amy Farrah Fowler in The Big Bang Theory for an apron and other 50s housewife attire in a role just as important as explaining quantum mechanics and astrophysics.

Carrie Underwood‘s VH1 Behind the Music bonus clip has the country music superstar explaining how her life growing up on her parents’ cattle farm prompted her to go vegetarian.
“My whole life we always had cows,” Underwood said. “Everybody had cows. People had sheep, people had everything,” she continued, referring to the farming community she lived in.

Comments Off on Kathy Freston Gives Pet Lovers Vegan Advice In “Tails Inc.”
Kathy Freston is featured in the October issue of Tails Inc., a magazine devoted to all things pet-friendly for pet owners.
All pet owners and anyone who loves animals should be attempting to go vegetarian or vegan, or at least reduce their intake of animal products.
Farmed animals like pigs, chickens and cows are just as smart, loving and compassionate as your own pet. And unhealthy byproducts of the meat industry often end up as pet food, a practice potentially both dangerous and unhealthy.
“I had a little Chihuahua who I was in love with,” Freston explained about one of her motivating factors to go vegan. “She was lying on her back, and I was rubbing her belly. She had a smile on her face, and I could tell how happy she was. I was thinking to myself how much I loved animals. Then a little voice inside my head said, “If you love animals so much, why are you eating them?”

Shark Tank, the ABC series that has entrepreneurs pitching their product for chance for some investment money from several well-known millionaires, recently featured a vegan-friendly company looking to expand with the sharks’ help.
Liz Lovely cookies are vegan and gluten-free, which leaves investor Kevin O’Leary wondering what can actually go in them.
