Comments Off on “Wife Swap” Casting Vegetarians And Cattle Ranchers Again (Video)
ABC’s Wife Swap is holding auditions for another season where the women of the house trade places to entertain millions of viewers and give headaches to members of the opposite family.
Vegetarians and vegans, this is your time to spread the word on national television, as this is one reality TV show that’s actually welcoming of you.
“We’re searching for traditional and non-traditional families; parents and kids who love sports; households with strict rules and no rules; vegetarian families and families who eat anything; moms and dads who love the arts and families who just want to have fun…along with every one in between.”
Vegetarians have “swapped” before and made it out okay, like the Brazenwood/Taylor swap of 2009, featuring the matriarchs from a Texas cattle ranch and a new age vegan family seeing what it’s like on the other side.
As expected, the families’ reunion featured a discussion on food, the cattle rancher mom claiming she walked into a home with “no food at all,” and vegan mom giving a lecture on junk food.
Watch the clip below.

Comments Off on Meatless Mouthful–Dennis Kucinich The Perpetual Hungry Vegan
“I’m a vegan. I kind of am hungry all the time.”
–Vegan congressman Dennis Kucinich, jokingly while discussing the subject of a hunger strike by U.S. postal workers who oppose proposed cuts in service.
Several parts of legislation have been counter-proposed in order to save the service, including changes to the way retirement services are funded and efforts to prevent closings in the next decade. Although he supports the workers who have pledged to go on strike for the next several days in D.C., Kucinich says he can’t give up his spaghetti and “wheat” balls and vegan muffins for it himself.

Anthony Bourdain has teamed up with novelist Joel Rose and illustrator Langdon Foss to create a graphic comic that tells the story of sushi chefs gone bad.
If the idea of those who chop seaweed and tofu being violent crime lords makes you laugh, you will roll on the floor after reading this line from the publisher’s description.
“In a not-too-distant future L.A. where master chefs rule the town like crime lords and people literally kill for a seat at the best restaurants, a bloody culinary war is raging.”
Get Jiro pits two teams, The Internationalists–known for preparing foods from all over the world, against Vertical Farm–a team of chefs who only prepare vegetarian, macrobiotic dishes.
Since Bourdain is known for his animosity towards vegetarians, Get Jiro is sure to piss them off, especially given the fact that Jiro is a “ruthless sushi chef” known to “decapitate patrons who dare request a California Roll, or who stir wasabi into their soy sauce.”

Comments Off on “Real Housewives” Vicki Gunvalson Tosses Out Real Fur
Vicki Gunvalson may have a lot of issues to bicker about with her friends on the Real Housewives of Orange County, but which fur to wear to the party later in the evening isn’t one of them.
Gunvalson has sworn off fur after being contacted by animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and learning what goes on in the fur industry.
Anyone who watches reality TV knows the roles of women have changed significantly, and ladies do more than prepare dinner for the husbands in between make-up and hair touches. And actresses today don’t look glamorous at all wearing something from a dead animal.
“Growing up in the sixties and seventies, women I looked up to were stars of television and films, they were beautiful, glamorous and successful,” writes Gunvalson in statement. “Successful women role models were really just emerging for young women of my generation; it was a simpler time but full of exciting change. There were dreams every girl aspired to.”
