“This movement away from eating animals and toward plant-based foods is on fire. It’s building momentum by the day. This is a profound shift, and I believe that the culture is embracing the ‘V’ word. Whereas before, it used to refer to hippies and a radical grass-roots movement. Now it’s hip.”

Comments Off on Natalie Portman Child Screams At Vegan Food Menu
Just because Natalie Portman is and has been a longtime vegetarian, doesn’t mean her child will automatically enjoy dining at a restaurant that serves such food.
The actress was spotted at Flore Vegan in Silverlake, California with one-year old son Aleph, who was not happy with mom’s choice and would not stop crying.
That’s too bad, considering Flore Vegan even has a complete child’s menu, featuring a burrito with black beans, cashew cheese and avocado; Tofu Egg Salad Sandwich; Cashew Cheese Quesadilla; and variety of veggie burgers including Portobello Seitan.
Any of these dishes wash down well with “Babycino,” a steamed soy milk beverage.
