Comments Off on Alicia Silverstone Detroit Vegetarian Recommendations
Detroit.
Is it Motown? The Motor City? How about the veggie city!
Alicia Silverstone has shared some of her favorite veg spots she either visited or learned about while filming Vamps in the Detroit, Michigan area.
The vegan foodies on the West Coast may get jealous, because this midwestern town is home to so many veg-friendly establishments, they’ll no longer be able to claim California as the mecca for eating meatless.

“I am not a vegetarian, but I don’t eat meat very often. First of all, I don’t want to make any declarations like that. Look, If I’m in Cleveland at 3 in the morning and I’m hungry and the only thing I can get is a room service turkey burger, I’m going to get it. But for my own health, meat is probably not the best thing for me. I eat meat like people in the Middle Ages, only on feast days. I probably eat it maybe a dozen times a year or probably eat it maybe a dozen times a year or something. If that’s not good enough for the vegetarians, sorry.”

Magazine creator Bernie Goldhirsh that promotes individuals, businesses, non-profits and other people making a change for the better in areas like health, environment, food and politics, have pledged to go some form of vegetarian for the month of June.
There are weekday vegetarian aspirations, lunchtime only vegetarians, vegetarians looking to give up fish and a vegetarian who admits he can only begin the pledge after he returns from vacation in Hawaii.

Never mind the published data showing vegetarians are less likely to have diabetes as the cause of death than meat eaters.
The American Diabetes Association has responded to Steve-O boycotting its fundraiser event because meat was on the menu, basically saying, “It’s cool. Meat’s not bad at all.”
