Taking a risk with a vegetarian or vegan dish on a mainstream reality TV cooking competition isn’t as frightful as it used to be. Chefs are smarter, judges are open and almost no one faints to hear there’s no four or two legged flesh as the main centerpiece.
On a recent The Next Iron Chef, the competitors were given the task of turning classic diner food into something head turning (but not stomach turning). Chef Maneet Chauhan didn’t just give burgers a twist, she made the veggie burger a classic! Although the judges weren’t thrilled with the patty, Chauhan’s okra and squash blossom french fries were a hit.

Justin Bieber Nail Polish
Justin Bieber may not wear nail polish, but that doesn’t stop him from cashing in on the millions of adolescent girls who’ll be painting their fingers shades of lavender, grape, silver, dark blue, bright red and glitter come this Holiday season.
The teen pop heartthrob is unveiling a line of nail polishes from Nicole by OPI, called the “One Less Lonely Girl” collection, that will be available exclusively at Walmart in December 2010, later debuting in Target and Sears by February, 2011.
Comments Off on Danny Seo Unveils Simmons Vegan Natural Care Mattresses (Video)
If you eat vegan and wear vegan, you should also be sleeping vegan.
Consumers on the lookout for natural, earth-friendly mattresses may be disappointed to learn many use wool as an alternative to the chemicals required to make them flame-retardant.
Danny Seo, eco stylist and consultant on CBS’ The Early Show and Better Homes and Gardens, unveils the Simmons Natural Care Mattress line in this video, made from rubber-tree based latex and a foam enhanced with soy. Now you can sleep, eat, relax, watch TV or do, ahem, any other activity on a completely animal-free bed.
“The mattress is made primarily from natural rubber tree based latex — a biodegradable material that’s also hypoallergenic and naturally dust mite, mold and mildew resistant. Beneath the latex is a layer of base foam enhanced with soy. The use of soy, as opposed to traditional foam, means that less petroleum was used in the manufacturing process, which ultimately leads to a lighter carbon footprint.”
Comments Off on Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt Together In Man-Eating “The Tiger” Movie
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will star alongside each other in Darren Aronofsky’s film, The Tiger. According to Entertainment.ie, the movie will be the first the couple has starred in together since Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
The Tiger centers around an animal rights activist who must save a village of people from a tiger who’s become accustomed to the taste of human flesh, a phenomena, according to Save The Tiger Fund, is rare.
Humans moving into areas where tigers inhabit and tigers that are too sick or injured to catch normal prey of wild pig, wild cattle and several species of deer are usually the causes of man-eating tigers’ behavior.
eBlockwatch says the rapper and the rhino have much in common, such as the fact they’ve both survived being shot 9 times. Not sure if this is the only reason the group feels 50 is the chosen one for being a godfather, but a spokesperson is sure his fame can influence poaching.
“We want to ask him if he wants to become the godfather of our rhino so that he can create awareness worldwide about rhino poaching.”
Phila has also survived two attempts at removing her horn. During the first attempt, part of it was cut off. 50 Cent’s nose in still intact, though.
Though some may find the rapper’s invitation somewhat humorous, sad statistics on poaching make it hard to cry any tears of joy.
Comments Off on Kim Barnouin “Skinny Bitch: Ultimate Everyday Cookbook”
"Skinny Bitch: Ultimate Everyday Cookbook"
One half of the Skinny Bitches is back, with a book filled with not only recipes, diet and fitness advice, but thoughts on eating to create and maintain a healthier planet.
In Skinny Bitch: Ultimate Everyday Cookbook, author Kim Barnouin, uses a chapter of her latest work to give a firm lecture on sustainable eating minus the animal rights component.
“This is not where I criticize factory farming for its inhumane and utter disdain for animal welfare,” Barnouin writes. “Skinny Bitch already did that. Actually, I’ve got a whole other bone to pick with the industry: our food system and its immense contributions to greenhouse gas emission and global warming.”
