Comments Off on Chelsea Clinton Orders Gluten-Free Cake For Wedding
More details on the Chelsea Clinton and lifelong friend Marc Mezvinsky wedding are being leaked as the July 31st wedding date approaches.
It’s already been reported that the reception menu will contain vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free items. Now it’s been discovered that not only is Chelsea vegan, she is allergic to gluten and also follows a gluten-free diet, and the cake will be made with such specifications.
Gluten, the protein found in wheat, barley and rye causes small intestine damage to those with a sensitivity to it and prevents them from absorbing nutrients. Common alternatives include oats, millet, rice and items labelled “gluten-free,” but according to a new survey, there are many products claiming to be gluten-free that have been tested and contain contaminants.

Comments Off on Stephen Colbert Mocks Environmentalists, Organic Food (Video)
Are treehuggers out to save the Earth to help everyone who inhabits it? Or will they take everything for themselves and tie-dye it?
Stephen Colbert pokes fun of environmentalists in this clip from his segment of On Topic: The Environment–Wimpy Treehuggers and Dirty Hippies from The Colbert Report.
He makes hypocrites out of a group of people rebuilding Noah’s ark to raise awareness about global warming, saying, “For a bunch of environmentalists, they’re sure cutting down a lot of trees.”
Freegans–those who eat leftover from the garbage–are not spared as well as the organic food industry.
“I’ve always been against organic foods. If I wanted to ingest something a hippie picked, I would eat an autoharp.”

Brigitte Bardot found out about the Russian entrepreneurs who made a donkey parasail over a beach, forcing beach goers that included children to hear the animal screaming in terror. Makes you wonder who was really the ass in that situation.
Pretty easy to guess she’s not too happy about the fact the two will not face animal cruelty or any other charges. That’s why she wrote to Russian prosecutor Yury Chaika, asking the Russian official to reconsider legal action against the donkey’s owner.
“The donkey was strapped to a parachute and for more than half an hour was sailing in the air, screaming from horror and causing shock amongst children and adults on the beach.”

Comments Off on Meatless Mouthful–Johnny Marr Proud Album Made Fans Vegetarian
“I am very proud of the fact that 20 years on people tell me they became a vegetarian as a result of ‘Meat is Murder. I think that is quite literally rock music changing someone’s life – it’s certainly changing the life of animals. It is one of the things I am most proud of. I think it was quirky to call the album ‘Meat is Murder’ and it was way ahead of its time, but we were on a label that let us do that kind of thing.”
—Johnny Marr, in a new book by author Neil Taylor titled “Document and Eyewitness: An Intimate History of Rough Trade” on how The Smith’s 1985 album Meat Is Murder inspired many of his fans to stop eating animals.

Comments Off on GZA–The Force Behind Wu-Tang Clan’s Vegetarianism
GZA is one of the founding members of the hip hop group Wu Tang Clan. This leader is not only an entrepreneur, he’s also an activist–he convinced the rest of the guys to go vegetarian. GZA interviewed with Eater on his diet, the band and his favorite veggie restaurants to patronize.
It all started with pork:
Yeah, none of the Clan members eat pork but you only have about four of us that are vegetarians, including DJ Mathematics — RZA, GZA, MastaKilla and oh! I think Meth is vegetarian now too! Cuz I used to always get on him with his steaks. I used to say you “you eatin’ a pig pussy T-Bone?” He’d be like, “C’mon Jus, cmon, GZA, man stop!” And then about a year and a half ago he was like, “You know I’m a vegetarian now, right?” I heard Redman was one too now actually.
