Vegetarian Star

Let's Get Baked on Myspace

Mat Dunlap and Dave Ewenson have a cooking show called Let’s Get Baked, where they make vegetarian and vegan dishes with the help of musicians.

The show’s title, along with the fact they’re cooking stereotypically hippie food, might lead some to believe they’re putting more than raw coconut in the pies. But that’s not the case, according to Dunlap. It’s a rated G, straight-edge kind of show.

“It comes up often. We generally we keep the show squeaky clean,” Dunlap said.

“We play on the fact we’re two hoser guys in the kitchen…and who knows what the bands did before they show up to our house. If they have the munchies, we’ll feed them. The only thing we smoke is tofu and the only thing we roll are big fat burritos.”

Vegan shoe designer Elizabeth Olsen has her own slideshow going on at New York Magazine.

The pics feature several of Elizabeth’s designs like the Balance in Black and Red; Ultra Suede on the left and Brazil in Citron; Ultra Suede on the right.

Elizabeth’s been a vegetarian for 19 years and a vegan for the past 2 years.

“I wanted to be the example of stylishness being synonymous with being aware of where your item came from, what it’s made of, and its impact on the earth, animals, and people,” she said, of her decision to launch her collection.

And just cause they’re vegan, doesn’t mean they have to be plain or ugly.

“Why should something, because it is vegan or earth-friendly, always be in neutral colors, or a loose relaxed fit?”

A new episode of Whale Wars is on Animal Planet tonight at 9PM EST, and we’ve got some footage of tonight’s episode featuring the greatest prank an adult can do. Best part: it’s all in the name of saving whales.

The Sea Shepherd crew does a lot of tactics to prevent Japanese whalers from killing whales, including throwing stinkbombs on their boat to create a rather…unpleasant experience.

Watch the clip, “Stinkbomb Showdown,” for a trip down memory lane of high school toilet papering the Principal’s home. Wait…you never did that. You were the good kid and would never do something so…wasteful and not environmentally friendly.

Moby recently sat down and interviewed himself.

Yes, you read right. In a hilarious interview, cool video technique combines with Moby’s strange sense of humor, allowing the singer and musician to take on two different personas, one that mocks and ridicules him while asking questions.

“So while we’re here, you got any of that self-righteous vegan crap you want to talk about?” asked Moby’s alter ego, who sports a backwards cap.

“Well, it’s not self-righteous,” Moby answers. “At least, I hope it’s not self-righteous. I’ve been a vegan now for 22 years.”

“Boooring,” sighs alter ego Moby.

“If other people choose to eat meat or dairy products, that’s their choice. I don’t really want to judge them. I hope I’m not being too self-righteous.”

Alter ego Moby says he really wishes Eminem had kicked Moby’s ass at the MTV awards and asks how it feels to be the least attractive musician in the business.

Man, alter egos can be brutal!

Although she included an entire vegetarian recipe chapter in her Big Orange Book cookbook, it didn’t look as though Rachael Ray was too interested in talking to vegans. Or maybe she just wasn’t interested in talking to Super Vegans.

Roseann Marulli and Joy Askew over at SuperVegan.com set up a Farm Stock Animal Sanctuary booth in Union Park Square with a huge sign overhead that read, “Ask A Vegan.”

It was an opportunity for people to stop by and ask questions about veganism, animal rights, and get literature if they wanted.

Rachael Ray and her husband John Cusimano stopped by, along with their dog Isaboo. John stayed and chatted for a while, but when Rachael found out what the booth was about, she and Isaboo walked away faster than you can say, “Extra Virgin Olive Oil.”

So even though she listened to vegetarians on tour who expressed interest in more veg recipes for her cookbook, don’t expect more vegan recipes anytime soon.

“I guess it’s not just the Food Network that’s afraid of vegans!” Roseann said.

Or maybe it was Isaboo’s idea, as she was scared of what vegan dog food Rachael might try to concoct.

By the way, the gals are still doling out vegan advice every other Saturday, same time, same place.

“If I point my finger at someone, saying, “You should be a vegetarian,” they’re just going to get annoyed…There is definitely a risk [of] alienating people. Maybe one day a week, consider what you are doing. We’re saying, do this for your personal health and in the process you help animals and you help the environment.”

The Telegraph was interviewing Chrissie Hynde when she revealed she was wearing a pair of Stella McCartney faux leather boots.

The price of a Stella shoe can reach up to seven, eight, and nine hundred dollars. Easy for a rock star like Chrissie, but maybe not so much for the rest of us who haven’t released new albums like Break Up The Concrete.

Don’t despair, as Chrissie says, “you can get the cheap junk at the market.”

Sure, cheap synthetic shoes are abundant. But then you have to worry about the chemicals involved in producing them and whether or not someone like your kid sister was gluing them together. And you thought choosing a pair of shoes was all about ensuring they didn’t give you blisters!

Elizabeth Olsen’s got some nice vegan boots for around $250, like the Thriller.

Price still not right? Chuck the boots altogether and pick up some Zoe and Zac shoes from Payless for under $30! They’re made with sustainable and recycled material and some profits go towards planting new trees.  What could be more beautiful, except of course, your feet in them?

Dennis Kucinich is about to get congressional vegan style!

Vegan Earth Day is approaching on June 21st, and the vegan representative of Ohio plans to deliver a statement about it to the floor of Congress. The event will be televised by C-Span and documented permanently in the Congressional Record.

All eyes will be on you Dennis and it’s recorded forever. But no pressure or anything.

According to a statement made by Kucinich’s Press Secretary Nathan White to Bob Linden of the radio program, Go Vegan With Bob Linden, Kucinich is “crafting a proclamation in support of VEGAN EARTH DAY and its goal of increased global awareness of environmental, health, economic, and other benefits of adopting the vegan lifestyle.”

This year’s Vegan Earth Day celebration in California will feature firefighter Rip Esselstyn, author of the Engine 2-Diet, as well as his father, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, who inspired Rip to go veg.
