Vegetarian Star

Fans that follow Anne Hathaway‘s diet (by reading about it, not snooping through her trash for DNA-laced wrappers you can sell on eBay) know she’s rumored to be an on again/off again vegetarian and vegan.

As of last May, she was roasting chicken. But a recent interview with Metro reveals she’s back on and standing up to the peer pressure of sushi.

Jonathan Safran Foer‘s Authors@Google discussion covers all the points you would expect from the younger generation’s father of factory farming education on how everyone should reduce their meat intake–from less livestock emitting gases into the environment to the public health crisis being created by the use of so many antibiotics on farms to the cruel and painful ways animals are treated.

You can’t read through Eating Animals, read an interview or listen to a speech by Foer without realizing you should at least partake in Meatless Monday. But what about those who are afraid to call themselves the big “V” word in fear of criticism when they fail?

"Skinny Bitch: Ultimate Everyday Cookbook"

If cutting back on desserts is one of your New Year’s resolutions, you may want to put it on hold until you’ve gobbled up Kim Barnouin‘s Vegan Apple Pie.

A treat that Barnouin’s mother has made for 40 years, Jack’s Grandma’s Apple Pie has undergone a few transformations to suit the Skinny Bitch author’s egg and dairy-free dietary preferences.

Earth Balance vegan butter and Spectrum vegetable shortening are Kim’s preferred switches for the pie, but she was nice enough to give other vegan baking suggestions during her interview with EcoStiletto.

We gave you the best vegetarian news stories of 2010. But a lot of anti-veg events made headlines too. Here’s the best of the worst.

10. Johnny Weir ruffles fur feathers during the winter Olympics. It’s bad enough he picks a costume with rabbit fur around the collar. After being criticized, he’s says he’ll “wear fur again” and it’s all just a part of creative expression. Someone hit the ice with his head one time too many while practicing the double-dunce-klutz.

9. Sarah Palin kills caribou on TLC reality show, “Sarah Palin’s Alaska.” Someone who feeds her family potentially lead contaminated meat shouldn’t be criticizing Mrs. Obama’s initiatives to make school lunches healthier. In 2008, she gave an interview while Tom turkey got his head chopped off. In 2010, it’s Rudolph. Easter Bunny, dude, watch your back!

8. Angelina Jolie says secret beauty tip is steak. This is coming from an ex-vegan actress who was too lazy to do her research and learn to eat vegan properly, so she failed, went back to meat, and praised it for giving her that sexy “Salt” look. Would love to see what her heart looks like from all the salt in processed meats.

7. KT Tunstall is vegetarian–except for pig’s blood. Sure, some vegans will cheat and eat grandma’s butter cookies at Christmas. But KT Tunstall discussed in detail how scrumptious black pudding, a congealed “treat” made from pig’s blood, was even though she normally eats tofu and beans. “Suddenly we see” Twilight vegetarian vampire taking a whole new meaning.

Here are a few of the top vegetarian stories featuring the famous and those who rose to fame because of their stance on food, animals and the environment.

10. The Apprentice is vegetarian. Brandy Kuentzel ran an eco-friendly cupcake truck before she was hired as Trump’s leading business lady. She revealed to us during an interview that she’d love to host a show with her best friend about all things sustainable. That show can’t come soon enough as we need some anti Paula Deen sausage segments on daytime.

9. A vegan baker wins “Cupcake Wars.” Chloe Coscarelli showed the world vegan is tasty. Very tasty. She won the war on the Food Network with her recipes for Ginger Nutmeg Spice with Date Caramel Drizzle, Chocolate Strawberry Shortcake, Crème-filled Chocolate Orange with Candied Orange Peel, and Raspberry Tiramisu.

8. Bob Harper invites “The Biggest Loser” contestants in home for vegan meal. Yum. Everybody was a winner on that episode, including Harper’s fans, who could download the recipes from his website. Harper showed America one of the best ways to lose weight healthily without sacrificing good grub.

Jess Origliasso celebrated a birthday on Christmas. Did this mean double presents? Or double the number of yummy, tasty veggie tacos?

One-half of the pop duo The Veronicas, Jess is seen is these videos demonstrating how to make her almost vegan tacos and guacamole dip.

Jess calls them vegan, but like many people, probably isn’t aware that the brand of faux cheese she’s using contains casein, a milk protein often added to soy and other imitation cheeses. A simple switch to a truly vegan cheese like Teese or Daiya will give you the genuine vegan touch.

The Veronicas are often on the road and because of this, they can’t always access an oven. This is why Jess chose refried beans instead of faux meat because she prefers to fry imitation meats in a saucepan. Taco shells can be microwaved too.

“About 45 seconds if you put all of them in,” Jess says, referring to the length of time it takes to warm an entire box of shells.

These tacos get the approval of “Slim Dusty,” a meat-eating, cow farm owner who chose to hide his identity. Watch the videos below for full instructions for making the veggie tacos and guacamole and tell us if they get your approval as well.

We may be posting Ke$ha‘s Holiday Greetings a day later, but the message she’s wearing is timeless.

It’s cold outside and symbol girl is looking kind of furry, but don’t fret. The vegetarian singer has said before she always fakes it for the camera.

“If you see me in fur, it’s always fake,” Kesha said.

While we’re not worried about Kesha’s fur coat, we are, however, concerned for the person in the background exposing his bare buns to relieve himself in the snow. After all, it’s freezing outside. The wind must be unbearable. Even worse, he’s wearing a fur coat but has not publicly declared himself real fur-free.

Take advantage of the after Christmas sales now and purchase your faux fur items from trusted sources like Donna Salyer’s Fabulous Furs.
