If you love peanut butter and animals, grab a few jars of the nut butter designed to celebrate People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals’ 30th anniversary, PeTA Butter.

With a name so quirky, PeTA Butter could almost be interpreted as an April Fools’ post, but these 16 oz. jars that sell for about $5 were crafted by the folks at New York based Peanut Butter & Co, a maker of 10 varieties of peanut butter flavors, each given unique and delicious sounding names like Dark Chocolate Dreams, White Chocolate Wonderful, Cinnamon Raisin Swirl and Mighty Maple.

Win Fresh, Hand Delivered Earth Balance Soymilk Coupon

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, September 8th, 2010 in Food & Drink, Giveaways.

Milk with edamame

In the good ol’ days, fresh milk was delivered to your doorstep that came from a cow in someone’s backyard that roamed freely and wasn’t on any numerous “roids” designed to get her pumping faster.

Those days are gone, but Vegetarian Star is putting a twist on milk delivery in 2010.

Get soymilk delivered to your door. Enter the contest to win one of four coupons for a free carton of Earth Balance’s new vegan, organic, non-GMO Project Verified soymilk that comes in original, chocolate, vanilla and unsweetened.

The coupon doesn’t get any fresher, as it’s hand delivered by the mailman (or mailwoman). You still have to (hopefully, in the interest of being green) bike or walk to Whole Foods to redeem it though.

Yum.

Meatless Mouthful–Tal Ronnen On Plant Protein Cluelessness

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, September 8th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Meatless Mouthful.

“If you really look at the way people eat in North America today, it’s so different from other cultures. When we think of the word protein, it’s almost the same meaning as meat. In other cultures, protein comes from plant-based sources: In South America, it’s whole grains; in Mexico, it’s beans; in India, it’s lentils; in Asia, it’s soy. Not all of those cultures are vegetarian, obviously, but the bulk of their protein intake is from plant-based sources. In the U.S., we don’t know how to address vegetarian protein.”

Lady Gaga Vogue Hommes Japan

Lady Gaga‘s latest publicity stunt is to get down and dirty with raw meat on the cover on September’s Vogue Hommes Japan.

Ingrid Newkirk, president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, has to say.

“Oh, Lady Gaga’s job is to do outlandish things, and this certainly qualifies as outlandish because meat is something you want to avoid putting on or in your body.”

Corinne Bailey Rae Puts Her Vegetarian Chili On

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, September 8th, 2010 in Business, Female Musicians, Female Singers, Food & Drink, Recipes.


Corinne Bailey Rae revealed to Afro she has a thing for ethical clothing and food. The “Put Your Records On” singer likes Stella McCartney fashion and loves making vegetarian chili at home.

“I like to cook stews and things, dishes where the heat does all the work. So, it’s just like chopping and flavoring. Veggie chili would be my favorite thing to cook because it’s really great but not much work.”

How much work goes into chili really depends on what you put in it. The self-proclaimed Best Vegetarian Chili In The World recipe has a 15 minute prep time and incorporates several types of beans, corn and other veggies and vegetarian burger crumbles.

For even less work, buy an already made veggie chili by a company known for producing meatless delights like Amy’s Kitchen canned vegetarian chili or Lightlife’s Smart Chili in a microwaveable bag.

Meatless Mouthful–Paul Watson’s First Activism Memories

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, September 7th, 2010 in Animal Issues, Meatless Mouthful.

“I was raised in an eastern Canadian fishing village right on the Maine border, called St. Andrews. I used to swim with these beavers in a beaver pond when I was 10. I went back when I was 11 and found there were no more beavers. I found that trappers had taken them all so I became quite angry and that winter I began to walk the trap lines and free animals from the traps and destroy the traps. So that was really my first venture into activism.”

–Sea Shepherd’s Paul Watson, on his first memory of animal activism to The Faster Times.
