Is Isaiah Mustafa Craving Pasta On His Vegan, Gluten-Free Diet?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, July 28th, 2010 in Athletes-Games-Sports, Food & Drink.

Isaiah Mustafa

Isaiah Mustafa embarked on a vegan cleanse and there’s data to show he’ll smell better even without Old Spice by doing so.

The sexy actor from the deodorant and fragrance commercials isn’t complaining about the lack of meat or dairy in his diet. He’s missing the whole wheat bread!

“Right now, I’m vegan-cleansing: no processed sugar, no caffeine, no alcohol, no animal products and no gluten,” the former NFL wide receiver said. “I never knew what gluten was before. Now I know exactly what it is, and it’s everything I want!”

Actually, this sounds rather promising. If all the guy wants is a muffin or spaghetti, there’s a chance he’ll stay animal-free once his cleanse is over. But we do feel for him, considering gluten is in so many delicious foods considered staples like bread, pasta, waffles, baked desserts, couscous, cereal, soy sauces and the beloved figure worshiped by the most devout vegans–seitan!

Might we suggest gluten-free pastas to get him through this rough period?

Chelsea Clinton Wedding Guests Need Eco-Friendly Porta Potties

Chelsea Clinton

We already know the kinds of stuff going into Chelsea Clinton‘s wedding guests (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free) give her points for a green ceremony foodwise. But what about the facilities taking care of things going out?

True, it’s not the most pleasant thought to have, but UK Express is reporting the couple and family has rented several portable “loos” complete with hot water and stereo music. Hopefully, no one will be on the loo so long they can listen to one of those really long songs like American Pie or Purple Rain in its entirety.

Like many other aspects of home living, portable potties can be made green with a variety of options.

From July 25th-July 31st, you’re invited to celebrate National Salad Week. According to a press release from the Association for Dressings and Sauces (yes, it actually exist), 95% of Americans eat salad at least three times a week and people who eat salads regularly are perceived as “healthier, happier and sexier” (must be the phallic shaped asparagus or libido enhancing celery ).

To help kick off the celebration, we bring you Mark Bittman‘s collection of 101 Simple Salads for the Season. The flexitarian food writer who coined the phrase “vegan until 6,” has devoted an entire section to vegetarian and mostly vegan, although many salads not included in the category do not contain meat or cheese. The noodle category also contains many vegetarian options.

Here are a few of our favorite leaf collections packed with plant based protein:

Janet Jackson

Pamela Anderson has called Janet Jackson “greedy” for agreeing to be the cover girl for Blackglama’s ad campaign, “What Becomes A Legend Most?”

Anderson told OUT magazine, “It’s disappointing. She has spoken out against fur before. I don’t know why some people stop listening to their heart. I guess some people get greedy, but it’s sad.”

Jackson is keeping mum about the criticism and instead using every opportunity to insert (more than likely highly scripted) positive words about the company that’s paying her to do so.
