Vegetarian Star

“My fantasy scenario is that I get to do a really great play every other year, and one or two amazing films every year — and the rest of the time, just keep trying to make the world happier with healthier foods and education on health and the planet.”

—-Alicia Silverstone to WWD, on balancing both her acting career and being an outspoken proponent on what she calls the “food revolution.”

Have you started your own food revolution and picked up a copy of her vegan recipe book, The Kind Diet?

Will BabyCakes new donuts be worth every penny to the last crumb?

Happy Poet

Happy Poet is set to premier at the Alamo Ritz March 14, 15 and 18 as part of the SXSW Film Festival.

Cinematical has a brief description of the film:

“An all-organic, mostly vegetarian comedy about Bill, a struggling poet who pours his heart, soul, and last few dollars into starting a healthy food stand, surprising friends and customers with his dry wit and offbeat passion. Motivated by help from a rag-tag group of supporters and a budding romance with a poetry-loving customer, Bill strives to make a difference in the world, until surprising complications jeopardize his new friendships and threaten Bill’s dreams for a hot dog-free future.”

Check out the trailer for Happy Poet below.

Sure Playboy is known for its porn, but did you know it can also point you in the direction of good food porn?

The magazine has picked its 25 top pizzerias in the U.S., and one Philadelphia pizzeria named “Best in Philly” made the cut.

Most pizzas can be ordered without cheese, but there’s something exciting about walking into an eatery knowing there’s a pie, rich in flavor and tradition, already waiting for you.

Tacconelli’s in Philadelphia offers the tomato pie, a thick crust variety they describe as, “no cheese and a lot of sauce.”

Guys will want to head over to the site to find out which other pizza places made the A-list and take a look at all the graphic pictures of…tomatoes, onions and peppers over thin crust.

Someone at L Magazine swears by the seitan Moby was at New York restaurant Angelica Kitchen recently.

In between vegan snacks, the musician took to his blog to announce his return to NYC and write about his upcoming book, Gristle.

The book is a collection of writings by various  experts in their respective  fields on effects of meat production on animals, workers in the industry, human health and the environment.

“I’ll be travelling around promoting a bit. and, of course, neither Miyun or I are making a penny from the book, with all proceeds going to animal organizations.”

Hope Oprah adds this to her book club.

Ivey accepted a challenge from Tom Dwan not to eat any meat or fish for an entire year in exchange for a million dollars.

“I’m going to become a vegetarian for a year for a million dollars,” Ivey told High Stakes Poker cohost, Kara Scott. “I was thinking about doing it for a while, so this is kind of like an added incentive.”

Another source says Ivey tried to ask for $2 million, but eventually settled on one.

Joss Stone‘s traveled to some beautiful places in her lifetime, including Greece, Costa Rica and Turkey.

She likes to bring along her dogs, and although she usually has breathtaking experiences, not all of her travel adventures have been positive.

Joss says a reservation error landed her in a hotel with ants and an unpleasant smell.

Then there’s always the food and drink dilemma, which Joss says go hand in hand since so much of her food requires rinsing with fresh water.

“I avoid drinking the water until I know whether it is clean or not. I’ve heard loads of horror stories of people being ill and coming down with diarrhea just from drinking the water in other countries. It makes it extra difficult for me because I’m a vegetarian, and most of the salads and vegetables are washed using tap water.”

Joss’s is currently performing to promote her lastest album, Colour Me Free.
