NBC's 4th National Heads-Up Poker Championship

Poker champ Daniel Negreanu was asked by a fan how to impress a lady with a good vegetarian meal.

Negreanu admits it’s usually his assistant who creates meatless miracles in the kitchen, but he did have a few suggestions.

Negreanu said start off with a caprese salad with tofu mozzarella.

Then for the real meal, he suggested seitan skewers with grilled vegetables.

Finally, for dessert, Negreanu recommended soy yogurt parfait with strawberries and granola.

If this guy isn’t currently accepting marriage proposals, he should be!

2008 Republican National Convention: Day 3

Mitt Romney may be a secret veg or pescatarian.

According to Page Six, the Governor of Massachusetts was spotted posing for the camera with staff at The Great American Health Bar at 57th Street in New York.

From the menu, the restaurant looks to be nearly vegetarian, serving plant based wraps, soups, pizzas and more, with a few seafood items here and there.

So refreshing to see a politician committed to his people and a good diet.

Walt Disney Pictures & Buena Vista Records Alice in Wonderland Fan Event

Christofer Ingle of Never Shout Never told Artists Direct how the song “Jane Doe” from the band’s latest album, What Is Love was created.

“I was actually sitting in a Santa Monica restaurant, eating with one of my buddies. There was this beautiful waitress, and I didn’t know her name but she served me an awesome veggie burger. I was like, “I’m going to write her a song, I’m going to go back and play it for her and I’m going to win her heart.” So I went back to my beach house and then started writing this crazy song about a girl named “Jane Doe” because I didn’t know the waitress’s name yet. I never ended up playing it for her though. It was really sad that I chickened out.”

Sad that Christofer didn’t get the girl, but at least he got a good meal.

Was the waitress really that hot or did the veggie burger serve as an aphrodisiac?

Vegan Soul Kitchen Author Bryant Terry Discusses The Gut Reaction

Vegan Soul Kitchen by Bryant Terry

Vegan Soul Kitchen by Bryant Terry

Bryant Terry, chef, food activist and author of Vegan Soul Kitchen, has offered his thoughts on getting people to eat better.

Terry describes the process as starting from the “visceral” and ending at the “political” level. This means appealing to people’s basic needs first by making sure the food on the plate is palatable.

“Visceral meaning that first gut reaction, where you’re sitting around the table and eating delicious food!” he said “We’re working towards good food at the table and ending the negative perceptions around healthy food and a plant-based diet.”

The last stop, of course, is at Capitol Hill.

“The ultimate goal is towards helping people organize to make policy changes. That means supporting small farmers who are doing things right, and not continuing to support the large-scale producers who damage the public health. And then actually following through with that [on a greater scale] by getting the populace to put pressure on the policymakers.”

Gomez says in the March 2010 issue of Vegetarian Times he is a mostly “veggie-burger-in-the-microwave kind of guy”, but he’s also known to whip up a curry every now and then.

If only everyone could download the secret to setting the timer so the veggie burger comes out perfect.

Drew Barrymore Fussy Vegetarian Foodie

Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, February 27th, 2010 in Actresses, Food & Drink.

16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards - Press Room

Drew Barrymore says it’s hard to please her on a dinner date because her diet makes her finicky.

“I’m a bit of a picky eater, but that’s because I’m a vegetarian,” she said, according to Contact Music.

But when Drew described her favorite foods as grilled cheese sandwiches, peanut butter sandwiches and macaroni and cheese, it made her seem like any other veggie woman who has to brown bag it everyday for work.

Drew’s favorite foods serve as perfectly good example that eating vegetarian doesn’t mean you’ll have a difficult time shopping for items at the grocery store.

For those that still want to play food diva, there are plenty of ways to jazz up a old fashioned comfort food meal.

PB & J on whole wheat bread or baguette? Why not try almond butter next time?
