Jennifer Aniston Wants Mexican Restaurant: We Suggest Sin Carne

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, September 17th, 2009 in Actresses, Food & Drink, Videos.

So if you watched Late Night With Conan O’Brien Tuesday, you might have heard Jennifer Aniston mention she’s interested in starting her own Mexican Restaurant.

We think she should take the plunge and make a vegetarian Mexican restaurant.

Beans, rice and vegetables make up a good portion of the Mexican Diet.

And texturized vegetable protein, faux chicken or pork taste so similar to meat, customers would never miss the real thing.

Chrissie Hynde was able to build a successful Italian vegan eatery, The Vegiterranean, in a meat eating Midwestern town and says mostly meat eaters frequent it.

Jen would have no problem selling Mexican meatless.

Meatless Mouthful: Jane Goodall Describes Best Vegetarian Meal

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, September 17th, 2009 in Authors, Books, Food & Drink, Meatless Mouthful.

Jane Goodall In Conversation With Thane Maynard

“I was literally in the middle of nowhere, in a forest in the northern Republic of Congo, visiting people studying chimps. We were out one evening in the forest with pygmy trackers. They picked these orange mushrooms, along with a large leaf from a low-lying plant-I have no idea of its name. They cooked them together; the leaves made a kind of broth. It was absolutely delicious, and the vibrant orange and green colors were so beautiful. And it was definitely vegetarian.”

—-Jane Goodall, in an interview in the print October 2009 issue of Vegetarian Times.

Jane has a new book out this month, Hope for Animals and Their World: How Endangered Species Are Being Rescued from the Brink, and the renowned scientist who studied primates shares his insights on the future of the animal kingdom as so many species becoming extinct.

Jeremy Piven Learned “The Sweet Truth” From Kelly Keough

23rd Annual Nautica Malibu Triathalon

Jeremy Piven received a sugar free, gluten free and dairy free birthday cake while on the set of Entourage from chef Kelly Keough.

Yeah, the former mercury poisoning bedfellow was probably disappointed the cake was fish-free as well.

But the event led to an increase in Keough’s sales and she has her own cooking show on the Veria channel called The Sweet Truth.

Kelly is also the author of Sugar-Free Gluten-Free Baking and Desserts.

Closure In Moscow Chris DeCinque Gives Tofu Or Seitan Answers

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, September 17th, 2009 in Food & Drink, Male Singers.

Chris DeCinque, front man for the rising Australian band Closure In Moscow sat down with Vegnews.com to discuss his thoughts on being vegan, including the most important question every vegetarian should be able to answer.

Tofu or seitan?

Chris chose seitan, along with soy milk over rice and and vegan sesame prawn toast.

“Back home in Australia you can’t go past vegan sesame prawn toast—to die for. It’s basically deep-fried batter stuffed with “prawn” filling and a layer of sesame seeds on top, cut into the shape of toast. Simple, but amazing.”

Wonder if fellow Australian vegan musician Missy Higgins snacks on that during her home visits?

There is life after Vegemite down under.

Gunnar Peterson, Celebrity Fitness Expert, Promotes Silk Soy Milk

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, September 17th, 2009 in Business, Food & Drink.

3rd Annual Matt Leinart Foundation Bowling Night

Gunnar Peterson, a celebrity fitness trainer, has teamed up with Silk Soy Milk to promote the dairy free goodness drink.

“I encourage all of my clients to choose foods that satisfy their hunger and supply them with enough energy and fuel to get through a busy day,” said Peterson.

“Silk soymilk is one of the easiest ways to add protein into your daily diet. With nutrient-rich ingredients like whole harvested soybeans, it’s really a perfect protein for any time of the day.”

Peterson has worked with many professional sports players in the NFL, NBA, NHL and NCAA.

We’re not sure of Gunnar’s vegetarian status. Would it have been more suitable to have vegetarian Biggest Loser coach Bob Harper promote Silk?

“Soymilk contains all of the essential amino acids for optimum health and experts agree that soy protein is comparable to the protein found in dairy, meat and eggs,” Peterson added. “But, unlike many animal-protein sources, Silk is low in saturated fat and 100 percent cholesterol free.”

Yay!

Now show us the soybean mustache, Gunnar.
