Brad shames Angie over her food habits, and this isn't the first time.
Wired cover boy and eco-enthusiast Brad Pitt doesn't like the way Angelina chomps on meat. And he doesn't like her feeding it to their children either (forget the Cheetos she has her tots munching on to the left).
From UK's Daily Mail:
It seems Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie can't agree on anything these days.
The couple, who have not been seen together in public since May, have been arguing over how to rear their rainbow brood.
Brad, 45, who has been a vegetarian for decades, wants 34-year-old Angie and their children to give up … Read More
NBC rejects suggestive PETA commercial as obscene.
Vegetarians behind People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) say their meat-free diets make their sex lives superior, but NBC will hear nothing of it. The network rejected PETA's racy "Veggie Love" Super Bowl commercial, saying it depicts a level of sexuality that exceeds their standards. (Was it the suggestion of asparagus penetration or the suggestive pumpkin licking?) Actually, NBC submitted a blush-worthy list of additional shots to be cut before the commercial is resubmitted. It included "touching her breast with her hand while eating broccoli," "pumpkin from behind between legs," "rubbing … Read More

Willing to make a culinary sacrifice? How to date with food preferences and allergies in tow.
Candlelight, red wine, freshly made pasta. Flirting at a small table in a corner infrequently visited by the waiter. Such are the makings of a great date.
But not if you can't eat what they're serving. What if you must start with a 10-minute interrogation: Can the scaloppini be prepared without a dusting of flour? Can I forgo the bed of pasta and just have the red pepper salmon? Does the chef use anything to thicken the risotto? Embarrassing. Your waiter takes a few trips to the kitchen to speak with the chef, and your date progresses in fits … Read More
Culinary preferences (and restrictions) can make or break your love life.
According to a recent New York Times article, finding a perfect match in the bedroom can often be overshadowed by a perfect match in the kitchen. In a time when passions run high for meat, against it, pro-wheat, or anti-animal-anything, dating someone who does not share one’s view can strain the relationship. When an omnivore and a herbivore unite, battle lines could be drawn.
Says the piece:
“Food has a strong subconscious link to love, said Kathryn Zerbe, a psychiatrist who specializes in eating disorders at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland. That is why refusing … Read More
Alicia Silverstone's take on love, PETA and eating vegan.
Most people associate celebrity with SUVs, Manolo Blahniks, and Malibu beach homes. But not Alicia Silverstone. The actress, 30, has chosen to parlay her fame into a life of activism. She has aligned herself with organizations such as PETA—which named her the sexiest vegetarian alive—and the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, which encourages humane alternatives to animal testing.
Silverstone shares her commitment to the issues she cares about with her husband, Christopher Jarecki, front man for the alt-rock band Little Wolverines. After dating for nine years, the couple tied the knot in 2005. Together, they adopted a … Read More
A man's man talks about hunting, cooking strange foods, and ties it all to relationships.
Despite what they claim, not many guys would actually kill for a woman. Steven Rinella will. He’s a hunter, a fisherman, a Montana-bred man of the wild. He cooks. He writes. He makes hearts beat a little faster. And for his debut book, The Scavenger's Guide to Haute Cuisine, he sets out to recreate 45 dishes from Auguste Escoffier's 1903 classic, Le Guide Culinare—with a twist. Traveling from Alaska to Florida, the 31-year old Rinella captured all his own ingredients (stingrays, pigeons, snapping turtles), while somehow managing to hold on to a vegetarian girlfriend. Why do you think people equate … Read More
