I had no idea she had a contract with Cover Girl. I think Ellen is great. But shame on her for that. She is much too smart for sponsoring a company that tests their products on animals. She should know better. I hope she’s not one of those Vegans who thinks that cage-free eggs are OK to eat.

I love it. Early enough for people to try before Thanksgiving. Maybe more people will do try out vegan for the holiday.

I wasn’t crazy about that Celebration Roast when I tried it, but that sure does look pretty. And I’m glad she’s using the word “vegan” in reference to the food her chef makes.

I hope that when Ellen’s contract with CG ends, she doesn’t re-sign. Or she gives all her money to an antivivisection group.

[...] In fact, click here for all the info on the food they made on the show. And you can watch the section of the show he was on. They really promote veganism on the show and on Ellen’s website. And just for the record, I really want a personal chef. Yes, I love cooking, but after a long day, I would love to come home and see beautiful meals magically appear before me. That’s certainly not going to happen, but a girl can dream. [...]

Well, it’s pretty easy to become vegan overnight if you have a sweet vegan chef like this guy.

But agreed, she’s awesome. Especially for bringing this guy on the show.

Agreed. I have very little tolerance for people who give Ellen hell about the Cover Girl thing. Firstly, she signed the contract before she was vegan and really invested in animal rights. Secondly, if we go around focusing on what people AREN’T doing, nothing will get done. Ellen is making a massive difference in the world and for that she should be congratulated.

I know a lot of people have been bagging on Ellen because of the cosmetics issue (Ellen as Cover Girl spokesgal)but I think it’s great when she does stuff like this. I give her credit-after all, I think becoming a vegetarian or vegan is usually a process for most people and not something that happens overnight. I have faith that she will get there…
