King Curtis: Unvegan Hero

A few of my loyal friends enlightened me to the existence of this wonderful video circulating the interwebs. It is a clip taken from the life-destroying reality show known as Wife Swap. This particular episode features a delightful little boy who humbly refers to himself as King Curtis. His new mother, Joy, has taken it upon herself to rid the house of junk food (ie. good food) and King Curtis wants nothing to do with that.

As Joy is about to throw away the bacon, King Curtis declares, “Bacon is good for me.” It seems he is a little unvegan in the making.

Nepenthes Attenboroughii: Unvegan Hero

Although Nepenthes Attenboroughii would be a pretty badass name, it is actually the name of a recently-discovered plant in the Philippines.

Apparently not all heroes come in human form.

This plant lives by the tenets of unvegans everywhere, because it is no ordinary plant. In fact, it is a giant pitcher plant. When people think of plants that eat animals, Venus Flytraps or Little Shop of Horrors are typically the first things that come to mind. Well, Venus Flytraps are child’s play compared to Nepenthes Attenboroughii, which is capable of consuming entire rodents.

Ted Nugent: Unvegan Hero

Well, it was really only a matter of time before Ted Nugent got the spotlight on People for the Ethical Eatment of Animals. We all know he is a great rock star and outdoorist (read: hunter), but in a recent episode of Penn & Teller: Bullshit, he really goes off on animal rights “extremists” like PETA. He declares, “Meat is food. Case closed.”

He also gets a little personal on the subject, saying that the lives of his children have been threatened because of the lifestyle they live as meat eaters. Amazing that these extremists care more for the animals than for their fellow humans.

Anthony Bourdain: Unvegan Hero

Anthony Bourdain of No Reservations gets paid to travel the world and eat. It’s not a shabby job, and one I would kill for (almost). Living a life like that, you would think that he might get soft, but this is not so. In his travels, he has eaten animals bits of all shapes and sizes, from sheep testicles to raw seal eyeballs. Oh, and he also hates vegetarians.

The Bacon Brothers: Unvegan Heroes

It feels so wrong to crave bacon right now.

Here’s a fun little picture that’s been floating around the interweb. Everyone is calling them the Bacon Brothers and I see no reason to stop that trend.

It’s almost like the creators of these tuxedos saw the Meatwad dress and knew they had to make a male counterpart.

Eric Brocklebank: Unvegan Hero

The American Independence Day is just around the corner, which usually means a weekend of fireworks, BBQs and patriotism. For an unlucky UK man, a recent BBQ traded in fireworks for lightning bolts.

Eric Brocklebank was innocently cooking some sausages when lightning decided to make a rapid pass through his body via a BBQ fork. Miraculously, he survived and had only one thing on his mind: sausages. According to Brocklebank, “I was told the only thing I could say as I was drifting in and out of consciousness was ‘sausages.'”

Neanderthals: Unvegan Heroes

A recent discovery of a Neanderthal fossil in the North Sea has the carnivorous world abuzz. According to the BBC News, Analysis of the skull fragment has revealed that the Neanderthal “survived on a diet dominated by meat.”

It is a wonder how such a superior species so high on the food chain could have been wiped from the earth entirely. Maybe a few vegetarian homo sapiens came along and mixed some salmonella-tainted vegetables in their food and caused a pandemic. I’m not a scientist, but I’m not above fabricating potentially mind-blowing theories.

Jia: Unvegan Hero

I really don’t know what this girl’s last name is, but I know she is awesome. How do I know? Because she made a friggin’ dress out of meat. And not just any meat: salami! Oh and bacon.

Apparently she did this for an Aqua Teen Hunger Force party and was supposed to be the shapeless (and hilarious) lump of meat known as Meatwad.

The dress itself isn’t exactly shapeless and looks good enough to eat. Check out all the pictures here.

Olivia Munn: Unvegan Hero

On Hulu the other day, I happened to catch this short commercial for what is supposedly called the Bingathon. Honestly, I have no idea what a Bingathon is, but what really caught my attention was Olivia Munn.

After watching this beautiful promo of her being presented with a meaty hot dog necklace, I set out to learn more. Apparently she is the host of show on G4 called Attack of the Show. I found another equally amazing clip involving her and hot dogs in my search.

Stephen Colbert: Unvegan Hero

Stephen Colbert welcomed Eric Schlosser, the man behind Fast Food Nation and the upcoming Food, Inc., to The Colbert Report last night. In these films, Schlosser tries to convince the world how terrible the current food system in our country is.

Colbert, in his typically hilarious way, seems to have a retort for everything that Schlosser says. At one point he says, “God gave us dominion over the animals…and if we can get 50,000 of them in one spot, why shouldn’t we?” Who can argue with that?
