Guest guest Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 Check out his Super Bowl menu. I'm suddenly very hungry! S. ---- Get Back to veggies And then there's Super Bowl XXXIX half-time star Paul McCartney, an animal-loving vegan, who was slated to rock the squeaky clean show with a mix of Beatles and Wings hits including ``Drive My Car,'' ``Get Back,'' ``Live and Let Die'' and ``Hey Jude.'' Sir Paul is such a virulent veggie he won't have any animal products anywhere near him. This means that at his press conference at the Jacksonville convention center the other day, all the leather had to be cleared out of the room. The football he was toting was foam, not pigskin. Paul's room at the ritzy Ritz-Carlton on Amelia Island was also leather and animal-product free and his Super Bowl menu included: a wild-mushroom salad with fresh herb dressing; creamy tofu hummus; black bean and corn salad; fried green tomatoes with roasted peppers; marinated grilled tofu steaks with fresh tomato and red onion salsa; an eggplant casserole with shredded vegan cheese; brown rice and baby organic veggies. There was organic fruit with sweet soy yogurt for dessert. 'Cause when it comes to animals, the ex-Beatle just can't Let It Be. http://thetrack.bostonherald.com/moreTrack/view.bg?articleid=67230 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 Hi, Jenni - yep, I really enjoyed the concert, it was awesome! Great music, great performance - and I finally got to see my hero *live*! but no, no slide show.. I think I've heard of this, maybe from his last tour or something (when he didn't come to Norway..) A lot about whaling and stuff, right? (..maybe a bit " risky " to do that in Norway..though he totally has my sympathies for showing the cruelties in it to the people!) Am I remembering right?
