Wolfgang Puck Goes Vegan for the Oscars.…Oscar Nominated Jared Leto Celebrates with Vegan Pancakes!

The Oscar Awards this year will be as exciting as ever, but what excites me as much as drooling over the beautiful gowns and the excitement of cheering for my favorite movies is the news that Wolfgang Puck will be offeringwonderful vegan dishes on the menu of the Famed Governor’s Ball. According to Ecorazzi, Wolfgang Puck has made sure that everyone, including vegans and vegetarians, will have delicious food to eat. 

“Wolfgang Puck said about the magnificent feast he planned, ‘We have risotto with black truffles. We have some great pasta dishes; some wonderful rice noodles like some Chinese style rice noodles with vegetables for the vegan people; for the vegetarian people so there will be something FOR everybody.’ ” 

This will be the 20th year in a row that Puck is cooking for this massive event. To read all about how sumptuous vegan food has made appearances on Oscar night, click on this link.

Jared Leto, up for Best Supporting Role in “Dallas Buyers Club,”is possibly this year’s most vocal vegan—he told the Hollywood Reporter that he celebrated his nomination by “making some vegan pancakes.” He told British GQ Magazine last year that he’s been vegan/vegetarian for 20 years and attributes his diet for one of the reasons he’s stays so young looking and young feeling. Apparently these vegan pancakes are quite infamous in their own right. Check out the funny video of Jared, and members from his band Thirty Seconds to Mars, demonstrating his vegan pancakes by clicking on this link.
