We were going to call this post “The Sausage Whore” (and Stella approved it) but I think “Stella Eats Meat” is more to the point. For you see Stella has been a vegetarian for twelve years. TWELVE. And last night at John’s Pizza on Bleecker (home of some of the city’s best pizza) I said to Stella, “If you eat a piece of sausage I’ll pay for your dinner.” I was joking. But Stella said, “Will you really?” and I said, “Sure.” I’m always happy to turn a vegetarian into a meat eater: I think we meat eating Jews would call that a mitzvah. What follows is video footage of Stella going face to face with pizza sausage in the hopes of a free meal:

Speaking of vegetarians, whatever happened to the other star of this website …. Lisa???
wow, that is awesome. somewhere, anthony bourdain is smiling.
Twelve years? Pah! How about twenty? Here’s where…
My comments wouldn’t post all day! :(
Anyway, I said, whoa… that’s crazy. It looks like she’s eating toast for dinner though- if so, you got off easy =P
I feel for Stella – I was a vegetarian for two years before I had to switch back to meat (I moved to Ecuador, its hard to stay veg in a country where most people barely get enough to eat) and that first bite of chicken was agonizing. I think its more mental, although I did get physically sick after I ate my first piece of red meat. To this day I cannot bring myself to eat a McDonald’s burger, which is probably a good thing.
Hard times for Stella?
Way to be, Stella!
It’s good for people to try things once in a while, no?
I was a vegetarian for 9 years, until I learned how to butcher and life working in a kitchen took over my thinking about actual meat.
I stand by it being good to broaden your horizons, even if just for once in a while! When I was a vegetarian I used to eat one bite of steak every year on my friend Kelly’s birthday just to make her flip out (tho she never taped it:)
What’s the big deal? All my dates eat meat and I pay for their dinner. Oh wait a minute, she is eating the meat from a pizza. Nevermind.
Don’t feel too bad, Stella. I was a strict lacto-ovo veggie person while I lived in Northern California. My downfall was my Grandma’s homemade pork red chile tamales while visiting with the familia at Christmas!
Makes me even more upset I couldn’t make it on Saturday! :(
You are such a corrupter! And Stella… selling out for a free meal?
Just kidding! I would probably do the same in the same situation. I hope it was an expensive dinner :)
Oh Stella, I would have paid for your meal without forcing you to eat meat. Adam, you should be ashamed.
Lame- you are evil;) NO- I would probably do it too. I am a vegan at home but if I am out or at someone else’s place, I might have some meat or something. 95% vegan is still pretty good. But next time take her out for something nice like a rare fillet mignon (the blood will add to the ick factor), not some crummy pizza sausage made of lord only knows what…
Once I played Asda Story, I did not know how to get strong, someone told me that you must have Asda Story gold.
