What do Rihanna, Lupe Fiasco, Zac Efron, Robert Pattinson, and Miley Cyrus have in common? They've all been caught rocking Converse Chuck Taylors.

Many a vegan's wardrobe wouldn't be complete without at least one pair of Chucks. Their classic style, comfort, and the fact that most are leather-free (check the label!), make them a fashion staple. I, personally, wear my black low-tops into the ground.

As a big fan myself, I'm happy to announce that this week's Free Stuff Friday is to win a pair of Chuck Taylor All Star Hip Hop Graffiti Tags high-tops.

For a chance to win, comment below with a snappy comeback to the question vegans hear all the time, "Are your shoes made of leather?". We will pick the cleverest comment as the winner by May 29th, and the winner will be notified by June 5th.

If there's one thing I like, it's a guy who knows how to work a microwave. That might sound weird, but hear me out. For the past many months, my friend Starza and I have been working hard to bring you PETA's Vegan College Cookbook: 275 Easy, Cheap, and Delicious Recipes to Keep You Vegan at School. Here's the really exciting part: The most complicated cooking contraption you'll need for these recipes is a microwave!

WTF does this all have to do with Twilight heartthrob Robert Pattinson? Well, as it turns out, the lovely Mr. Pattinson loves microwaves too. According to an interview with Pattinson in the April issue of GQ, "He explains that the place he's staying at in L.A. has a microwave, and that he's never had a microwave before, and that he spends a lot of time looking for new things you can microwave." Including a carrot! Talk about a match made in heaven (meaning Pattinson and the cookbook, not him and me, although now that I think about it ... ).

Anyway, I can't imagine a more perfect gift for him right now than PETA's Vegan College Cookbook, which is exactly why we sent one his way today. After all, the cookbook is perfect for any busy person—whether you're a college student or a movie star. Wouldn't it be awesome if he realized how easy it is to be vegetarian and gave up the flesh?

Now, the cookbook doesn't come out until May, but here's a sneak peek at a recipe you can sink your teeth into right now!

Campus Streaker Sausage Dip

Great for when you're on the run. Guaranteed to turn any party into a sausage fest.

1 (14-ounce) tube vegan sausage
2 (10-ounce) containers of vegan cream cheese, room temperature
1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes with mild green chilies, undrained

Crumble the sausage as best you can and stir it into the cream cheese and tomatoes until evenly blended. Heat in the microwave for 3 minutes, or until hot. Serve with tortilla chips.

Makes 8 servings.

So, are you as excited about the cookbook as I am?!
