Galeongirl said:and I don't think they'd raise their kids as veggies too... I mean it's not that good for growing up to be a veggie..... so maybe Ali is the only one not eating meat, but the rest of the family does eat it?
LivLuvAndBootlegMusic said:There was a thread in EYKIW about Ali and Bono eating in a restaurant and they both had a meat dish.
Who really cares?
may I state that Foie Gras can be either duck or goose ^^ Foie gras de canard is duck, and the other one I always forget is the goose yes my father has a cook addiction... and he loves anything french... don't start about wine to him, I bet he and Bono could rant on for ages about wines... wait, that could be a very nice idea to get my parents to like them!partygirl43 said:I don't think this is true....there is a thread around here somewhere that mentioned Bono complementing a chef on his wonderful Fois Grois (Duck Liver Pate'). Def. not vegatarian.

ok enough nonsense from my side ...

I'm not sure that there's is anything to conclusively support Bono and/or Ali being vegetarian, but I know Bono's allergic to a lot of wines.
Galeongirl said:
yep, red wine makes him sleepy.. but still, he drinks it... and enjoys it so who's stopping him?
not me, say, what would you do if he'd ask you to drink a glass of red wine with him... say it's bad for you and thank him and walk away?? I dont think so...
LivLuvAndBootlegMusic said:
Red wine is good for you (well, a glass a day). Bono's allergic to it.
LivLuvAndBootlegMusic said:I know nothing of wine since I hate it so I wouldn't know. Perhaps Bono is allergic to ALL wine, but that has been misinterpreted b/c he may have said "no, I'm allergic" in a situation where he was offered red wine? I dunno, just going by what I've read in interviews. I've read/heard him mention the wine allergy a few times, but I've never seen/heard anything to suggest he or Ali is a vegetarian.
Galeongirl said:
I've seen it stated more than once that he is allergic to red wine... and also, the picture of him sleeping at the table, and a few other ones of him sleeping on a table or desk with his head... what's in the glass? exactly, red wine!
LivLuvAndBootlegMusic said:
Doesn't he have a worse reaction that sleepiness? Lots of people have that reaction from any kind of wine (my mom especially, one glass), but it seems like an allergy implies a more serious reaction.
I suppose if it's bad, he's not exactly going to drink it and find out!
At 1:30 a.m., exactly five hours after his bravura Super Bowl show, Bono is exercising the rock star's fundamental right to be ridiculous. At a celebratory post-game dinner in the French Quarter with his band mates, the U2 management team and actress Ashley Judd (an old friend), he throws back some red wine, tells a few stories about Frank Sinatra, leaves a rambling cell-phone message for Judd's husband gently informing him that his wife has been kidnapped by a rock band, and then sneaks off to the bathroom for a cigarette. (Bono thinks the rest of U2 doesn't know he smokes; they know.) After 15 minutes, guitarist the Edge, who adopts a kind, paternalistic role toward his childhood friend and band mate, glances toward the bathroom and says nervously, "Bono's allergic to red wine." Sure enough, Bono has passed out on the bathroom floor. U2's deputy manager, Sheila Roche, is unconcerned and continues sipping her drink. "He's probably just taking a nap. He's an excellent napper," she says.
A few minutes later, Bono emerges rumpled but renewed. As he exits the restaurant and makes his way through the mob on Bourbon Street, he throws his hands in the air and screams to no one in particular, "No, I will not do the snake dance for you!"
