Eminem Serves Vegan Mom’s Spaghetti at Coachella

Rapper Marshall Mathers (known professionally as “Eminem”) sold vegan spaghetti and meatballs before headlining the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival Sunday. The emcee hosted a pop-up stand where he offered “mom’s spaghetti”—named after famous lyrics from his 2002 song “Lose Yourself.” The limited options included “Rabbit” vegan meatballs named after Eminem’s character in 2002 biographical film 8 Mile. This year’s Coachella festival featured several vegan vendors—thanks to culinary director/long-time vegan Nic Adler—including The Herbivorous Butcher, Little Pine, and Sage Plant-Based Bistro & Brewery. Furthermore, several non-vegan companies debuted vegan products at the festival, including Los Angeles chain Afters Ice Cream, which served a vegan version of its “milky buns”—chocolate ice cream sandwiched between two glazed doughnuts.
