Anthony Bourdain Tells What Vegetarians Should Expect At Show
Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, April 19th, 2010 in Animal Issues, Chefs, Not So Vegetarian.
If you go to a live Anthony Bourdain show, don’t expect to see tofu being sauteed.
And don’t be afraid to be the butt of a joke.
The chef who once said it wasn’t polite to eat vegetarian when traveling and that “vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter faction, the vegans, are a persistent irritant to any chef worth a damn” wasn’t throwing compliments to meatless eaters when he spoke to syracuse.com.
“I’m making some vegetarian jokes, that’s for sure. … I’m genuinely angered at the idea of vegetarian traveling — that’s the crux of my discomfort with vegetarians.”
But he did say he’ll have a conversation with some of them.
How thoughtful.
“I’m comfortable having conversations with vegetarians. There are vegetarians I can talk to.”
For example, Bourdain wants you to talk about killing animals for food cause he’s bored to death about being asked what’s the worst meal he’s ever eaten.
“I’d much rather have someone get in my face about animal rights than softball questions.”
Somebody’s gotta ask him why he ate chicken in India after meeting some and petting them.
