Vegetarian Star

Vegetarian loathing Anthony Bourdain may have found plant-based mecca.

The chef and host of Parts Unknown traveled to Punjab, India for the show’s premiere and sampled fare that is considered standard for the majority of the population.

And much of it did not contain meat.

Anthony Bourdain took his CNN food show Parts Unknown to the Middle East to take part in the dishes that have made up the rich culture for centuries.

Bourdain made several stops in Israel and Palestine that had the usual vegan-hating chef sampling vegetarian dishes that made him forget he loved meat.

He spoke with food writer and cookbook author Yotam Ottolenghi about the origins of Middle Eastern falafel.

Anthony Bourdain has picked Playboy magazine to sound off his latest complaints about vegetarians and vegans.

Well, at least he’s still on our side when it comes to mass-produced food and factory farms.

He’s got choice words for both groups in between his love for sheep testicles, seal eyes and In-N-Out burgers.

On Vegetarians:
They make for bad travelers and bad guests. The notion that before you even set out to go to Thailand, you say, “I’m not interested,” or you’re unwilling to try things that people take so personally and are so proud of and so generous with, I don’t understand that, and I think it’s rude. You’re at Grandma’s house, you eat what Grandma serves you

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.
