Heather Mills Wants Anti-Veg Gordon Ramsay On Disability Show

National Television Awards 2010 - Arrivals

Heather Mills may have been booted from Dancing On Ice, but her reality TV career is far from over.

The vegan chef and entrepreneur has announced she’d like a reality TV show where celebrities experience living with disabilities, according to The Telegraph.

And she already has one person in mind for the cast lineup–the famous “There’s no bigger pain in the world than a vegetarian” Gordon Ramsay.

“If it’s Gordon Ramsay, shove him in a kitchen and see if he can cook for the restaurant if he’s blindfolded, and have him live like that for a week,” Heather said.

Oh, no. Hope Gordon doesn’t catch on fire cooking any numerous animals like chicken, lamb or even puffin.

Better yet, blindfold Gordon, make him cook for a week, then feed him fake versions of real meat to see if he notices a difference.

Once he’s exposed on television for loving the taste of faux chicken, beef and pork, he’ll be banned from making another rude, anti-vegetarian remark again.

Chrissie Hynde Vegiterranean Vegan Restaurant Review

Jennifer Swab, director of sustainability for the Sierra Club Green Home, took a trip to Chrissie Hynde‘s vegan Italian restaurant, The Vegiterranean.

As expected, reviews of the restaurant’s food were great.

“So how was my meal at VegiTERRANEAN? Spiced tomatoes and chick peas with baby arugula, tofu feta and crustini. Fresh tomato and artichoke bisque with fresh dill. For the main course, fresh whole wheat linguini carbonara with smoked “gardein” chicken, asparagus and leeks. “Gardein” is a type of garden grown protein, actually quite tasty and fulfilling in a tofu sort of way for us “gotta have meat” types. Prices are moderate, the food was fabulous — kudos to executive chef J. Scot Jones — but the service was on the uneven side at best. Let’s just say the kitchen operations could use a tune up.”

Uh-oh. Uneven service doesn’t sound like a total kitchen nightmare, but could operations behind the counter be in need of a little Gordon Ramsay foul mouthed pep talk?

Ramsay should visit anyway, and be forced to down some tofu as punishment for his dozens of snide anti-veg remarks.

Gordon Ramsay–“Gordon’s Great Escape” Insults

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, January 27th, 2010 in Chefs, Not So Vegetarian.

reality television

Gordon Ramsay‘s reality TV show that featured him touring India, Gordon’s Great Escape, was supposed to highlight Indian food while positively exposing the rich culture of the country.

But things took a negative turn when more than 100 viewers complained about Ramsay’s behavior from a recent episode of Great Escape, which featured him making fun of both Indian culture and vegetarian food.

The F Word and Hell’s Kitchen star met a chef who tried to teach him to cook vegetarian.

However, he failed to show respect for both Indian vegetarian food and culture.

Ramsay, who claimed he had never eaten a dish without meat said, “When I first saw him I thought he was Father Christmas. But I don’t dig all the stuff about the food. I respect carrots, fine, but they’re not living to keep us happy.”

One reader wrote in response to Gordon’s behavior on OneIndia.com:  “I thought Gordon’s Great Escape was offensive and disrespectful! The Father Christmas comment about the guru was uncalled for. His swearing was disgusting.”

Gordon Ramsay Says No Nut Roast–“Gordon’s Great Escape”

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, January 19th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Not So Vegetarian.

reality television

As previously reported, Gordon Ramsay took a tour of India last year to film his reality TV show, Gordon’s Great Escape.

Gordon’s Great Escape featured much vegetarian cooking and given the Hell’s Kitchen chef’s history of negative comments about the food, some wondered how Ramsay would react in the land of veggies and curry.

Apparently, some of the experiences weren’t stimulating enough.

“Lentils, pumpkins, I can’t get excited with seeds,” he said, according to the BBC Radio 1. “I don’t want to sit down and eat a nut roast. I need meat, fish and chicken.”

Sigh…Maybe the next veg escape will be more titillating.

Gordon Ramsay “Cookalong Live” Alyson Hannigan Cute-A-Tarian

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009 in Actresses, Food & Drink, Videos.

Alyson Hannigan was a guest on Gordon Ramsay‘s Cookalong Live show where she, LeAnn Rimes, Cedric the Entertainer and Ramsay made some really ugly steak.

But steak’s not cute, so Alyson will eat it.

“I don’t eat cute things,” Alyson says, when Ramsay asks her about vegetarianism around minute 4:18 in the video. “I’m a cute-a-tarian…Anything I want as a pet, I won’t eat it.”

Does Alyson even remember where steak comes from? Who wouldn’t want an adorable cow as an animal companion…as long as the landlord’s pet deposit wasn’t too high.

The How I Met Your Mother actress was a vegan before getting pregnant and experiencing strong cravings for meat.

Gordon Ramsay “Gordon’s Great Escape” India Tour Completed

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, December 7th, 2009 in Chefs, Food & Drink.

reality television

Gordon Ramsay has just completed his tour of India, where he filmed his reality TV series Gordon’s Great Escape.

As previously reported, Gordon’s Great Escape features Ramsay cooking and enjoying mostly vegetarian food in Indian culture.

Uh-oh.

The same Gordon Ramsay who joked about electrocuting his children on a fence if they turned vegetarian or dated one?

Yes, the same Gordon Ramsay who stated, “There’s no bigger pain anywhere in the world than a vegetarian.”

Ramsay is reportedly a fan of pescatarian Indian food-seafood curry.

Let’s hope the tour made him a lover of veggie samosas and lentil dhal too.

Gordon’s Great Escape will air on UK’s Channel 4 early next year.

Cat Cora Family Vegetarian Nights

Human Rights Campaign's Annual Gala - Arrivals

Celebrity Chef Cat Cora, unlike Gordon Ramsay, doesn’t feel vegetarians are a pain at all.

In fact, sometimes The Food Network Iron Chef star and her family even, gasp, joins them!

From afterellen.com:

My wife is a vegetarian, so I have to ask: Do you find it annoying to cook for vegetarians or do you approach it as an invigorating challenge?
CC: I find it a fun challenge. In the Cora family, there are nights when we go all veggie, it is cleansing. So, I appreciate where vegetarians are coming from.

Cat’s no stranger to vegetarian cooking.

If you remember, Cat joined forces with Morningstar Farms to teach families to prepare delicious, quick, and healthier meals into the diets.

She said of the partnership:

“Morningstar Farms and I have come up with some easy ways to make eating well more manageable for the home cook. I want families to understand that good food doesn’t require hours in the kitchen.”

Cat also catered the vegan dinner served during Nigel Barker‘s screening of A Sealed Fate.

So cool that Cat practices what she preaches!

Meatless Mouthful: Gordon Ramsay Says Vegetarians Biggest Pain

Gordon Ramsay has an orange looking tan as he arrives at BBC Radio Two - London

“There’s no bigger pain anywhere in the world than a vegetarian”

Gordon Ramsay, on a recent episode of Hell’s Kitchen where the contestants had to make vegetarian dishes for 80 school children.

Ramsay can’t make up his mind. First, he’d rather electrocute his kids than see them go veg. Then claims his beef (pun intended) was never with vegetarians, just the chefs who didn’t know how to cook for them. At present, vegetarians are pains in the arses. More updates to come.
