Anthony Bourdain

Gordon Ramsay joked he would put his kid on a fence and electrocute him if he went vegetarian. Now another celebrity chef with a taste for both fine food and foul mouth has shared how he would react if his daughter went meatless.

Anthony Bourdain told the Miami New Times he will cope with the situation by making her smell pork every day. Lovely.

“I’ll say, “It’s a phase! It’s a phase!” I will live with it. I will love my daughter. But I will cook bacon around her every day.”

Bourdain had better get ready to grab the faux ham instead, because according to the LA Times, his daughter is a good candidate for going veg 10 years from now.

1 in 200 Kids Vegetarian: Celebrity Tots Included

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, January 26th, 2009 in Female Singers, Models, Research + Science.

Heather Mills donates one million dollars in food to up the nutritional standards of the children in Hunts Point in the Bronx

A recent study has estimated that 1 in 200 children are vegetarians. The kid who brings the tofu sandwich that no one wants to trade with is getting company and there’s a good chance he’ll have someone to swap for seitan at school.

There are many children of celebrities who have made news because of their diet, or perhaps more so because of their parents strongly insisting on their vegetarian diet.

Heather Mills made headlines last year when she reportedly gave an eight page letter of requirements for her daughter Bea’s food regime while vacationing with ex Paul McCartney.

Mills’ strong spirit to instill the veg lifestyle in her own child has been extended to her helping other children, donating time and money to impoverished kids and their families, helping them access and learn to cook meatless dishes.

Madonna put it in writing as well, but legally, when she required ex husband Guy to only serve the children organic, macrobiotic vegan food.

With news such as the U.S. Government’s estimate and high profile celebrities making their children’s diet public, more parents may consider sending more carrots and yogurt to school with their child, versus a Lunchable and fruit roll ups.
