Vegetarian Star

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.

PETA’s co-founder and President Ingrid Newkirk recently addressed an audience on vegetarianism while attending an environmental conference on economic sustainability in Mumbai.

Someone in the audience raised a hand and asked, “If I become a vegan, what can I eat?”

Here’s how Ingrid responded to the individual, from Huffingtonpost.com:

Being a lover of Indian food, I could only say this:

Papad, chapattis,

Dumplings and naan,

Channa and rotis,

Onion uttapam,

Masala dosa,

Green callaloo,

Gourd and samosa,

Corn and aloo.

Shalgam, bryani,

And channa masala,

Tomato soup…

A diet of Indian food is one of the best ways to remain vegetarian, as many of the dishes consist of lentil, grains and vegetables.

And if you’re not a master in the kitchen, there are even microwave versions of the ethic cuisine, such as any of the Amy’s entrees of Mattar Tofu or Vegetable Korma.

Not to mention how impressed your taste buds will be with the use of flavorful spices like curry.

A night with friends and family at the Indian restaurant buffet and you might find yourself unbuttoning your pants from too many samosas.

As Ingrid said in her article, “I think we’ll survive without milk and meat. In fact, it may be the only way to help the planet itself survive.”

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.
