Did you hear Gordon Ramsay FINALLY "GETS IT" and it's a win!

in #vegan5 years ago

It's no secret that Ramsay has been on the opposing, hot end of my lifestyle for quite some time.

One of the most notable chefs of this era, the popular, hot headed chef lashed out at the idea of plants taking the main stage on a plate however, he's recently changed his tune by adding vegan roasts and even Beyond Meat products into his own culinary creations!

Sharing articles for me usually lands in the realms of Twitter but in this case since I know most of my gang here is veg friendly, I thought you might get tickled pink when you read this article!

Despite your predisposition, upbringing, culture, tradition or preference, when you "get it", you REALLY GET IT and that's a profound moment for your health🏥, the environment♻️ and compassion towards the lives of sentient, conscious animals♥️🐮🐷🐥🐑.

Whether you start making more conscious buying decisions, partake in Paul McCartney's Meatless Monday trend, or even jump on board the 22 day challenge as promoted by Beyonce and Jay-Z, these steps are a monumental leap towards a new tomorrow.

I see it every day, in 100's of 1000's of people, as though a 💡 has switched on above their head when finally something clicks whether it be through a 🎥, a viral video, a friend surviving unimaginable health complications, an outstanding 📘 or even just the delicious possibilities on a 🍽️, they understand that actions have consequences and they CHOOSE to CHANGE THEIR LIVES! 💚🌱♻️🌈

The chef of Hell's Kitchen says "veganism is on the rise, so we have to adapt" while being interviewed on the Late, Late Show with James Corden.

Of course backlash was immediately sent flying through hyperspace at the well-meaning chef, but he's also gained new favor in an audience he was strictly villainized in prior.

Good on ya Ramsay, stand your ground. Haters gunna hate. I can't wait to try your vegan roast, it looks divine! Smell steps make big changes and I'm in full support of this change!

Here's the delish.com article for more info and video of the interview!

that is awesome news indeed!!!! I'm sure more and more people will "switch their light bulb on". Veganism is here to stay =)

Absolutely @evecab! You said it! It's just releasing the fear and generations of programming that we need to break through! Now that people are seeing that vegans are not dropping dead everywhere ;) They might be more inclined to skip their medication and try some plants instead <3

And we all thought Gordon was the uncrackable nut, right. While I'm tempted to go down the route that he is doing it now to be a part of the hype around veganism and not miss the train, as Gary Yourofsky has said, (I'm paraphrasing here) we need non-vegan businesses offering up vegan alternatives - and I think this includes people like Ramsay serving some vegan options in his restaurants among the rest of the animal flesh.

Thanks for sharing, Cece.

All the best,
Nick.

Hey Nick! Definitely! You know some hard core vegans won't shop or eat at places that are not strictly vegan/cruelty free and that's perfectly fine but the effectiveness comes from branching out to people in the yellow zone, the curious ones. By having vegan options at non-vegan businesses all you're going to ever do is reach a new audience so I suggest to every business I come across to throw some vegan options in and it's only going to do you good! I actually got my dad to make a vegan menu at his restaurant and he's be compared to Ramsay so, can be done ;) Thanks for stopping by Nick and I hope you go through with it <3

Haha. I've been vegan for about seven years, so I'm definitely going through with it. No vegan cheese back in 2012.. we've come a long way!

Incredible to hear your Dad's added some vegan options to his restaurant. What sort of cuisine does he serve?

thanks to share your valuable information.
