- [Narrator] Gordon Ramsay defends vegan food
and swore at Piers Morgan on live television
after he attacked the diet.
The celebrity made the comment in an interview
on the Late Late Show with James Corden in response
to Morgan's recent tweets that bashed Ramsay's vegan roast.
Ramsay posted on Twitter about adding a vegan roast
to Bread Street kitchen menus in London.
Alongside a video of the new dish he wrote:
it's happened, the vegan roast has landed.
The feud was sparked when Morgan tweeted back:
Oh, for (bleep) sake Ramsay, not you as well?
This looks utterly revolting.
This isn't the first time that Piers Morgan
took a stab at vegan food.
In January, he got shut down by Greggs
for hating on its popular vegan sausage roll.
In response to the product launch, Morgan tweeted:
Nobody was waiting for a vegan bloody sausage,
you PC-ravaged clowns.
But Greggs didn't miss a beat.
The chain cleverly responded:
Oh hello Piers, we've been expecting you.
The TV personality also appeared on Good Morning Britain
to taste test the sausage roll.
- Let me try one of these things, right.
These, I mean they look, are these, what are these?
The sausages or the vegan ones?
- It's the vegan one.
- Vegan one?
I mean, they stink, for one.
- They're delicious.
They're delicious, actually.
They've got the same seasoning.
- Ugh, God.
- I like them, they've got nice crisp pastry.
The vegetarian sausage is nicely flavored.
- [Narrator] He also grumbled about Veganuary.
The month long pledge to eat vegan in January.
- My one argument about Veganuary is that every month
now has to be something, right.
We're all getting terrorized
into you've gonna be dry in January, you gotta be vegan.
If you wanna do this, get on with it quietly,
do whatever you wanna do.
It's the tyranny that comes with it.
- [Narrator] Piers Morgan's distaste for vegan food
has become a bit of a joke.
After the Greggs comment,
Leeds coffee shop Temple Coffee and Donuts
launched a vegan donut with his angry face on it.
UK chocolate brand Mummy Meagz offered customers a discount
on products with discount code Piers Morgan
after he called their rocky road bar
tasteless and raw on TV.
The family run business is grateful for the slanderous
comments stating that Morgan's vendetta against vegans
are helping vegan businesses everywhere thrive.
Despite negative comments Ramsay has made
about veganism in the past.
- Truth, I have four children,
three girls and a boy, amazing.
- [Man] And you wouldn't allow them to be vegetarian?
- I'd pay them never to become a vegetarian.
- [Narrator] Ramsay believes that Morgan
should get with the times.
- The beet root wellington, that's right.
Roasted beet root.
Look at that.
- [Narrator] He told Corden,
so Piers Morgan is now a food critic?
Go and (bleep) yourself.
Veganism is on the rise.
We've got to adapt and eat a slice of humble pie.
Gordon Ramsay is setting an example for embracing
the growing vegan trend.
In addition to launching the vegan roast at his restaurant
in London, he also launched a roast revolution campaign
that includes a variety of vegan options.
Ramsay also introduced the bleeding vegan Impossible Burger
to his Bread Street kitchen restaurant in Singapore.
- [Narrator] The star has appeared in MasterChef
vegan cook off with vegan Riverdale star, Madelaine Petsch.
- [Ramsay] This is a vegan challenge.
- Vegan challenge.
- You just turned MasterChef into MasterVegan.
Are you ready?
- Yes.
- On your mark, get set.
- Oh my God, why am I doing this to myself?
- Go.
- [Narrator] That's it for today.
