It came after somebody wrote to the chef on Twitter to ask for his thoughts on their vegan lasagne.
He replied claiming to be a member of PETA, or "people eating tasty animals" as he put it.

The organisation replied: "Oh, dear, Gordon. We've heard that old line before. While you're spending time mocking the future #vegan we're betting you one day become, most chefs are exploring healthy, animal- & environment-friendly #PlantBased dishes. A real "hell's kitchen" is full of corpses & secretions from artificially inseminated, castrated, & routinely abused animals. As Paul McCartney said, "If slaughterhouses had glass walls, everyone would be #vegetarian". https://twitter.com/peta/status/959503204261097473 "We recommend you make a reservation at Michelin-starred @PollenStSocial to savour its eight-course #vegan menu, which will open both your mouth and your mind to what you've been missing out on." This isn't the first time he's offended the veg-munching community. As Deadline News reported last year, he placed himself firmly on the vegan hate list by declaring that he was allergic to them. To be fair you can't imagine a meat-loving chef and an animal rights group are ever going to see eye to eye.Explore more on these topics:
