Gordon Ramsey Fans Reveal The Foods They Wish He Could Make Illegal
Gordon Ramsey Fans Reveal The Foods They Wish He Could Make Illegal
[rebelmouse-image 18350345 is_animated_gif=If Gordon Ramsey wins the 2020 presidential elections, pineapple on pizza will surely be deemed illegal. If you have ever watched him on TV, Ramsey has a thing for Lamb Sauce, and it better be on time and in abundance! These are just a few examples of food items and circumstances surrounding food that would just not fly if Gordon Ramsey was POTUS, in fact they would be illegal! This got people wondering what other food legislation he would have in store for us if he had his way.
Reddit user Snow776 asks,
This should be interesting!
Who likes garnishes anyway?
[rebelmouse-image 18350346 is_animated_gif=Inedible garnish is now considered a crime akin to assault.
Arguably the single most important skill in cooking
[rebelmouse-image 18350347 is_animated_gif=Egg cooking would be taught from kindergarten till middle school and intermittently tested on until you graduate.
You should not feel lost trying to order your dinner.
[rebelmouse-image 18350348 is_animated_gif=Any menu over 4 pages will be declared illegal.
It's important to stay authentic
[rebelmouse-image 18350349 is_animated_gif=It becomes illegal to call it shepherds pie if it's made with beef instead of lamb.
It must be done correctly!
[rebelmouse-image 18350350 is_animated_gif=Any type of meat that is frozen and then quickly warmed up is punishable by death.
No more corners will be cut
[rebelmouse-image 18350351 is_animated_gif=Microwaves are now illegal in restaurants.
An abundance of sauce, particularly of the lamb kind
[rebelmouse-image 18350352 is_animated_gif=Lamb sauce fountains on every street corner
No matter what the new law is, we have got to keep it fair
[rebelmouse-image 18350353 is_animated_gif=Any restaurant serving heavily fried food while be invaded for their oil reserves.
How much char do you want on the steak?
[rebelmouse-image 18350354 is_animated_gif=Well-done steak is now a federal offence.
Public humiliation for chefs who don't know their basics
[rebelmouse-image 18347243 is_animated_gif=Every single restaurant must serve beef wellington and Risotto, if either is undercooked the chef has to personally bend over your table and take a spanking.
That one time when you took the chicken out of the oven early and it sent you to jail
[rebelmouse-image 18350355 is_animated_gif=Serving raw chicken is an automatic establishment closure and 5y in jail
things might get a little more serious with the outdated grade sign on the window.
[rebelmouse-image 18350356 is_animated_gif=Restaurant health standards will sky rocket, and grade F will stand for Federal offence. There will be an official way to cook a steak. There is now a black market for ketchup.
Wait, that's legal? *gasp*
[rebelmouse-image 18350357 is_animated_gif=My dad is thrown in jail for his crimes against food
Eating a hot dog bun with only barbecue sauce on it. Putting jalapeños in his brown beans. Putting warm milk on his cereal (and then letting it soak and get all soggy). Eating uncooked noodles, or over cooking them on purpose. Dips bananas in hot sauce
The man is practically a felon
Closed-mindedness never got anyone anywhere, but they do have a point
[rebelmouse-image 18350358 is_animated_gif=Deconstructed food and hipsters aren't allowed on the restaurant premises.
Violence is never the answer, but again it's a good point
[rebelmouse-image 18350360 is_animated_gif=If it's not served on a plate, the chef gets beaten in the face with what ever ridiculous thing they served it on instead.
Food fixes everything, right?
[rebelmouse-image 18350361 is_animated_gif=All worlds disputes will be solved by cooking competitions
With all this legislative power, we could make so much free to everyone
[rebelmouse-image 18350362 is_animated_gif=Sonic Cherry Limeades are now FREE
We should also reconsider how we see our food
[rebelmouse-image 18350363 is_animated_gif=Tacos are considered sandwiches.
Less processed foods would be a truly great adaptation for all of us
[rebelmouse-image 18350364 is_animated_gif=If the President somehow did Congress's job without their interference or involvement? Well, first off, Ramsey'd probably be using the Food and Drug Act to create a standard for pizza that excludes pineapple as a topping. Digging into that, he'd figure out how totally f* that decrepit law is, and he'd probably re-focus on sorting it out a bit, especially advertising around food and the definitions themselves. I would imagine he would push the food clauses far away from processed foods. He's a problem-solver by nature and I just don't think he could dig into that legislation without wanting to improve it as a whole.
These are probably the top two things Gordon Ramsey would deem felonies
[rebelmouse-image 18350365 is_animated_gif=I would join the pineapple pizza resistance.
Runny scrambled eggs are now a felony.
Scientists Have Developed A New 'Planetary Health Diet' That Could Literally Save Lives And The Planet At The Same Time
In an attempt to help curb worldwide issues such as climate change, and malnutrition in poverty stricken areas, a joint commission by EAT, a non-profit seeking to transform the global food system, and The Lancet, an old and respected medical journal, has released a recommended guideline for dietary and planetary health.
The report recommends cutting back meat consumption to at most, a burger patty or equivalent a week, and supplementing your protein intake with nuts, legumes, and beans. An increase in veggies and fruits would make up the bulk of your meal plate.
The dietary guideline was established by a coalition of over 30 scientists, researchers, and doctors designed not just with human nutrition in mind, but also sustainability. With estimations that the planet will reach 10 billion people by 2050, scientists are working to figure out how to feed them all.
Additionally, the red meat industry has for a long time, been known to be a contributor to greenhouse gasses, while land conversion for food production is the greatest factor in biodiversity loss. The report from the EAT-Lance commission estimates that through nutrition and agricultural changes from this diet, we can save 11 million lives every year.
That sounds pretty great.
The EAT-Lancet commission lists very specific macronutrient ranges for their proposed diet, from 300g of veggies per day, to only 7g for red meats. However, it's this specificity that is drawing criticism.
John Ioannidis, the chair of disease prevention at Stanford university has praised the growing attention to how diets can affect the environment, but states the commission doesn't represent the scientific uncertainty between health and nutrition.
Dr. Georgia Ede, who writes for the site Diagnosis: Diet, took issue with the report's specific recommendations. Dr. Ede's website makes the case for low carb and paleolithic diets.
She points out the commission says,
"We have a high level of scientific certainty about the overall direction and magnitude of associations described in this Commission, although considerable uncertainty exists around detailed quantifications."
And yet, they recommend 0 to 58g per day of poultry, with a 29g midpoint. This seems very specific.
People are not willing to give up meat so easily.
Still, the report is a good starting point for the discussion we need to have about food's connection to not just our health, but the planet's well-being.
As Dr. Howard Frumklin, head of the Wellcome Trust which helped found the EAT foundation says himself,
"The links among diet, health and the environment are well-documented, but, until now, the challenge of attaining healthy diets from a sustainable food system has been hampered by a lack of science-based guidelines.
"While this report does not have all the answers, it provides governments, producers and individuals with an evidence-based starting point to work together to transform our food systems and cultures."
What should be a discussion is turning into an argument.
If we're going to be able to feed everyone, ensure their diet is nutritionally balanced, and try to curb climate change, it's important that people start talking about the positives and negatives of their current diet. The report provides a sense of context to which people can compare and share their ideas and study.
'Captain Marvel' May Have Just Introduced A New Black Female Superhero Right Under Our Noses
Warning: Minor spoilers ahead.
Nothing is a coincidence in the complex Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Now that Marvel Studios and Disney finally gave a female superhero her own movie, we realize Captain Marvel may have introduced a young character who takes on a more significant role in the future of the MCU.
The '90s-set origin story is led by the dual personalities of Carol Danvers — a U.S. Air Force pilot; and Vers, a Kree from the planet Hala in another life — and becomes Captain Marvel, expertly played by Brie Larson.
Without sounding too cryptic, Captain Marvel is the sum of Carol and Vers, and the complex narrative revolves around Vers finding out about her past.
Captain Marvel introduces us to a varied ensemble of personalities, including a young Nick Fury, played by Samuel L. Jackson, with whom she teams to fight off shape-shifting aliens called skrulls.
Instead of relying on a male love interest, Danvers has a best friend in Maria Rambeau, played by Lashana Lynch, giving the genre a refreshing feminist twist on the buddy action flick.
But it's Maria Rambeau's daughter Monica (Akira Akbar) who is making ardent fans giddy with anticipation about the character's future.
the future is beautiful and your name is monica rambeau https://t.co/HtNuXrWaZL— captain carol ︽✵︽ (@captain carol ︽✵︽) 1551819911.0
The precocious 11-year-old is, for all intents and purposes, just an adorable, "normal" kid who has ambitions of flying in the Air Force to emulate "Auntie Carol."
Monica's bravery belies her age as she encourages her mother to flee into space at the risk of never seeing her again for a mission involving the skrulls.
But there is more to her intelligence and inherent altruism, and those familiar with the comics are aware of her exciting destiny.
Refinery 29 revealed that the adult Monica Rambeau is just another iteration of Captain Marvel, and she is expected to come into prominence during the supposed 24-year time gap between Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame.
T'Challa is in the MCU Carol Danvers is in the MCU Monica Rambeau is in the MCU Y'all we are so close! https://t.co/rilnRAoErT— Raymond X (@Raymond X) 1552076618.0
Monica's origin story includes being a lieutenant in the New Orleans harbor patrol who comes into contact with "extra-dimensional energy" while preventing the creation of a powerful weapon.
As a result, she is able to manipulate, absorb and create energy.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Monica is the second of six characters to take on the name of Captain Marvel and becomes the leader of the Avengers. She eventually adopts the codenames: Photon, Pulsar and in 2013, Spectrum.

People Are Roasting Trump Over His Mind-Numbing Observation About The Wetness Of Water 😂
Donald Trump thanked the first responders who came to the aid of victims of Hurricane Florence. The storm devastated portions of North Carolina, dumping massive amounts of rain and damaging millions of dollars in property. Many natural areas were destroyed, some farmers lost everything and more than a few people have been left homeless. The first responders after this massive storm were literal life savers, and Trump was absolutely right to thank them. Unfortunately, the sentiment of his message was lost for many people because he didn't seem to put any effort or preparation into what he was saying. Then, in the middle of his off-the-cuff message, he confused everyone by talking about the wetness of water.
As Trump described the storm and the importance of first responders he told the world:
This is a tough hurricane, one of the wettest we've ever seen from the standpoint of water. Rarely have we had an experience like it and it certainly is not good.
The Tweet went out in the middle of the day on Tuesday, September 18th. At the time of this article, it hasn't even been up for 24 hours and already has over 13,000 comments. Many of them pointed out how Trump didn't even seem to try...
and how asinine his description was.
We don't know if Trump will continue to address the public by releasing these kinds of videos, or if they will continue to be as unrehearsed as this one is. We assure you, if they are, Twitter will have plenty to say about it.

Time-Lapse Video Shows What A Rocket Launch Looks Like From Outer Space—And It's Dazzling 😮
We've all seen videos of rockets launching from the ground, but what does the event look like from space?
European Astronaut Alexander Gerst, on board the International Space Station, managed to capture time-lapse footage of the Russian Progress MS-10 cargo spacecraft flying through Earth's atmosphere on its way to delivering supplies to ISS.
Very few people will ever have the chance to see an event like this in person.

Gerst created the video by setting up a camera to take regular photos through the wrap-around Cupola window of the station, which resulted in a video roughly 16 times faster than real life. Watching the rocket launch in person took 16 minutes but, in Gerst's video, the launch, stage one re-entry, and escape from the atmosphere all occur within one minute.
@_TheSeaning @Space_Station That's awesome!— Scott Waby (@Scott Waby) 1542898886.0
The rocket in the video, known as Progress 71, was on its way to delivering 5,652 pounds of supplies to ISS. The next flight, pushed back to December 3 after a sensor malfunction resulted in the cancellation of an October 11 liftoff, will bring replacement personnel for NASA astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor and Russian cosmonaut Sergey Prokopyev.
