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 jalapeΓ±os 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.
People Are Roasting Trump Over His Mind-Numbing Observation About The Wetness Of Water π
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.
AsΒ 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.

Disheartened Young Boy Calls 911 To Ask For Homework Help, And The Dispatcher Doesn't Miss A Beat β€οΈ
When you're a kid stuck on a really difficult math problem, what can you do? It's not like you can dial 9-1-1 and get help, right?

While it's not an endorsed solution, an Indiana boy did just that. On January 14th, he called emergency services due to difficulty with his homework.
The call was answered by Antonia Bundy, a dispatcher with Lafayette Police. Despite the situation being a little less dire than their typical call, Bundy assisted the boy.
The boy starts off the call explaining he "had a really bad day" because of his homework. Bundy asks about the subject he's having difficulty with. As she works through the problem with the boy, Bundy is very patient, not giving him the answer, but instead helping him come to it himself.
It's a really sweet clip to hear.

Again, the department's statement on the situation stresses that 911 services are not for homework help. However, at the time the call was taken, the queue was sparse, and Bundy could see if anyone was on hold. She'd have been ready to help anyone else who called if necessary.
"She's very much a dedicated employee, it doesn't surprise us that she goes above and beyond on a regular basis,"
Said Sergeant Matt Gard of the Lafayette Police.
"They do receive some oddball requests, but this situation of calling asking for homework help β I've been in law enforcement for 13 years and I don't know I've ever heard of this happening."
Bundy most certainly stepped up!

At the end of the call, the boy apologizes for calling saying he "really needed help."
While Sgt. Gard is happy that Bundy was able to help and brighten this boy's day, he does want to stress the importance of when to call emergency services. Maybe the school can educate the kids on local homework help lines instead?
Kenan Thompson Just Hit The Ice With Other 'Mighty Ducks' Cast Members, And The Nostalgia Is Real Y'all π
A mini-reunion took place over the weekend, as actors from the Mighty Ducks film series met up at an ice rink in upstate New York. Afterwards, they attended an Anaheim Duck's game.
The nostalgia-fest started with Danny Tamberelli, who played Tommy Duncan in the first film, posting photos of the group to his Instagram.
They wore recreations of the bright green jerseys the team wore in the movie.
Watching them, you can almost hear the whine of your old VHS player.

He was joined by Kenan Thompson, Vincent LaRusso, Colombe Jacobsen-Derstine, and Garette Ratliff Henson. All five acted in at least one of the Mighty Ducks movies.
After the fun of skating around the ice rink, the group switched jerseys to the more modern Anaheim Ducks design. They wore personalized jerseys with the names of their characters on the back.
The Anaheim Ducks account posted about it on Twitter.

The group got to watch a game the actual sports team started because of the popularity of their movie, played on Sunday against the New York Islanders.
The original film starred Emilio Estevez as Gordon Bombay, a lawyer charged with drunk driving, who has to perform 500 hours of community service. Because of his background as a child hockey star, Bombay is ordered to coach a peewee hockey team. While initially reluctant, he guides the misfits to victory.
Danny Tamberelli, Garette Ratliff Henson, and Vincent LaRusso starred in the first film, while Kenan Thompson and Colombe Jaconsen-Derstine were in the second.
It's unknown at this time why the group reunited, though some are speculating for a Superbowl commercial.
But we have to ask the real questions here.
