OK let's taste... This cocaine is shit, Pablo! The gasoline is not completely evaporated and there's far too much powder milk cut into it!

Let's see your lab! Come on! Oh my God I can't believe it. Open this barrel, open it now!

[–] Event_Horizon@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

THIS COCA IS FUCKIN RAW!!!

[–] celia@lemmy.today 5 points 1 day ago

YOU PLUCKED THE WRONG FUCKING COCA LEAVES, YOU NEED TO PLUCK THE MORE QUALITY LEAVES!

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I suspect we've seen that without even knowing.

All TV chefs seem to have coke energy.

And most other chefs, probably.

The restaurant business is pretty damn high energy and demanding and by the time they make it to chef, they'll be earning enough to afford a whole bunch of nose candy 🤷🏻

Gordon Ramsay on cocaine is every other show he's ever done.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Would explain why they chose him to host the show tbh 🤷🏻

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Subject expert.

[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Im yet to.see a clean great chef. They get too tired. I like my chefs full of cocaine

[–] FE80@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Why can't AI do something cool and fabricate the hypothetical gonzo "Gordon Ramsey on Cocaine" show that we all want to see?

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Cocaine is always in the kitchen (staff).

[–] Abyssian@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Yeah, If you've watched any of Gordon Ramsay's shows you've probably seen Gordon Ramsay on cocaine. Always energetic, easily angered... hmmmm.

[–] Earthwormjim91@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He quite famously is very anti-drug due to his brother being a heroin addict, his father dying from alcohol abuse, and another very close friend dying of an overdose.

That was part of the inspiration for this show. The rampant cocaine usage in the kitchen industry, and his personal experiences with addicts.

[–] Abyssian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Lindsay Graham was famously very anti-gay, but he still took it in the ass.

[–] Earthwormjim91@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I could see Gordon being more unmedicated ADHD because of his stance on drugs.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 1 points 1 day ago

Restaurant work is grueling. Been there, glad my kid chose another (also but not as) grueling track.

[–] fyzzlefry@retrolemmy.com 40 points 2 days ago (2 children)

That guy is so amped all the time, not sure id notice the difference.

[–] cynar@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He hosted a kids cooking competition show once. Watching him get down on a panicking 12 year old's level and rebuild their confidence was heartwarming. He also did a cooking show with his own kids. They took full advantage to sass the hell out of him.

He only lays into someone with both barrels if they call themselves a "professional" then act like an idiot. He also hams it up for the American shows.

[–] evadersnack@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

American Kitchen Nightmares is unwatchable but the UK one is quite funny.

Partly also due to weird censorship rules and sycophancy.

[–] StillAlive@piefed.world 12 points 2 days ago

I've heard that his persona on American shows is very different from his UK shows.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 38 points 2 days ago (2 children)

You've heard of Cocaine Bear, now get ready for Cocaine Chef!

[–] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 58 points 2 days ago

That's just a regular chef

[–] ajoebyanyothername@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

We've come full circle.

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Richie said no cocaine.

I have a joint in the car.

Now that's what I'm talking about!

It sends a wrong impression because the show is 100% not entirely about that (it might be a little bit about that, but also about all the different ways obsessions and insecurities kill ambitions), but that one scene was so weird and funny in an awkward out of place but somehow not surprising kind of way.

[–] Eh_I@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

You think beef wellington built this house?

[–] WhosMansIsThis@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

I was gunna say, you ever seen this man make chicken stock??? No way hes not on cocaine. This is a normal day for him. Gobless.

[–] osanna@lemmy.vg 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

so that explains why he's wired all the time.

[–] Slovene85@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Can you use cocaine as a gravy thickener?

Only one way to find out!

[–] Wren@lemmy.today 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No. It's not great for flavour, either. It's better as a digestif so it doesn't ruin the palate, and because it's often cut with baby laxatives.

[–] Slovene85@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago

Thank you for doing the science for us. O7

[–] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

I watched part of that, or at least a different cocaine series he did, and it's actually pretty interesting.

[–] el3ctron@lemmy.today 1 points 1 day ago

we all know he is always on cocaine.

[–] Velypso@sh.itjust.works -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Gordon Ramsay is a piece of shit, fuck that guy.

[–] caurvo@aussie.zone 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Can you point me in the direction of any reading I can do on this? I was under the impression he was OK. But I'm willing to change my view if there is a legitimate cause.

[–] Zizzy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Hes an asshole. Piece of shit is accurate but it also in our currenty day conjures ideas and feelings of the vilest things, but hes not a pedophile or something.

Gordon admits to framing his mentor over a theft:

https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2007/mar/26/foodanddrink.travelnews

Hes also been accused of sexism, physical abuse of his staff, and the constant humiliation and verbal abuse is not a reality tv gimmick (would argue its still not ok there anyways)

These sources i grabbed wuickly at work but they should give you an idea. Ive watched a lot of his shows when i was younger. Im nit going to deny theyre entertaining. But fuck him as a person.

[–] caurvo@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

Thanks for this. I agree with you about the vast scale of "piece of shit" as an adjective for "he was a bully in high school" to "Epstein," which is why I wanted to check I hadn't missed anything.
