Cranky chef Gordon Ramsay refuses to adapt his menus for diners on weight-loss drugs ― just $$@O#*@#!! ask him.
“That is absolute bullshit,” Ramsay told The Sunday Times. “There’s no fucking way we’re giving in to the Mounjaro jab … The problem is with [customers] for eating too much in the first fucking place! There’s no way that we’re coming in with an Ozempic tasting menu to make you feel like less of a fat fuck by 10:30 in the evening.”
But shaming the millions in the U.S. and U.K. who have taken Ozempic and other GLP-1 medications, which control blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes but also contribute to weight loss, could perhaps be a marketing mistake.
Ramsay previously opened up about his own war of the waistline. When his daughter Tilly was called “chubby” by a radio personality after she appeared on “Strictly Come Dancing” in 2021, Ramsay called it a “very sensitive issue.”
“I am someone who has always struggled with their weight,” he said on Instagram. “I have to train. We eat all day. I pick, we graze, we are around food 24/7. If we don’t train, I’d be 350-400 pounds — so all credit to her.”
