Thanks for watching!

I dislike Jamie Oliver, but what really did my head in was when the only mcdonalds in an airport i went to a few years ago was replaced by one of his burger places. I don't mind switching to a better burger, but when you're a broke student on a tight budget trying to get anything to eat on the way back from your only getaway, it's a kick in the teeth to find out your 2 quid burger is now about 16 quid.

Ended up getting food from a Japanese place instead and it was delicious

"A sex symbol for post menopausal women" Brutal. I would share this with my mum if she wouldn't die at the insult

[MK-wesw]

😂😂 the kids humbled him when he showed them the how a nugget is made and they still chose to eat it. Since the dawn of man people have used "scraps" to make other things. I find it hard to reconcile that a chef would not recognize that.

I feel that the final nail in the coffin is uncle roger. A bunch of people now know him as the guy who fucks up asian food

[iamabread]

Plus Uncle Roger really made people think about Jamie Oliver cooking. Like I was watched Jamie Oliver shows before and never thought about how good a cook he is. But then he started to cook Asian food, I'm half Filipino, Half Japanese, and my grandparents one came from Thailand and one from china. So yeah it was horrific when I watch him cooked like I get that he want to make the recipe more easier to get for Europeans but goddamnit that was hard to watch. Specially when he crushed the tofu instead of cutting it.

Gordon Ramsey is a chef, Jamie Oliver is a celebrity cook.

[exxplosion]

Jamie's bullshit affected Ireland as well and I think I have more of a problem with fizzy drinks now as an adult than I did before

[snowbeast]

In the school dinner show, Jamie learned early on that the problem was a lack of budget, but he still blamed the dinner ladies, parents, and students.

[WhipLashJimmyFrank]

Also Ramsey is not a pretentious arsehole who thinks he’s above his station by dictating to children what to eat.

[txm]

How are u introducing a tax that targets the lowest earning people😂 and telling em to spend more on cooking

"Chicken nuggets made out of the bits you don't like such as bone, marrow, connective tissue": there's nothing unhealthy about any part of an animal. What's unhealthy are the preservatives, colouring and artificial additives. There are plenty of cultures around the world that use every part of the animal and have done so for thousands of years and who only began to become inflicted with diseases more common in western countries when they switched to a modern processed diet.

[se]

Gordon can be a bit of a twat but Oliver made it so that a whole generation of kids don’t know about traditional puddings. Unforgivable!

[Munjab]

It was filled with good intentions, but in reality we ended up with just really bland 'conventional' healthy food, that led to people buying loads of sweets with their lunch money instead lol

Great vid btw

I remember in my school a slice of pizza was 90p and it was all my mum could afford, she gave me £1.10 everyday for food so 90p for pizza and 20p for toast in the morning. The pizza was scrapped and the cheapest thing on the menu was pasta at 2.20 and I didn’t want to ask my mum for more money because I knew she couldn’t afford it so I just didn’t eat lunch at school. Jamie wouldn’t make healthy school meals off his own back without making some sort of profit: benefit out of what he done.

[kidkieran]

I also dislike Jamie Oliver but the man's banned made me good cash in the mid 00s. I was raking £60-70 a week selling fizzy drink. That with my paper rounds was getting me up to £100 a week sometimes. I seriously had more disposable money at age 14 until I was like 26.

[abronanimation]

that clip with the school kids raising their hands kills me. he really thought he'd done something there. i'll never get what's so wrong with using parts of an animal that would otherwise be wasted to make an inexpensive, tasty food item that kids enjoy. yeah, chicken nuggets definitely shouldn't be the only thing they eat, but it's still just food. maybe work on eliminating food deserts and expanding nutritious foods just as an option for kids to try than moralizing and restrictively managing the nutritional choices of freaking babies

[notam]

I grew up on Jamie Oliver meals and I can say a good 90% of the recipes we're either overpriced, downright horrible, or required tools and ingredients an average family could not get easily

[LaughingAndy]

It’s easy for Jamie to lecture people on the food they eat when you can spend a lot of money per head on the food. His restaurants and the recipes in his books are notoriously expensive. For context I’ve worked in industrial catering for thirty plus years. That’s the kind of cooking that’s done in workplace canteens, hospitals and schools. The amount that is spent per head for three meals a day in a hospital wouldn’t buy you a drink in one of his places.

It’s easy to spend a lot of money to buy good quality ingredients when your a multi millionaire.

[bronzebackbassing]

another issue with Jamie Oliver is the fact that he isn't even a professional chef. At the end of the day, Gordon Ramsay has several successful restaurants spanning multiple continents, Jamie is a tv cook, and nothing more. Oh and also Jamie's comment about Ramsay after Ramsay's wife had a miscarriage its quite disgusting. if you want comedic takedowns of Jamie Oliver, I do recommend you watch Uncle Roger

I was part of the generation that's school meals where ruined by Oliver. Because of him my primary school took away tomatoe sauce, Thursday launch was the worst because it was a burger with mash potatoes and peas. No sauce at all just bland food
