For those of you following the Gordon Ramsay and Chris Hutcheson drama-rama, reports are coming out of the U.K. that Gordo just consolidated his power on his empire, which is run by Gordon Ramsay Holdings. Gordo now controls a 69 percent share of the biz, but Hutcheson (who is also the chef’s father-in-law) still owns a stake and is suing Ramsay for £2 million.

You have blood on your hands when you eat vegetarian.

– Blue Hill chef Dan Barber argues against strict vegetarianism, especially in the Northeast, where the ecological conditions call for eating a lot of meat. He thinks that vegetarians don’t “live on this higher plane of ethics,” since getting them fresh produce year round burns a lot of fossil fuels and negatively impacts natural living systems.
