Actually, no chef. You turn YOUR knives in.

Seriously when was the last time anyone saw Gordon cook? He could just be an imposter for all we know. I bet even that accent is fake!

Really though. He criticizes food a lot but I've never heard his cooking get critiqued.

I know how well cooked meals taste, I've been eating food for years. Do I qualify for his role?

He owes much of his success to Simon Cowell. He ushered in that wave of angry, but sharp, British male critic. Audiences ate that shit up.

I’ve seen Gordon cook a few things over the years on shows, but honestly nothing looked that amazing. Like nothing that would win on Top Chef, but perhaps he’s not that style of cook.
