Super chef Gordon Ramsay has admitted that he goes to fast food places like Burger King and McDonald's and orders food at the drive-thru...in secret. He goes in a car with tinted windows and calls ahead. Though I wonder who but a celeb would call ahead for a meal at Burger King or McDonald's.
He says that "there's something very sexy about the way they flame grill a Whopper." Um, alllllrighty.
But he's really not a fan of fast food establishments. He says the food is bland and that it's bad for you. Another famous chef, Marco Pierre White, recently said that McDonald's offers great value and Ramsay calls that "utter crap."
The new season of Hell's Kitchen premieres this Monday on FOX.

ok, I wasn't going to comment, but no one else has. We all like fast food, even though we all hate it. So this isn't shocking.
Marco is just a pansy and is upset because his apprentice is far more famous, and a far better chef than he is. Whilst Marco has gone down, Gordan continues to rise, even in the face of cow manure, and dead turkey, pig, and now lamb. mmmm...lamb. Ramsay is also opening a restaurant with Posh and Becks.
Meanwhile, Marco is trying to sue Ramsay because of some crime Ramsay may or may not have committed, though he did reveal that he did it. heh.
Anyway, if you've ever eaten at a Ramsay restaurant, you'll know what I mean when I say that the man can cook better than anyone in the world. The best dinners I've ever had have been at Ramsay's locations.

Not really a big issue, but surely he's actually talking about Burger King, since the Whooper is on their menu, not McDonalds, but why would I expect thorough reporting from The Sun anyway!
