Brace yourself because this is the incredibly lame sort of thing that can only happen on the internet.

I found it while trying to find out who actually posted the vegetable quiz’s by name instead of just email address so I could credit him.

I bring you the “Which celebrity chef are you?” quiz.

It’s a British quiz so a couple of the things are a little skewed towards their palate, but surprisingly what I eat when I’m cooking for myself really is shepherd’s pie.

I’m a bit embarrassed I bothered to take the quiz, but as the obvious comment would be “which one are you” if I didn’t, I am Jamie Oliver.

That makes me mildly uncomfortable, but when I really think about the food I cook at home, it’s probably pretty accurate.

Jamie Oliver Whacks Some Chickens

Seriously.

I was all geared up to make my own comment about this but I really don’t think I can top the first commenter who said this before getting into his slight save the animals tangent:

So, let’s get this clear: the presenter was trying to make a point to the general public.

The point was: animals should not be mistreated by humans.

He then demonstrates the cruelty on a defenseless animal.

It matters not a jot to the animal on the receiving end of the abuse whether the perpetrator was a presenter, a slaughterhouse person, a rich or poor person or anyone else…
