He's not afraid to speak - or shout - his mind, and now celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has found himself in a furious debate on Twitter after upsetting both the vegan community and animal rights organisation PETA.
It all started when Twitter user "Ray" @thiccqueer posted a photo of a dish and asked Ramsay: "How does my vegan lasagna look?"
Ramsay responded with: "I'm a member of PETA ! People eating tasty animals......"
His response has been retweeted over 44,000 times and liked more than 149,000 times.
It has prompted a mixed response, and, naturally, a number of memes.
Some users appear to be amused by the "triggered" vegan community...
...While others were not impressed with his riling.
PETA, (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), even waded in on the debate.
It's not the first time that the outspoken chef has upset the vegan community. In response to a user asking if he had any allergies back in 2016, Ramsay responded: "Vegans."
