In a move that sent shockwaves through both the culinary world and political spheres, famed chef Gordon Ramsay reportedly threw Minnesota Governor Tim Walz out of his hit show Hell’s Kitchen last night, calling the politician a “woke creep” after a heated exchange over the menu’s “politically incorrect” dishes.

The clash occurred during a special episode of Hell’s Kitchen, where celebrities and political figures were invited to test their culinary prowess. It was supposed to be a night of light-hearted competition, but with Governor Walz’s progressive agenda meeting Ramsay’s no-nonsense attitude, things took a sharp turn. While most of the evening’s competitors were content with the challenges—preparing complicated dishes under intense time pressure—Walz reportedly expressed concern over some of the dishes being “culturally insensitive.”

The governor allegedly took issue with a meat-heavy menu, claiming that it wasn’t environmentally sustainable and suggested swapping the beef wellington for a plant-based option. “We need to think about our carbon footprint and make more responsible choices,” Walz is reported to have said as he pointed at the beef cuts. Ramsay, known for his fiery temper, wasn’t having any of it.

As soon as the words left Walz’s mouth, those in the kitchen claimed you could almost see steam rising from Ramsay’s head. “What do you mean, plant-based? This is Hell’s Kitchen, not a woke daycare center!” Ramsay yelled. “You want to save the planet? Fine, but don’t do it in my kitchen, you donkey!”

The confrontation escalated quickly. Walz, trying to maintain his composure, attempted to explain how the meat industry contributes to climate change and how a more sustainable approach could be beneficial, but Ramsay wasn’t interested. “This is Hell’s Kitchen, not your bloody political campaign rally!” Ramsay snapped. “You’ve turned this kitchen into a joke. Do you want to cook or do you want to lecture me about saving the world? Because let me tell you something—no one’s ever won Hell’s Kitchen with a kale salad!”

Witnesses claim Ramsay then ordered his kitchen staff to throw all plant-based ingredients out of the kitchen, shouting, “No one’s going vegan under my watch!”

Not one to back down easily, Governor Walz reportedly attempted to seize control of the kitchen, suggesting the chefs replace butter with plant oils and insisting they use biodegradable utensils. At this point, Ramsay had reached his limit. “Get out of my kitchen, you woke creep!” he roared, slamming a spatula onto the counter. “You wouldn’t know a well-seasoned dish if it slapped you in the face!”

With that, Ramsay stormed toward Walz and dramatically pointed toward the door. The governor, stunned and red-faced, was ushered out of the kitchen by producers, but not before muttering something about “reaching out to the culinary community for more progressive options.”

Back in the kitchen, Ramsay turned to his team of chefs and shouted, “Right, now that we’ve gotten rid of that, let’s focus on cooking REAL food!” The tension immediately dissipated as the contestants resumed their frantic attempts to impress the famously demanding chef.

Social media exploded as soon as the episode aired, with the hashtag #WokeCreep trending within hours. Ramsay’s fans praised his takedown of Walz, celebrating what many saw as a victory against political correctness infiltrating the world of high cuisine. “That’s why we love Ramsay—he doesn’t hold back and doesn’t let anyone ruin his kitchen with woke nonsense!” tweeted one fan.

Not one to let Ramsay have the last word, Governor Tim Walz took to Twitter the next morning. “Last night’s experience on Hell’s Kitchen proves that we still have a long way to go when it comes to implementing sustainable and responsible cooking practices,” Walz tweeted. “I won’t apologize for standing up for what’s right—even in the kitchen. The planet matters, and I’ll continue to fight for that, no matter how many times I get thrown out.”

Predictably, Walz’s tweet was met with a barrage of responses from Ramsay fans who weren’t buying his attempt to spin the event in his favor. One user commented, “Go find a tofu cooking show if that’s what you want. Leave the real food to Ramsay!” Another quipped, “Maybe try the next Chopped challenge—who knows, they might have a kale salad round.”

Ramsay, who never shies away from a social media showdown, decided to respond in classic Ramsay fashion. “For the record, I’m all for sustainability—just not in my kitchen when I’m trying to run a cooking competition. Let’s keep the politics out of it, and stick to what’s important: making great food. And if Tim Walz wants to try again, I’ll make sure to have plenty of plant-based options waiting for him—right in the garbage.”

The chef’s response garnered tens of thousands of likes and retweets, further cementing his reputation as someone who won’t bow to the demands of political trends, even if it means clashing with high-profile figures.

It remains unclear if Ramsay will continue inviting political figures onto Hell’s Kitchen or if this disastrous episode has put an end to that trend. What is clear, however, is that Gordon Ramsay has no time for wokeness in his kitchen, and anyone who dares try to bring it in will likely meet the same fate as Governor Tim Walz.

In the meantime, fans of Hell’s Kitchen are eagerly waiting to see which celebrity or politician will be the next to clash with Ramsay. After all, if there’s one thing that keeps the show interesting, it’s watching the world’s most explosive chef put people in their place. And for Tim Walz, it’s safe to say his place is far away from Gordon Ramsay’s kitchen.

As Ramsay continues to uphold his no-nonsense approach to cooking and politics, the episode serves as a reminder that some chefs will never compromise their kitchens for anyone’s agenda—woke or otherwise. Whether you’re a fan of Ramsay’s fiery temper or a believer in Walz’s sustainable vision, one thing’s for sure: Hell hath no fury like Gordon Ramsay in the heat of a kitchen battle.
