The Truth Behind Kitchen Nightmares

Gordon Ramsay's TV series Kitchen Nightmares aired in the US from 2007 to 2014, then was resurrected in 2023. The show is currently in its ninth season. In the UK, it was just one of a dozen or so series in which Ramsay cooked while bringing plenty of drama to the kitchen. The US version of Kitchen Nightmares was more about drama than food, which appealed to the American audience. That said, you may be shocked, shocked to find out that not everything you have seen on the show was real. Okay, maybe you weren't shocked at all, but if you'd like to find out what was real and was wasn't all that real on Kitchen Nightmares, Tom Blank of Weird History Food is glad to tell us.
