(ETX Daily Up) – In the United States, new eating habits are fueling a new format of televised cooking competitions. A competition involving professional cooks focusing solely on vegan recipes is currently being filmed.
It is difficult for a viewer observing a vegan diet to identify with the culinary competitions currently programmed on television. Tofu, vegetable steak, fake cheese… It must be admitted that vegetable alternatives are very rarely used by candidates. We will recognize all the same that last year “Top Chef” had highlighted vegetable food thanks to the participation of Sarah Mainguy, chef of the restaurant vacarme in Nantes, who presented many tips to make vegetables tasty.
In the United States, we are moving up a gear with a televised competition entirely devoted to the vegan diet. The project is initiated by a platform, called vKind, which gives advice and recommends brands to facilitate meals for the vegan community. The cooking competition eliminating all animal protein has already been the subject of a single episode, broadcast on Youtube. Faced with the success of the program and the demand, vKind Studios has taken the next step with a television show, expected to hit screens this summer on the Unchainedtv.com platform, a channel committed to promoting vegan food. . Code name: “Peeled”. Understand: peeled, in the language of Shakespeare.
If it is not yet known how many episodes will constitute the competition, one thing is certain: at each issue, the candidate who will obtain the lowest score will be eliminated. At the end, the winner will have to choose a charity to give him a check for 1,000 dollars. The competition takes place in Las Vegas, in a school that claims to be the first in the United States to teach an entirely vegan cuisine.
