Cooking show host faces backlash after feeding butter to vegan guest

The host of a British cooking show was pressured to apologize on live TV... after he accidentally neglected to tell a vegan guest that the dish he was serving him was made with butter. Simon Rimmer used ghee — which is clarified butter — while making Masoor dahl on his “Sunday Brunch” show. Jon Richardson, the guest, was willing to try anything as long as it fit within his vegan diet. Viewers complained online immediately during the commercial break. Most were upset that Rimmer, who runs a vegetarian restaurant, wouldn’t take Richardson’s dietary restrictions more seriously. Upon returning from commercial break, Rimmer apologized to the audience. Then to Richardson, Rimmer said, “On behalf of myself and the Sunday Brunch team, I would like to sincerely apologize". “When I’m sick during my interview, you can take responsibility for that,” Richardson joked in reply
