The UK’s Channel 4 is getting ready for a season of programming on eating healthy and informing people where processed food comes from; including the horrible conditions present in factory chicken farms and other operations. Helping them along the way are chefs Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsay and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.
You can read more about the effort in a past post here. To put aside any differences, the three were sent into the woods to perform some team building exercises and shoot a trailer for the series. What follows in the video is some hilarious tongue-in-cheek humor that’s worth a look.
