The address of Ramsay’s typically Ramsay-like comment is Matthew Francis Johnson, whom the video describes as a food blogger.
Matthew Francis took issue with this description and expressed it quite clearly in the comment for the video: “OMG? ‘Food Vlogger?’ Haha. Matthew here, I am a chef and video producer who’s been lucky enough to make some great professional recipe videos for many great company, but sure I guess Food Vlogger works!” He then proceeds to give the usual thanks and statement about how crazy the whole ordeal of being on “Hell’s Kitchen” is. That is probably as good a way as any to introduce Matthew Francis Johnson. If you do recognize him, it is probably because he used to work with BuzzFeed in making their “Tasty” series. You can find a playlist for the 111 videos he made with them here.
