Gordon Ramsay's secret burger binge habit!

Fine dining demi-god Gordon Ramsay a burger gobbler? Incredible but true, it appears.

Talking in Beverly Hills at a special Q&A on the US version of his show Hell's Kitchen, the chef admitted he's a big fan of one legendary Californian burger chain: "I keep a low profile, but I sneaked into In-N-Out burger the other day. Animal style, that's the secret code, I've got all these code names now for fried onions mixed in with my cheese. People think that American's are obese and burgers are bad for you - they are delicious."

Gordon clearly isn't afraid to pig out: "I was so bad - I went and sat in the restaurant and had a double cheeseburger animal style, and then 15 minutes later drove back around in my car and got the same thing as a takeaway. Mmmmm..."

He's not the only celebrity that has confessed to loving the chain. Angelina Jolie admitted that she left the 2003 Academy Awards ceremony early to stop for an In-N-Out on the way home. When Paris Hilton was arrested for DUI in 2006 she claimed: "I was just really hungry, and wanted to have an In-N-Out Burger."

But chef Gordon doesn't need to watch his weight - his current exercise regime is running home after a long shift in the kitchen, carrying a rucksack full of potatoes.
