It didn't take long after being crowned UK's Masterchef for 26-year-old Tim Anderson to explain why he didn't compete on the American version of the show. The reason is Gordon Ramsay. It seems that Anderson, who is from Wisconsin, traveled overseas to avoid Ramsay's screaming. 
Tim said: 
"It's s***. It's an abomination. It's Gordon Ramsay spitting out food and being a d***. Sorry, American MasterChef is appalling.
The British series is very cool. It's all about the cooking. American MasterChef is about Gordon Ramsay being Gordon Ramsay and tearing people down and about a quarter of a million dollar cash prize. My prize is the opportunity."
Glad he feels that way, because his only prize was a trophy, which isn't going to finance his noodle restaurant. Yes, he actually wants to open a noodle establishment. 
Anderson is also penning a children's book about his adventures with co-finalists Sara Danesin Medio and Tom Whitaker. In the meantime, the chef might need a job, which explains his final comments regarding Gordon Ramsay. 
"He is a great chef," added Tim. "I'd love to work in his restaurants, but not for him directly." 
Lots of luck, kid.
