Guy Fieri Served Meals For California Wildfire Survivors
Celebrity chef and television personality with about 10 different shows on Food Network Guy Fieri partnered with the Salvation Army in order to provide meals for survivors of the devastating wildfire making its way through California on Thursday.
Fieri set up a mobile kitchen at the Santa Rosa Veterans Memorial Building parking lot in his hometown of Santa Rosa, California. He cooked pulled pork, roasted chicken, coleslaw, bean salad, and macaroni and cheese–Guy Fieri and his assisting crew served an estimated 2,500 people.

While speaking to KQED, Fieri said he was awoken by his wife as the wildfire affecting so many came near their home in Santa Rosa. “We had to evacuate at 2 in the morning, and we grabbed what we could, taking pictures off the wall as fast as we could. Jumped in the truck, loaded in the dogs, and away we went,” he said. Very fortunately for Guy and the rest of his family, their house was not harmed in the fire.
Though there were allegations on social media that claimed Guy set up the mobile kitchen as a publicity stunt, Fieri responded saying, “This isn’t a PR stunt. You don’t see my banners up. I’m not promoting anything. I’m just here cooking. This is feeding people. People need help, and I’m here to help. That’s it.”
