Is Noel Fielding vegan?

No, Noel Fielding does not appear to be vegan. However, Noel was the inspiration behind the Vegan Week challenge on the Great British Bake Off.

The Great British Bake Off announced their first vegan week in 2018, and it was reportedly Noel’s idea to win over a millennial “snowflake” audience.

A representative for Channel 4 at the time said:

“When Noel put forward the idea producers leapt at the chance to try something different — especially as they think it’ll appeal to younger viewers. While the show has a loyal fanbase, those in charge are keen to snap up a different demographic.”

Does Noel Fielding eat cake?

Back in 2017 Noel Fielding shocked fans when he said in an interview that he avoids sugar as it is “a very powerful thing.”

He said in an interview: “I get more work when I’m thinner, so I can’t put on weight. It’s not that I don’t like cake — I have a very sweet tooth.”
