MasterChef’s ‘greener’ gas claims under fire

A climate communications group has asked the ACCC to investigate claims made on MasterChef regarding renewable gas.

Climate communications group, Comms Declare, has lodged a complaint to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, asking the watchdog to investigate claims by the Australian Gas Network, made as part of its sponsorship of Australia’s most loved cooking show.

Specific claims brought by Comms Declare include MasterChef host Andy Allen in Episode 4 saying, “and I’m excited to say this year, MasterChef is going greener with renewable gas”.
