Celebrity chef Alton Brown has apologized for tweeting a “flippant reference” to the Holocaust after encountering backlash online.
On Tuesday evening, Brown posted a tweet -- which has since been deleted -- saying: “Do you think the camp uniforms will be striped, like the ones at Auschwitz or will plaid be in vogue?”
After one person responded saying that it “depends on what you’re worth when you go in,” Brown responded: “I have no gold fillings.”
A screengrab of the original tweet also shows Brown’s interaction with another user who told Brown to “take it easy.”
He responded by saying: “F--- you.”

Brown apologized for his main tweet on Wednesday, saying it was posted “in poor taste.”
“I apologize for the flippant reference I made to the Holocaust in my tweet last night,” he tweeted. “It was not a reference I made for humorous effect but rather to reflect how deeply frightened I am for our country. It was a very poor use of judgement and in poor taste.”
