We, the staffs of Bon Appétit and Epicurious, want to address our readers, contributors, and peers in light of Adam Rapoport's resignation as editor in chief. The deeply offensive photo circulating of Adam is horrific on its own, but also speaks to the much broader and longstanding impact of racism at these brands. We have been complicit with a culture we don't agree with and are committed to change. Our mastheads have been far too white for far too long. As a result, the recipes, stories, and people we've highlighted have too often come from a white-centric viewpoint.

sohlae 2h I know you've been wondering, so here we go: I've decided I won't be producing anymore videos for Bon Appetit. But don't worry, you'll still find me at BA developing fun recipes and stories. No hate to the editors who've decided to stay, it's just not the right thing for me. I'll see you all around!
