A chef turned a rat into Remy from the cartoon "Ratatouille". Nick DiGiovanni trained a real rat so that it could cook the dish ratatouille with him.
Professional chef and blogger Nick DiGiovanni spent a whole year training his little helper. The guy taught the rat to wash his hands, select the right ingredients, use a mechanism to pour oil, and even put a decorative twig on the finished dish. To be fair, Nick kept all the other stages of cooking for himself, and the animal sat on his head.
