Of course, in the weeks following, the Critics&#8217; Choice Awards followed suit by offering plant-based dishes. By the time it was the Screen Actors Guild Awards, a precedent was set, and <strong>Wolfgang Puck<\/strong> created a special vegan menu for the awards show.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, it wasn&#8217;t surprising when the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/2020_oscars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2020 Oscars<\/a> announced their menu for the Governors Ball would be 70 percent plant-based. Puck <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/videos\/269161\/wolfgang-puck-showcases-2018-oscars-dessert-menu?query=wolfgang%20puck\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">has been the longtime caterer for the Governors Ball<\/a>. In fact, this will be the food expert 26th time overseeing the famous feast.<\/p>\n<p>While this plant-based trend may seem revolutionary to some, it&#8217;s actually been a specialty of Puck&#8217;s for quite some time. On Wednesday, the famed chef and his son <strong>Byron Puck<\/strong> made this very point during an appearance on <em>Daily Pop<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes, there&#8217;s a lot of plant! We always did, but we never said it,&#8221; the Austrian-American chef relayed to co-hosts <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/carissa_culiner\">Carissa Culiner<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/justin_sylvester\">Justin Sylvester<\/a><\/strong>. &#8220;Because, we always love vegetables. You know, I go to the farmer&#8217;s market all the time\u2026So, vegetables are my thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"70.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"31\">\n<p>Per the 70-year-old master chef, growing up on a farm made vegetables a major staple in his diet.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We had meat once a week,&#8221; Puck exclaimed.<\/p>\n<p>Although the plant-based dishes will be front and center at the 92nd Academy Awards celebration, a few staples will remain on the menu. We&#8217;re, of course, talking about the Pucks&#8217; iconic Smoked Salmon Oscars.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, <em>Daily Pop<\/em> viewers got a close up of this treat\u2014along with several others. In fact, Byron concocted an impressive spring roll out of apple slices.<\/p>\n<p>Although the elder Puck is all about presentation, he made it clear that taste is what is most important.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The look is always important. You know, that&#8217;s why we put make-up on,&#8221; Puck expressed. &#8220;But I think at the end, it has to taste delicious.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For all of this and more, be sure to watch the Pucks&#8217; drool-inducing cooking segment above.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tune-in-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"34\">\n<p class=\"tune-in__text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\">Watch <i>Daily Pop<\/i> weekdays on E! at 12 p.m. and don&#8217;t miss our 2020 Oscars preview special Saturday, Feb. 8 at 11 a.m.!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tune-in-4\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"35\">\n<p class=\"tune-in__text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\">Watch E!&#8217;s red carpet coverage of the 2020 Oscars Sunday, Feb. 9 starting at 1 p.m. ET\/10 a.m. PT followed by the Oscars telecast at 8 p.m. ET\/5 p.m. PT on ABC!
