- BY LOUIE SMITH

DEATH threats against a chef who boasted of “spiking” a vegan with cheese are being investigat­ed by police.

Laura Goodman, 47, said she spent all day on a special menu for vegans and vegetarian­s then one ordered a pizza with non-vegan mozzarella.

She said on Facebook she “spiked a pious, judgmental vegan”, who had “gone to bed still believing she’s a vegan”. Police called at her Carlini’s restaurant in Albrighton, Shrops, after the threats. Fiance Michael Gale, 62, said: “We now understand in the vegan world saying ‘spiked’ means you’ve put meat in it, which is not the case.” He added: “Our world has been turned upside down with death threats, threats of violence, of lawsuits from around the world.” Shropshire council said it had received complaints and was investigat­ing.
