Meet the “Chef Without a Stomach”, Hans Rueffert Gastric cancer survivor, father, husband, author, speaker, and teacher, Chef Hans was diagnosed with gastric cancer in 2005 just two weeks after taping the finale of the reality show, Next Food Network Star—and quickly traded in his “Celebrity Chef” status for “Cancer Survivor.” Following his diagnosis and subsequent surgeries, Hans has continued to share his talent in the kitchen with thousands. Motivating and engaging, his endless knowledge and love of food coupled with his personal struggles with post-treatment life are a source of ongoing inspiration and interest.
