        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>These Bon Appétit stars are saying bon voyage.</p><p>Bon Appétit Test Kitchen contributing writer Priya Krishna, assistant food editor Sohla El-Waylly and contributing food editor Rick Martinez have announced they are leaving the video channel.</p><p>Their departure comes after five weeks of contract negotiations, <strong>reports Business Insider</strong>, and a slew of controversy at the popular channel. El-Waylly will continue to write recipes for the magazine and website and Krishna and Martinez will do editorial freelance work.</p><p>All three — that is, half of the six people of color featured on the site — announced their exits in their Instagram Stories and Krishna posted a <a href="https://twitter.com/priyakrishna/status/1291389217038360577" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">long statement on Twitter</a>.</p><p>Their exits come as the Condé Nast publication is embroiled in negative publicity regarding diversity. In June, Bon Appétit’s longtime Editor-in-Chief Adam Rapoport <strong>resigned after a photo surfaced</strong> that showed him in brownface, and Matt Duckor, head of Condé Nast Entertainment’s lifestyle video programming, <strong>stepped down</strong> amid allegations that he didn’t feature people of color in Bon Appétit Test Kitchen videos and paid them less than their white colleagues.</p><p>Anna Wintour, meanwhile, is seemingly staying on as Condé Nast&#8217;s global content adviser despite the diversity scandal, <strong>execs confirmed to Page Six in June</strong>.</p><figure id="attachment_16096561"  class="wp-caption alignnone aligncenter"><strong><noscript><img data- data-src="/uploads/2020/08/ba-test-kitchen-01.jpg" class="lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" /><noscript><img  data-src="/uploads/2020/08/ba-test-kitchen-01.jpg" /></noscript></noscript><img class="lazyload" src='data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20210%20140%22%3E%3C/svg%3E' data- data-src="/uploads/2020/08/ba-test-kitchen-01.jpg" /></strong><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span>(L-R) Chris Morocco, Claire Saffitz, Priya Krishna, Carla Lalli Music, Brad Leone, Gaby Melian, Sohla El-Waylly, Adam Rapoport, Molly Baz, Andy Baraghani and Christina Chaey at a Bon Appétit Test Kitchen event at 92nd Street Y on Feb. 27</span><span class="credit">Getty Images</span></figcaption></figure>]]></content:encoded>
