The show’s regular presenter Beau Ryan took to the streets of Wentworthville in Sydney’s west as part of his Beau Knows segment.
He’s seen walking along the street before stopping beside a woman of Asian descent who was taking a photo of three dogs in a shop window.
“Picking out which one for dinner?” he asked before smiling at the camera.

The quip was also posted on the show’s Twitter account directly after it aired.
However, it was taken down after their followers slammed them for being “racist.”
The show’s Executive Producer Glenn Pallister has since apologised for any offence caused, conceding the joke had been made at the woman’s expense.
“We apologise for any offence caused, the segment is a comedy one where we have fun with people, but not intentionally at their expense,” Pallister said in a statement to Fairfax Media.
“We clearly went too far on this occasion.”
The comment comes just one day after Sam Thaiday’s on-field comments after Queensland’s State of Origin win divided the public.
