You guys miss the point of the show. It is to test a chef's
creativity and food intuition. They are given some weird stuff and
told that they can use any part or all of each ingredient in their
dish. They have access to a well stocked pantry and refrigerator
full of fresh herbs and dairy, etc. as well as appliances, wines,
spirits, a blast chiller and ice cream machine....in other words a
complete kitchen.

The whole thing about the show that interests me is that I try to
figure out what I would do with the ingredients. Some of them are
easy for me, I come up with a dish right away. Some are really hard
if the ingredients are unfamiliar or disgusting.

Some chefs rise to the challenge, some fail miserably, but they all
concoct something. Some are
successful and some are not. I've been really impressed with a few
of the contestants. Some of the creativity is applause worthy.
