Disclaimer: I absolutely loath and despise "reality"
shows. That being said, however, I was intrigued by the idea of this show so I had my aunt tape it for me since I don't get Food Network. I just watched the first 2 episodes this weekend. It's truly fascinating so see how bad anyone can be at cooking. The best part was the 1st episode where each contestant presents the chefs with an example of their "cooking". There was one that the guy was afraid to even taste after seeing it. Someone even screwed up macaroni and cheese, fer crisakes! The episode on knifes was quite nerve-wracking. Unbelievable how inept they were, for adults. I could see it if it were young children learning to handle a knife, but this was ridiculous. I mean, I didn't really expect them to do the faster-than-light sort of slicing that good chefs do, but they couldn't even cut properly at the horse-and-buggy speeds. ;-) These people are so bad, or were so bad at the beginning, that I wonder it they are "faking" their incompetence to make the show more interesting. Very entertaining for a reality show. And it makes me feel like a cordon bleu chef. ;-) Kate -- Kate Connally “If I were as old as I feel, I’d be dead already.” Goldfish: “The wholesome snack that smiles back, Until you bite their heads off.” What if the hokey pokey really *is* what it's all about? |
