Had it with the Food Channel...

I just watched a rerun of "Chopped". I have to say it again.......I love the show but I can't take anymore of Alex Groanacelli.

Can she be anymore obnoxious or arrogant? She was shedding tears at the end so I gave into her a little but not much.

I think I desperately need a FN fan to tell me something good about her so I can try to learn to like her.

I think she is more unlikeable than not.

I did watch her program today-it was a rerun of the 'tomato' show she did-Check out her arm movements-RR has the spastic "St Vitus Dance" AG has the refined hand movements of a ballerina/gymnast!

She is very out there.

The hispanic guy is another smug dude. I find him to be annoyingly amusing.

I watched Aaron McCargo again today. His show seemed better again. Is anybody watching it?

I just finished watching "Chopped". I think Alex was overshadowed tonight by the other two judges. Those are some arrogant people judging on that show. Alex looked like a kindergarten kid next to them.
Again tonight, the basket contents are so uncommon from each other, it takes a magician to make them edible together.
One of the segments had canned creamed corn. I don't like it at all. I was totally impressed that they doctored it and were able to add it to their dishes pretty successfully. Something I never would have thought of in a million years.

Maybe we could start a thread of recipes for canned cream corn. Yuck!!!

I like corn. And I'm not allergic to it!

Is Aaron's show really better? Maybe I will DVR it next week, if you say so!

[Daisy and Delilah]

I bet you love corn, Karen!! YAY!! Something you can eat. I love corn too but not that canned creamed corn. I think it tastes weird. My mother makes a delicious southern creamed corn that's to die for.

I think Aaron is pretty humble, for the most part. I love his recipes and the soft side of his personality. He's a chef and not a performer. Maybe FN decided to tone him down. Watch it and see what you think.

LOL, CC is another thing I grew up with. CC, SPAM and Mac and Cheese....I could grow old and never eat them again, But, I when I do I think of my poor Dad...

Did anyone watch CHOPPING BLOCK?

What was that all about, and why are all European restauranteurs patently evil?

The judge/host looked like he smelled-HAHAHAHAHAHA-my mom used that saying when she saw someone on the tube that looked relatively unkempt.

I'll give AM another chance this weekend!

[Daisy and Delilah]

I can't wait to hear what all you guys think of AM's show. Comments welcome.

I had Chopping Block on and I got a phone call. I missed the whole show.

I've never really eaten Spam. I think it has almost a cult following(if I can call it that). There are Spam festivals, etc. Some people love it. There are all kinds of recipes. Maybe I need to check that out too.

How did you eat it, Richard? Plain, fried, in a casserole ? What are the ingredients in it?

We saw Chopping Block - we are watching "Last Restaurant Standing" on BBC America, and I though the description sounded like an American version of that show. Same "couples" compete - one 'front of house' and one cook on each team. In the British version of the show, though, it's a French chef, Raymond Blanc, leading the British teams, so I guess you need to have a foreign accent to be the big baddie on a restaurant competition?

It looks interesting - but in the American version, there are just two restaurants, in the Brit version, each 'team' gets their own restaurant to try to run.
