food Network Hosts You Hate — Page 9

I watch hours of Tivoed Food Network shows. I do a lot of entertaining and Sandra Lee's Home-made recipes are pretty great. Most of my friends are foodies and snobbish about food/drink it's pretty cool what you can get away with.

I also like Barefoot Contessa, I like the care she takes cooking. Paula Deen is also fun to watch, but I've seen her put butter in Spaghetti and meatballs.

What about her Jimmy Carter specials? She's had two already.

Holy revived thread, batman!

Rachael Ray is pretty much the opposite of sexy. Giada...not so mad. I think Alson Brown is incredibly sexy, in a nerdy, quirky way.

So did Tony Danza.

Do you realize there are websites based on distane for Rachael Ray. Just google her name.

Tyler is cute, but I think Dave Lieberman is REALLY attractive. Yum!

How is Rachel Ray's new show?

"Two fat ladies were quite interesting. They used so much molasses...and sugar. Uh."

Gee, if IHeart called Ina a HIPPO, imagine what she'd call them.

I like Rachel Ray, but she's being way overexposed. I've gotten many excellent recipes from Ina and love her show (anyone know if she has new ones on yet?). Tyler Florence has also provided me with some good recipes, including the easiest and best lemon blueberry scone recipe. Alton Brown reminds me of the anal retentive chef on SNL, and the attempts at humor on his show make me cringe. Wolfgang Puck is probably the best chef of them all, but really sucks as a television personality. Also enjoy Paula's shows and some of her recipes and Giada's have also been enjoyable. Emeril's attempts at humor on his show..like his seasoned flour "joke"?.. fall flat, and his co-dependent relationship with his audience is bizarre, but some of his recipes too have been quite good. Now as for Sandra Lee, we've also noticed her lets say..fascination..with alcohol. If you want humor in a cooking show...her show is IT..She always is making these cocktails with like a dash of juice and this huge amount of liquor, and her recipes are absolutely ludicrous. Yes Im addicted to the food channel.

Bumping this up for two reasons:

1. Where's the best place in Manhattan to get red velvet cake or cupcakes? I'm on an obsessive prowl right now.

2. Does anyone else find the Everyday Italian host to be extremely annoying? She has a typical American accent and is totally fine with me until she says something like ricotta and it becomes "ri-COD-ta" or "marsca-POHN-eh"...like okay, we get it, you're Italian. And trying too hard. Move on.

---

Yeah, Giada makes me crazy with the way she says, "Feh-thooo-cheeeny!" lol She was born in Italy and her mother has a thick accent.

---

To me, nothing could be more annoying than Paula Deen's southern drawl which seems to increase with each passing episode.
