Alton reprimands her for that fun unfact, pointing out that chilies and peppers are botanically very different." What the hell was Alton talking about? If he meant the difference between bell peppers and chili peppers then I thought there wasn't really any since they're both <I>Capsicum annuum</I>. Or did he mean the difference between peppers and pepper (<I>Piper nigrum</I>)? Either way it didn't make much sense to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9566587.post-61550494885972964772007-07-22T20:42:00.000-04:002007-07-22T20:42:00.000-04:00I really do not see how they could have put Jag on...I really do not see how they could have put Jag on the show without checking his background. He’s an actor.<BR/><BR/>Paul did not even know that the tomatoes were San Marzano Pomodori style plum tomatoes. Yeah, Paul. They come from Plumy in Italy.<BR/><BR/>How could they bring Amy back on when she was cooking with blood on her hands during the Iron Chef challenge? I wouldn’t eat anything prepared by Amy. The whole thing is ridiculous and Rory should win by default.<BR/><BR/>But then again I wouldn’t eat anything prepared by Emeril or Paula Deen because they wear jewerly when preparing food. Anyone who has worked in the food industry knows that is not safe. Watches, rings, bracelets, etc. should be removed beforehand.<BR/><BR/>I’ll take the chicken prepared with salmonella from your watchband Emeril.

Of all the episodes...Thanks soo much for the recap. Of all the episodes i had to miss, i can't believe i missed last week's. I'm still laughing at the episode where JAG spits out the tofu, saying "blech, this is awful." I'm sometimes confused over where NFNS is going here- do they prefer personality or cooking skills? I'm looking forward to the finale, although i have to admit i still prefer Top Chef :)Tacocathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12238517555204590996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9566587.post-6174236423810414782007-07-14T12:01:00.000-04:002007-07-14T12:01:00.000-04:00Another PS - Props for somehow working both Scotte...Another PS - Props for somehow working both Scotte AND Ann Coulter (polar opposites) into your recap!Stefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024186205791001584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9566587.post-34424714242954320812007-07-14T12:00:00.000-04:002007-07-14T12:00:00.000-04:00I was really surprised that they sent Paul home an...I was really surprised that they sent Paul home and not JAG. The judges said that this was one of the hardest eliminations ever - which is probably true, cuz they had to decide who sucked MORE. Now I'm not sure between Amy and Rory - you're right, Amy really excelled in this episode. I know the next Food Network star will be a woman, jut not sure which one!<BR/><BR/>PS - I just watched the Ingrid Hoffman show. She seems fun, and she was totally showing the cleavage!Stefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024186205791001584noreply@blogger.com
