Regarding cooking shows and Food TV in general. I don't have to endorse
every recipe or cooking method that I observe on the network. I like to think
that I have my own brain to pick out the ideas that work for me. Over the last
few years, I have found that to be true. I watch many of the cooking shows and
find none of them to be obnoxious in my opinion. I cook everyday and I have
successfully used many of the tips that I have picked up from cooking shows.
I don't have a problem translating tips I have learned on the internet to the
equipment and food that I have available.
To spend time and effort to badmouth a food network host is about the most
unproductive endeavor that I can imagine.
