the too hot tamales are such sluts.

bobby flay is so....DREAMY

although i must say, there are only so many ways one can serve turkey and stuffing...i dont get why he didnt do anything more creative.

Uh, HELLO ... it was me who said he stole his outfits from Freddie (correct spelling) Mercury. As Clay would say, "What about MEEEEE?"

Bobby Flay is such a tool. Did you see him on the Next Food Network Star competition? He doesn't seem to understand that "criticism" can be positive, and he was just a complete cunt I wouldn't invite to anything.It pains me that he makes money, and I can't imagine who'd hang out with him.

Also, his turkey in this competition looked seriously under-cooked. Maybe he shares Emeril's contempt for poultry-related hygiene.

I remember an episode from the old "Too Hot Tamales" show when the gals talked about how geoducks (giant clams) resembled a certain part of the male anatomy and then gleefully started hacking them to pieces! Go girls!

This was a very interesting challenge, that each team managed to screw up in one way or another. I thought Bobby Flay's turkey dinners from all corners of the state was great idea until I saw how repetitive it actually turned out to be.

The women were very creative but hit-and-miss. Turkey sorbet? Don't forget, that was corn syrup as well as the brown sugar, butter AND molasses in there.

I was refreshing to see them both get it slightly wrong.

I loved Steingarten's criticism that Flay's serving of one dish in a cast-iron frypan was -- I can't remember what he said, but it was truly nonsensical. He pointed out that the cast iron was cold, therefore didn't even contribute to the dish and as well, the knife scraped unpleasantly on the surface.

so. true.

Yet he was shouted down by the gal to his right bc she couldn't stomach any genuine critisism.

Fascinating stuff.
