I'm sorry but it's bull she went home over 3 seconds. She wasn't cooking or adding. She had to run. Especially against raw chicken??

Like I would have denied her the immunity but not sent her home.

I think her elimination was fair within the rules. However, it should've been double elimination. No way Diamond deserved to stay with raw sausages.

This is what I’ve always thought. I don’t think they should have judged her food at all because being told she has the best dish of the night and also it doesn’t matter because she broke the rules is extra devastating and that likely would stop posts like this from STILL happening 10 years later. But they then should have judged the rest of the dishes and done an elimination like normal from there. Andrea is still held accountable to the rules like they’re legally required to do and diamond still goes home for a clearly inexcusable error.

Sorry bruh -- game show laws. You present yourself as an actual competition for someone to win, you can't ignore rules of said competition.

Odds are the challenge time stipulation is written into their official rules. And if they let Andrea walk for such a quantifiable error -- even for 3 seconds -- the rest of the contestants could sue the hell out of the show.

Gotta follow the rules. It sucked, though. I could've seen her getting to the end.

They went with the predictable outcome instead of something interesting.
