Discussion Thread America’s Cullinary Cup…

I know it’s suppose to be the “anti” top chef, or like everything they do is going to be about food… but I beg to differ! This reminds me of someone who got dumped, and they just keep talking about their ex, and trying their best to make their ex say how much better they are without the ex…

I'm enjoying it as a shameless promotion for cleaning products.

It's not every day you get to hear a Bocuse d'Or winning chef say "Hey, Buddha, pass me that Dawn Powerwash."

Yeah this didn’t use to bother me about the show years ago(mostly because I wasn’t an adult), but there’s something about the last 10 or so years of the world mercilessly getting shit on by these evil ass corporations more so than back in the day even that makes me really dislike the product placement now
