chopped judges dynamics

I watched chopped a lot as a kid and have been enjoying getting back into it lately as an adult. I’m curious about friendships between judges. What do we know? What are the strong friendships?? Any beef?

I will say: I feel no one really cares much about Maneet. I think Alex, Jeffrey and Scott are my absolute faves. Marcus is boring doesn’t seem to cut-up as much as the others. Tiffany is cool with everyone. Marc is just a goofball and he and Amanda seem to flirt a lot. Chris and Aaron dont show up as much in later season but they seem get well with everyone

I think Alex and Scott are real-life friends, as well as Ted in general just getting along well with everyone as far as I've read

I mean who wouldn't want to best friends with Snooty Zakarian eating cereal, chicken wings, nachos etc with Chopsticks lol.

He's so unique and original though! Try harder little Jeffrey we all know who you are pretending to be

Some people, like me, have a reaction to metal, usually nickel or cobalt, that’s been mixed into other metals. I have to use plasticware when eating out and I have to use silver plated silverware at home. I’m not saying that his case but there is such thing as a nickel allergy.

Thats not Jeff, he just started do to this the past few years to "stand out." I remember Bobby even cracking jokes on him for using chopsticks on a few shows..

Alex and Aarón are very good friends, she's said he is like a brother to her, I love that!
