Giada on the other hand, if you dont look at her larger then normal head and just focus on her.......cooking.......she's okay to watch.....I like to watch her stir.
One thing I really get annoyed with about Foodnetwork is they insist on telling family stories about what their cooking....I dont care about their families or what they used to cook, just show me how to do it, thats all I want.
I like Guy Fietti but he's too over exposed so I only watch "Big Bite" and thats enough of him, his "Cali-Boy" routine gets to be a bit much tho "Thats on point" and "let me de-bling" and so on....
The Neelys don't bother me too much ... I think they're funny. The thing about Giada that really annoys me ... and YES her head is quite bulbous ... is how she has to overpronounce her Italian words. She'll be speaking in her normal voice and then when she gets to a word like spaghetti, she pronounces it "spa-gheee-TEE!" Jeez, just say "spaghetti" like everyone else! It's as if she has to show off how she can pronounce everything with the correct Italian flair and the rest of us can't! :x

I like Guy ... he's okay. I can't stand Bobby Flay ... seems very arrogant. Rachael Ray ... we can't seem to get away from her. I remember about a year or two ago when she was the spokesperson for Ritz products and her face was everywhere in the grocery stores! :cry:
we totally have different Foodnetwork tastes.
I like Bobby Flay, he's my favorite Iron Chef. I like his throw-downs too
It does annoy me when Giada pronounces the Italian accent on ingredients but you have to remember all her relatives are full-blown Italian, I think she's the first full American generation in her family. You know who her Mother and Grandfather is right?

I like Bobby Flay, but mostly on Throwdown. When it comes to Iron Chefs, nobody tops Mario Batali for creativity and food that looks like it tastes absolutely amazing.

Yeah, I know who her grandpa is, and yeah, I know it's probably the only reason she got her own show (well, okay.... There are probably two other very good reasons :D ), but I don't care. I still like her, and I like when she does the Italian pronunciation. I'd rather eat Mario's food, but I'd rather watch Giada cook.

Batali is da man!, and not just because we share the same taste in shoes. You should try some of his off the shelf products. Good stuff.

I'd like to see Emeril Lagasse and Batali in an Iron Chef together, that would be cool, I also like Batali, he has style...

An untapped market just waiting to be exploited! Get 'em hooked by tossing in a hefty splash of vodka, and call it V9. Potatoes count as vegetables, right?? :D
