Longing for Cinnabon and Diet Cherry Dr Pepper?
LOL. Food Network Humor, true to its name, offers a satirical list titled "Understanding the Food Network." These are little known "facts" that will help you "understand why the Food Network is the way it is":
The Neelys: They are brother and sister. They just play a married couple.
Sandra Lee: She feels that she is a woman trapped in a woman’s body.
Tyler Florence: He is extremely sensitive to the fact that his first name is a common last name and his last name is a common woman’s first name.
The Chairman of Iron Chef: He is not a gourmand and his favorite food is Cinnabon washed down with Diet Cherry Dr. Pepper.
With riffs on Guy Fieri, Rachael Ray, Jeffrey Steingarten, Paula Deen and sons, and more.
