The verdict! Anne Burrell's new show - Did you watch?

Who the hell is in charge of recruiting and screening new talent for the Food Network..........people on acid? Take people like Bobby Flay, Ina Garten, Nigella Lawson, Paula Deen and a few other tried and true professionals and have THEM select the new talented wannabes. The current regime needs to be banished, and SOON!

Food Network jumped the shark when...

@beth1...you are so right. The Fine Living Network has cooking shows that are informative, entertaining and a joy to watch. The Food Network used to be that way, but sadly the good shows are being replaced with a lot of trash.

Do you think the Food Network cares about our comments?

Absolutely not! They feed us whatever they feel we should "want to see", not what we are really hungry for.

Domestic goddess Martha Stewart banned from the UK! Is it FAIR?

Obviously some bloke in the Department Of Proper Etiquette DOPE) stumbled across this nifty prerequisite for entry and thought his tea had been spiked. With glee he danced his way to the proper authorities and proclaimed his monumental find. PERHAPS this is payback for refusing Ms. Winehouse entry for the Grammy's! How very sad indeed.

Ed Levine's Serious Diet, Week 23: What's Your Ideal Diet Breakfast?

Ed
Way to go. Screw the detractors and all the negative feedback. Like Dr. Ruth once said......."If it feels good, do it!" The banana provides the fruit, potassium and wholesome "feel good" lift that you need. The chips offer the needed sodium, cover the required vegetable component and hold off any further "salty temptations". Lastly, as far as the Diet Coke is concerned, it's nothing more than a cold, carbonated version of java. I've been drinking it instead of coffee for years.

If allowed only one - Salt or Pepper - What would you choose?

What, no saffron?........LOL. I would definitely opt for pepper, since salt can be had naturally in so many ways.

Let's talk duck fat... YUM... What's your fantasy recipe?

I've tossed it in with my ground chuck when making burgers for the grill. OH MY GOD!

In Videos: Bobby Flay on 'Nightline'

Bobby Flay is a "self made" master of his art, and deserves to be recognized as such. His southwestern flair has made a dramatic impact on menus throughout the food industry, as well as with thousands of weekend "grill warriors" across the country. Kudos to you Bobby!
