Robert Irvine Fired from the Food Network
It's pretty terrible that he lied about that stuff but I really liked him on Dinner Impossible...does "looking for a replacement host" mean that they're keeping the show though?

I have a subscription to Everyday Food so I've made quite a few things from there. And I made her pumpkin cupcakes with cream cheese frosting for a work party a couple of weeks ago.
I like the Trader Joe's Sweet, Savory & Tart Trek Mix. I recognize it's not terribly healthy, with chocolate, white chocolate, and peanut butter chips along with the raisins and nuts, but it's yummy and a nice pick-me-up at work in the afternoon.
I really dislike tiramisu or anything with the slightest bit of coffee or mocha flavor. Also not a fan of cannolis...
I lived in Rochester, NY for one summer and I was pretty obsessed with Abbott's Frozen Custard. We got it a couple of times a week at least (I know, really healthy).
Icing with way too much sugar. I'm usually the one scraping icing off of cake at parties.
Banana bread or cooked bananas (plantains don't count). I love bananas though.
Most corporate baked goods; you can taste the lack of love and care in them, and I can't remember ever reaching for carrageenan or sodium benzoate when baking.
Sugar-free anything. Sugar substitutes taste nasty.
Most fruitcakes. I'm bored with them.
Adult-sized slices of chocolate cake. I usually find it too rich to eat in large quantities. I love chocolate, I just prefer it in small doses.
Most donuts, except for cake donuts.
Crunchy cookies. Just not a fan of the texture.
Desserts that make me go meh:
Red velvet cake? I mean, it usually tastes OK (vaguely reminiscent of malted milk, like Wendy's frosties), but I always feel odd eating so much food coloring.
Sock-it-to-me/7-up/insert soda here cake. Common in Southern cooking, and almost always too sweet.
Re: buttercream icing: unless you had it on a homemade cake or cake from a wedding party, it probably wasn't made with real butter. 'Buttercream' icing made from vegetable shortening is pretty disgusting.
I'm surprised so many people here don't like tiramisu, but I've had my share of bad tiramisu. I'll second the cannoli though. Highly overrated and just not that tasty.
LIARS MUST BE STOPPED!
This guy figured, like all liars, that they are far more clever than anyone else and therefore could just slide his crap by unnoticed. HA! Hurray for those who blew the whistle on this fraud.
Now as for him and his little show, I thought it should have been called Dinner Impossible to Watch. Hmmm much like a lot of FoodNetwork drivel. I just can't bring myself to watch that poor dumb ass Paula Deen (but I was horrified when dreaded Bobby Flay doused her with corn starch on his little Throw Up show).
On the other hand, someone's comment about Sandra Lee's "getting hammered in her million dollar kitchen while hubby's at work" sounds very intriguing!
After reading again many of your comments... and I don't want to be the bad guy here...
He LIED about his experience.. if I applied for an 8.00 dollar an hour job I would be fired for the same thing...
NO, I've never cared for him,, YES I feel vindicated in my feelings..
However,, he's a liar.. plain and simple. would you want that person working for you???
He's dishonest and a fraud..
Don't pity the fool!
I don't often take pleasure in anyones misfortune...
Unless they did it to themsleves...
I never liked this guy.. way too cockey...
The show stinks and apparently he does too...
Now on to Rachael Ray..... the most annoying person on TV...
OMG....EVOO!!!! everyone!
i wish they would release a statement saying,"he misled us, it's not ok, but we forgive him and will keep his show"....that would be perfect.
because honestly, no one is perfect and i think his show was great.
I PERSONALLY THINK THAT ROBERT DID A FINE JOB..LIKE WE ALL HAVE NEVER STRETCHED THE TRUTH, THE SHOW WILL PROALLY CRASH SINCE HE MADE IT WHAT IT WAS!!! TAKE HEART TO OTHERS..HE'S PROBALLY DOING FINE WITH OUT THE SHOW. GOOD LUCK TO YOU ROBERT!!!
I don't really care for him and I thought his show was ok, but I feel sorry for the guy. It's gotta hurt when your show gets canned, but sandra lee gets to keep hers.
I'm affraid, But maybe now my wife will look at me instead of him.lol
I really really love Robert. Come on now why would they throw away such a great and funny talent. I understand he may not have told the complete truth, but Has he not proven himself???????? This is very very upsetting i am now currently on hold at the following number 865-560-3663, this is where if you are a fan of Robert's you can express your feelings.
