herb honey cough drops?!! get out.

I get so upset when the judges say the desserts are too sweet - um it's a dessert you morons!

I'm torn about "chopped" -- I like the idea of it, but the oh-so-dramatic-and-over-seriousness gets to me. -- nm - b. Sep 26, 12:15 12
- the " before/after" aspect of it, sucks me in every time - I look at the ingredients and I go - " no way, they can't do it" and they do. In beautiful - Epiphany Sep 26, 12:25 4
  - I like that part - the quick-thinking and creativity can be terrific. it's just the overall tone that doesn't sit well with me. - b. Sep 26, 12:30 3
    - Yeah, the mystery basket theme is a long-standing challenge among chefs. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 26, 12:35 2
      - really? I had no idea - I feel like I am behind the curve on the cooking shows -- nm - Epiphany Sep 26, 12:40 1
        
        They have one at Napa Food & Wine every year, I think? -- nm - Strongbad Sep 26, 12:43
- i *should* like chopped, but i don't....nm - x Sep 26, 12:18 6
  - is it cause you can't get attached to people - the chefs *and* judges constantly change - Epiphany Sep 26, 12:26 5
    - I am always attracted to the basket and how they use it -- nm - amoxy Sep 26, 12:34
    - there's just something about the format i don't like. i find it sort of lifeless.... - x Sep 26, 12:31
    - Our favorites are Alex G, Amanda Freitag and Scott Conant. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 26, 12:30 2
      - and Aaron, of course. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 26, 12:35 1
        
        I like Mark Murphy and Amanda, but Alex takes herself so seriously sometimes -- nm - amoxy Sep 26, 12:40
