I can't bring myself to watch food network very often except for this show. I have probably learned more from Alton Brown than two years of culinary school.....

Best cooking show out there. Alton is by far the best on screen educator that I've seen. The food he cooks is generally not as 'sexy' as some of the other star chefs, but his explanation of technique and chemistry is spot on. There are other 'dumbed down' cooking programs out there ala Rachel Ray, but they/she really just teaches someone how to execute a recipe. Alton teaches skills that can be applied to other dishes.

Good Eats is the only remaining watchable show on a network that used to be full of awesome. Who needs professional chefs showing off their craft when we can have hack nobodys showing off their kitchen skills mixed in with overhyped reality shows?

Alton is great. We catch his show pretty much every night around 11.

I concur, Alton is the man.


Oh, and my name for her is Giada De La Boobies.



Although truth be told, after Good Eats, my second favorite culinary type show is No Reservations on the Travel channel.

such wonderful big teeth she has.....;)

And in my professional opinion, because of their slight variation in symmetry and color in different areas, I'd say that they're 100% real. Of course I'd need to examine them up close to be 100% sure, but if I had to, I guess I would ;) :)

Funny, I was thinking exactly the same thing about her boobs.
