Cooking tip - Instead of saying "extra virgin olive oil"

[burythehatchet]

You can cut down the time taken to say all that by just saying "E.V.O.O." - 6 syllables versus 4 syllables. Over the course of time, its gonna add up.

By the way Rachel, you're one canoli away from your own zip code.

1. You mean she's putting on weight?

Say it isn't so!

:(

[burythehatchet]

4. I think if you're going to do a cooking show

you should try to look like the food you make is somewhat healthy. This girl hasn't missed many meals.

8. Perhaps you prefer Sandra Lee, the stick woman?

Never trust a skinny cook!!!

Rachel can cook with me anytime!!!

[Rabrrrrrr]

20. Being fat doesn't mean you make good food.

It just means you're fat. It might mean that you cook unhealthy food, but not necessarily so. It could also mean you have a food addiction. Or biological problem.

There is no correlation whatsoever between the goodness of one's food and the girth of one's corpulance.

[Dr Fate]

30. Except Rachel aint fat.

Anyone who thinks she is fat has been brainwashed by those fashion nagazines.

[Rabrrrrrr]

31. I have no idea if she's fat. I have seen her perhaps all of twice,

in past years.

But you seem to be making the argument that the heavier a person is, the better a cook they must be. Or if not that, that there is at least SOME porportional link between weight and tastiness of food.

I am arguing that there is no link at all, whether proportional or inverse proportional.

One can make no arguments of food tastiness based solely on the body shape of the cook.

9. Yes And Which MALE TV Chefs Are Also Mr. Universe Buff?

Really, that was a pretty stupid statement! People do come in various different sizes you know and TV model skinny doesn't apply to everyday people with every day jobs, it doesn't mean they should be banned from TV! What bull...I think she looks fine.

[burythehatchet]

12. Good idea

I think I'll start a campaign to ban her from the TeeVee...

[tjdee]

11. No, you should try to look like the food you're making is GOOD!

I can watch an exercise show if I want to lose weight. When I'm watching a cooking show, show me the yummy, LOL.

If Rachael's eatin' her food, I'm cool with that.

[Dr Fate]

2. Rachel is looking good- I'm glad she is not an anorexic magazine model

Don't mess with my girl Rachel!!!

What is wrong with a little meat on the plate? PLEASE!!!

[burythehatchet]

6. Dude, 3 months away

she was sexy and pleasantly plump. At this point, I don't know man.

[Dr Fate]

10. Different strokes.

I think she is looking good- like I said, I need a little meat on my plate.

[The Night Owl]

3. EVOO is overrated

[Rabrrrrrr]

5. And if you can't find chorizo, just use Kielbasa!

And if you don't have that, use some carrots that are sausage-shaped. Same dif.

7. .

:rofl:

[Modem Butterfly]

28. ROFLMAO!

:rofl:

[tjdee]

13. Olive oil is three syllables.

I don't know where I've ever seen a cooking show where they *don't* use extra virgin olive oil. Seems they could save everyone the aggravation and extra mouth work by just calling it olive oil!

[jonolover]

14. Leave her be people!

Don't make fun of her. I like her and her show. You go Ray-Ray!

[Kraklen]

15. I don't mind Rachael Ray.

But only in comparison to Emeril.

Jesus, people. Yeah, Rachael Ray and Bobby Flay suck, but look at Emeril for fuck's sake.

[tjdee]

17. You know you want to kick that up a notch!

BAM!

[Kraklen]

19. OH MY GOD! HE SAID BAM! RIGHT ON!

[tjdee]

22. You'd think after the fiftieth BAM! the audience would stop it.

I know they're probably coached or have that "Applause!" sign...but how can they go nuts every time?

[Kraklen]

23. OH MY GOD! HE USED GARLIC! GARLIC!!!!

[K8-EEE]

26. LOL! Yeah I Guess You're Right

For some reason my husband loves to watch that show -- he likes the band and the NoLA refs because he has a lot of good memories of that town.

I wish somebody applauded me every freaking night when I get the garlic press out!

[burythehatchet]

21. Emeril is a complete no-no in this house

there are not many non-politicians more annoying than Emeril.

[K8-EEE]

24. Bobby Flay, OMG, He Seems Like Such An ASS!

He's just GOTTA be GOP, doesn't he seem so arrogant? All he ever does is throw stuff on the grill...

I think both Emeril and Rachel seem friendly and affable, they don't bug me really but I can't watch cooking shows. I cook almost every night so it's the last thing I want to watch after the dishes are finally done!

16. Her head is becoming as bloated as Rosie O'Donnell's

Definitely going in the wrong direction.

[tjdee]

18. If she's a cook, and she's eating the food she's cooking....

what's the problem?

It's not like she's an actress (because, it's important for them to be thin to...um...say their lines.....) or a swimsuit model. Or an exercise guru.

[El Fuego]

25. A sandwich is NOT a "sammy"

Everytime she makes a "sammy" I want to scream. And then :puke:.

Must she infantalize an ordinary sandwich? Arrrggghh.

[K8-EEE]

27. OMG She DOES?

OK that's annoying...I only watched her once and she didn't make any sammies!

[El Fuego]

29. Yep, all the time!
