In the Miami challenge Jemeka was only given celery root while Debbie had all her spices taken and given 3 ingredients to use. Bobby was all over her for forgetting the capers. He was always ready to find fault with her. Did anyone notice that in Melissa's demo she didn't use any seasoning on the chicken or in the flour? Bobby would have been all over if that had been Debbie. As for Jeffery - I've been team Jeffrey since Debbie was gone. I've been looking for harissa since his demo aired. I think Debbie and Jeffrey's concepts were unique and fresh. Melissa has that deer in the headlights look to her like Amy Finley. And where's she? Food Network got it wrong this time. Maybe next year! Melissa is another Robin Miller or Sarah Moulton - they may cook, but not passionate.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00805604316277580956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30368617.post-35935908894913050972009-08-02T04:27:24.499-04:002009-08-02T04:27:24.499-04:00Rachel:

When they did initial cast member intros, I felt a certain level of pride and happiness...it isn't very often you see Koreans on the FN.<br /><br />Also, Rachel, you say it's "annoying" when strangers tell each other what they "NEED to be doing"....Well, it's equally (if not more) annoying when I see a stranger telling me what I am really thinking, and how my thought process works. I think it's ridiculous for a stranger to be telling me what I am thinking; especially when they are dead wrong.<br /><br />Like I said...once you give people a reason to dislike you, they will pick a part every single flaw you have.<br /><br />I have never, in my entire life, heard anyone call Ina or Lidia "fat" (here, there or anywhere else. NEVER)...do you know why? Because these are two very respectable and honest women.<br /><br />As far as the show goes, I see Melissa winning for the same reasons Jacob stated, though Michael winning to take the "gourmet" style daytime show isn't out of the question either. I think with his hits and misses, he did put out some sophisticated plates.<br /><br />Michael or even Jamika would do well on a "Will Work For Food" type show...I honestly think if FN decided to do a series like DD&D where they send Mike to different hotspots and nightclubs to taste the food, it would go over really well.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11133146058487440044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30368617.post-20143001318318084372009-07-29T09:33:30.032-04:002009-07-29T09:33:30.032-04:00@Rachel

I'm sure Debbie would have gladly accepted the BENEFITS of being on TV...but NOW that shes a LOSER she will accept the ridicule!!<br /><br />Debbie would have done much better if she had made all her appearances, and done all her cooking from atop a treadmill that she was constantly running on! That would have defiantly shut everyone up, she would have been 'trying' NOT to be a FATTY!<br /><br />But thats not the case, so game on! <br /><br />FN missed a HUGE marketing opportunity by passing on Debbie.

It's a simple fact that when you display a lack of moral fiber, integrity and honesty, you show the world that you're an ugly person on the inside.<br /><br />When that happens, people will tend to criticize you and point out your other faults as well....the fact that she happens to be obese by medical definition is just her most visible fault. If she was skinny to the point of her cheekbones jutting out of her face, people would have attacked that physical attribute instead.<br /><br />Michael is a fat guy as well. However, NOBODY attacked him for his weight. Do you know why? Because he showed integrity, a working moral compass and honesty.<br /><br />You can criticize Michael for freezing up too much or being too flamboyant at times, but nobody will ATTACK him for any of his physical traits because from what we've seen, he's not an ugly, vindictive vampire on the inside.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11133146058487440044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30368617.post-82901319274985628122009-07-28T12:20:07.589-04:002009-07-28T12:20:07.589-04:00I saw Cake Boss.

We ...I don't want to see overweight fat cooks. We have become a nation of fat folks. I have a condition that makes it damn near impossible to eat food. I want every bite I take to taste good since I can only have few bites at a time. Every time I go into the supermarket, I have to watch what I buy to prevent me from getting a reduced fat item. I need every calorie I can get down. I just love looking at food, but I don't want to see heaping mounds of food that fills a plate give me a beautiful presentation of a tasty treat. I want to see a nice presentation of a "reasonable" portion.<br /><br />If you are overwight you should do something about it. Usually this involves something complicated, like not putting the food in your mouth. Think of that 64 ounces of diet soda filling your stomach keeping it big so you can stuff gobs and gobs of "lite" food into your overweight body and then you flop down on the couch and watch some fat chick from Glendale AZ on "American Idol" or fat Mikey on "American Chopper".<br /><br />Jacob makes some solid points as to why Melissa should win. I did watch episodes of Amy Finley, just didn't get all that excited about it. I quit taping RR cause her 30 minute meals are pretty much all the same. Like I said I am holding my decision to Sunday night and can live with either winning a fair contest. Follow that with another episode of "True Blood"<br /><br />Other TV: TLC Who watched Cake Boss, Monday? Buddy frosted a cake blindfolded, including topping it with a rose, now that was pretty cool.<br /><br />Tomorrow is the big night over on Bravo the Finale of "Top Chef Masters" Michael C is the FN chef that made the cut along with Oprah's boy Art.Lord of Light AZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06174520799117462769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30368617.post-7055291609636177062009-07-27T22:18:52.825-04:002009-07-27T22:18:52.825-04:00AMEN!AMEN!Beanerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17929729960928270512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30368617.post-39416919305648135922009-07-27T20:59:21.317-04:002009-07-27T20:59:21.317-04:00"I agree with water sign.
