My politics are very liberal as well. Do you think Mr Putin would send me down the salt mine?<br /><br />I agree that added Putin would spice up TV considerably.

I have only ever watched about 15 mins of the show once and thought . . . . . this is not for me. But with President Putin on board these cooks really would need to worry, one error and it would be down the salt mine.... Nigella and Mr Putin would be one hell of a team as she smiles at his bear chest and he runs a finger across his throat while looking daggers at another hopeful as they bite the dust (in more ways than one). <br /><br />And dont worry about the food it all goes to a homeless shelter where folk are all given a spoonful so they can appreciate how the rich live and dine before it all goes to land fill, so maintaining the economic imbalance, and ensuring those without, know what those with have.<br /><br />I note hints of leftest leaning and all men are equal towards the end of this post Mr Addman, by adding Mr Putin to the shows celebs I think I have addressed this issue rather well.

You always manage to fool me, Addman. But they should make a cooking show based in a third-world country. Theuy will strip every utensil and cooking tool away from the chefs, and have themtry to cook a meal with items they scavenge throughout the day. Kind of like Survivor, but the contestants can actually starve to death.<br /><br />But this is some good timing for this post because just yesterday, a kid I went to school with tried me to like some page on Facebook. Turns out he's going to be on some MTV cooking show mixed with elements of Jersey Shore and The Real World. I wish I was kidding, here's the trailer: http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/1008011/house-of-food-trailer.jhtmlChizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00278752118665353147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2757164187474622670.post-57815052652272812382014-03-07T13:30:20.061+00:002014-03-07T13:30:20.061+00:00I thought all of these cooking shows were meant to...I thought all of these cooking shows were meant to be an enormous middle finger to starving nations. Don't we air-drop plasma televisions and electricity into developing nations just so that we can force them to watch in envy? It's like what Brazil does with sex. Carnival is just to mock the uptight nations who don't openly sex all the sexing time.

However, perhaps they should consider sending some of it to their television audiences. At least that way we can experience the food they're describing, rather than passively watching it on a screen with no frame of reference.Adam Lloydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15404990952302454770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2757164187474622670.post-63632043361707963462014-03-07T12:53:27.103+00:002014-03-07T12:53:27.103+00:00I do remember Ready Steady Cook, but I barely ever...I do remember Ready Steady Cook, but I barely ever watched it because Ainsley's near-constant grinning used to frighten me in my younger days.

Oh please. To be honest I never actually thought much about where the food went on cookery programs. You make an excellent point though. It really does seem to all go to waste.

A half ripped Tesco's bag with a bruised potato, half a bottle of "red sauce" with a fist full of that grim crust on the lip of the bottle, a randon vegetable-like-thing described as " I bought it not knowing what it was" and some grey meat that may or may not have teeth marks in it was all they had to work with in the good old days.<br />There was none of this unpronounceable foreign muck that, even if you wanted to, you could neither afford nor find in your local Aldi. It honest working class gruel.<br />Ainsely Harriott would spend the whole show laugh maniacally at everyone and everything while two chefs would weep in disappear at having nothing to do but blend the fuck out of everything before giving up and just serving the Tesco's bag with a sprig of basil.<br />Ainsley, as I'm sure you remember, would prattle on about Percy Pepper and Suzie Salt, getting in the way and asking the fruitcake member of the public what the hell they think they are doing before demanding the 50 or so octogenarians hold up a placard with either a pepper or a tomato to decide who wins.... (god I can't remember) while the other one is taken outside and shot (probably).<br /><br />Everything else has been a watered down bastardised version of what was pure TV gold.... I'd rather eat a gallon drum of the muck they ended up serving on Ready Steady Cook than have a spoon of nothingness that ends up costing ten times as much. I don't know who is to blame for all of this but it definitely their fault and something should be done.Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14381410202609567450noreply@blogger.com
