Pickles

Just did a search for "Kaboom" and "Kaboom Cereal" and no products came up. Was going to order a box as a "gag" (literal??) X-mas gift for sis who loved it as a kid.

My 18 month old son is in love with Rachael Ray. If I were 18 months old, I might just like her myself. I guess I like more seasoned (pun intentional) food people. It seems so many of these TV Food Network "stars" have no real resumes under their belts. They're as green as the asparagus they're steaming. The choices on TFN are so limited now. Each time I tune it it's Emeril Emeril Emeril....or a show on candy making around the U.S. Have they taken off that abomination with the two women cooking low-fat vs. full fat foods? My GAWD that was painful to watch. Absolutely in the "what were they THINKING?" category. I actually liked TFN when it was in its infancy and practically all the shows used/shared the same kitchen. The shows were bare bones, but you actually learned something.

I thought it was just me who thought that! HAH!

First hello (newbie here) and a thanks to Ronnie for posting that short slurp on Keith Floyd. Dayummm...I love that man. But not as much as I love Tony Bourdain. His comment on fish sauce was so dirty....but OH so funny! Unfortunately I was watching with my aged mother at the time, who wanted me to 'splain the girl/fish thing. Oy! Anyway my favorite foodies are: Tony. Never thought I could fall in love with a celeb but...I did. Keith Floyd (dang I wish I'd stolen that video of "Floyd on France" from the Boston Public Library before I split--the bloody wonderful thing is OOP now! ) Julia Child (met her in Boston...was so excited I cried) Jacques Pepin (met him too. He's very nice looking in person but not as tall as one would think) Nigella Ruth Reichel (Tender At The Bone was just amazing M.F.K. Fisher (as writer and as person...she rules) Can't Stand: Most of the crap on Food Network Alton Brown (used to like him, now he totally grates on my last nerve) Mothra Stewart (worked with her in '82 when she was still a nothing caterer. She thinks her poop smells like ice-cream... ) Rachel Ray (annoying little bimbo) EMERIL--absolute Neanderthal in the kitchen. Has all the class and finesse of a moose in ballet tights.
