Stirling can't disappear fast enough for my liking.

Why are Kaila's eyes so dilated? And yes, blurring the word "Philadelphia" but then saying it repeatedly was totally strange, I agree.

She seems to be a very odd dichotomy. On one hand, she's an iconoclast, to the point of shunning others' advice, and sometimes it works in her favor (the scary clown doll...or doll clown...one of those), and sometimes it doesn't (the many-eyed Cyclops...oy). On the other, she acts like a little girl. So which is the real Sasha? Is the "little girl" bit just an act to get attention when things don't go her way? I'm beginning to think so.

Is it possible that a salad of raw green apple slices and chunks of sour gummy candies is actually good? Who was that woman in the middle? What did they do with the real Alex?!

I also thought her roach looked like the "bug" Vincent D'Onofrio plays in the first Men in Black.

I get that Pro Chef Giorgio was being held to higher standards than the"Joes" and was chopped for overcooking the risotto and undercooking the penne. But I'm calling shenanigans at the outcome. All along, this whole competition was set up to see if amateurs (debatable in this case) could beat the pro. So guess what? She did. And did she win because they decided that she deserved it more? That doesn't seem right to me. To Giorgio's credit, he was very gracious in defeat.

The insects Aaron mentioned were crickets, ant larvae and grubs. And color me another viewer glad to see the back of Chili con Carnie. Her shtick is neither charming nor adorably eccentric. Just annoying.

And now we know why the atmosphere of this show is so unlike other competitive reality shows - it's the personalities of the judges. I loved how stoked they were about each other's work, so complimentary and supportive. And even Glenn showed us he's not the cartoon he presents himself to be. Anyone who loves animals is more than OK in my book. Great show. I hope they do it again.

Wasn't Fatima the woman who served the raw lamb? I think it was lamb, anyway.

Gee, do you think he worked for Jean-Georges? I was going to reach through the screen and slap him if he mentioned that one more time. And their overall arrogance about having to compete against amateurs was pretty patronizing. I hope one of them beats Giorgio just on principle.

Calling Kaysia a water buffalo was a bit much even for Jason. She was never my favourite but he had some nerve. Like he's some prize. Let me guess. I bet Jason doesn't get laid much, to put it as crudely as he is.

How about John Oliver as a replacement? He was fantastic when he subbed for Jon Stewart and is currently very good on his HBO show.

Of course! Thank you :)

What was the first name Sam L said the cab driver rattled off for the "black triumvirate"? I listened to it three times and still couldn't get it.

There's another reason why the blind taste test is hard. All the cooked food is stone cold. An awful lot of our taste is really smell and cold food doesn't put out any vapors. So it's no surprise that turkey and chicken register as the same thing. Or parsnip and squash. All you have at that point to go on is texture.
