That's not what @AriAu meant; he/she meant that anyone on the winning team was safe, even if they lost their round.

really. It was barely more than open a package of smoked salmon and put it on a plate. Even people who can't boil water can do that.

I went down a rabbit hole to find out the difference between frozen custard and ice cream. First I learned that frozen custard has egg yolks in it while ice cream doesn't (but some ice cream has eggs). I thought "but every time I've watched a cooking competition and they have to make ice cream they say it's just frozen creme anglaise." So I guess when cheffy people make ice cream they are actually making frozen custard.

Based on the truncated quote above your comment, I thought "Betty was strangled???? WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN? Ha Ha. I think you might be right about that for Angie.

I think it happens in other cities as well. Why does Chicago get so much hate? (I don't live there but its crime rate per capita is not particularly high)

Are there two sets of sausages (normal human size and big)? I saw this in the video posted above

In the QF the link from the Finish DW product to flambé" was absolutely tortured. What does flambé" have to with doing dishes. Nothing.... I guess we are officially done with being afraid of covid. Savanah/Laura (I can't tell them apart) testing one of the booze bottles by mouth, and Kevin double dipping in the blender.... So I could see the sense of all the sausage runners outfits... except the Polish one. I guess there is no stereotypical polish costume. I'm glad that Kevin and not Dan left. That foam looked disgusting (as it ALWAYS does). So next week is restaurant week with 9 chefs??? How's that gonna work?

exactly!

I keep seeing different versions of an ad for realtor.com. It says something like "our app tells you if there is nuclear waste under the house" (exaggeration) Another voice says "don't all apps do that" The first voice says "Not really." The "Not really" sets off my BS meter. Sounds like something the lawyers made them put in since clearly some app somewhere might do the same thing.

I can't help but think of the infamous challenge at some ballpark where Jamie managed to avoid serving her disaster of a dish and lived to see another day.

I get why they have to do it, but it is so damn fake.

When this subject thread started, I immediately thought of that. "diarrhea 🎵"

I imagine so. I developed an interest in sourdough bread and googled some stuff. Now FB feeds me not only sourdough stuff but everything "prepper" in nature (canning, living off grid, etc etc), none of which I have any interest in. It's kind of fascinating culturally though, so my clicking on stuff just makes it worse. Sigh.

I could have sworn I saw he had a restaurant in Chicago. My bad.

I guess I'm an outlier because I thought Nikki's was a lot more creative that Alex's. I loved the idea of a pavlova. And his accent doesn't particularly impress me (duck). I think Steven is going to get the advantage. Definitely not Nikki.

Yeah, my husband and I are in the "golden bachelor" demographic and we have reached the point where we just roll our eyes at the stupid stuff people are willing to do.

He was the guy who used 30 ingredients when 12 would have sufficed?

I think Twitter et. al. know exactly who we are by cross-referencing whatever else: FB, google, probably what you watch on TV. They know you are female, your approximate income, and likely how much you weigh LOL.

I made that for dinner a few weeks ago. Yum! Thanks for all your comments.

Please know that people who watched The Bear (me included) did not understand "Chaos Cuisine" any better than anyone else. The term was a single mention in a two season series, and was not explained at the time. It was clearly some chefy shorthand between the two main characters. People are only mentioning the show because it explains who the guest judge was, and why the contestants knew who he was (besides him being a Chicago chef).

The description of chaos cuisine just above in HuffPo sounds like "creative home cook with leftovers" but somehow I don't think that's what Carmy and Sydney in The Bear were talking about, as a restaurant does more than "look in the fridge." But I confess, I still don't really understand. It sounds like fusion but fusion is so 80s so you can't call it that.....

If you have a half can left, what else are you going to do? (I know these ads are for stuff that you buy refrigerated and keep refrigerated)

This is a bit more about El Ideas

yeah who were they? I gathered that the blond (?) guy had a restaurant? Maybe where they were eating? And maybe that he does "chaos food" whatever that is? Who was the woman? I see someone found a chyron of her name. I gather she is some sort of food journalist. I imagine this showing won't add much to her following LOL.

It's funny, Danny got a significant talking head in this episode and my first thought was "who the hell is that?" I know he's had "some moments" so far, but his face was a complete forget for me. And I agree, Savannah and Laura get mixed up in my head. I guess I'm gonna root for Soo LOL.
