kirklandia December 19, 2019 Share December 19, 2019 Food Network may be as geographically unreliable as HGTV. Beavertail Lighthouse where they met up and McQuade's Marketplace where they did their shopping are both in Jamestown. The winter farmers market at Newport Vineyards (which closes at 1:00 - hmm...) and the highway where they parked their trucks on day two are both in Middletown. At least they were in Newport long enough to pick up their lobster on Long Wharf and reveal the winner at Marble House. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-5819646

mlp December 20, 2019 Share December 20, 2019 I was out Wednesday night so I taped the show then, yesterday morning, my DVR died and I had to go to Xfinity and get a new one which meant I lost everything on the old one. So I'm surprised to read that the lumpia truck lost because they seemed like the winners all along. I've never liked the cash advantages which seem somehow unfair. I'd rather see teams that win challenges get something that doesn't give them a huge cash lead like maybe extra money for shopping or something. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-5822055

Yeah No December 22, 2019 Share December 22, 2019 I really didn't care who won so I'm fine with the guys winning, but boy did those lumpias look great in this episode! Much better than "Big Stuff"'s offerings. As is often the case with these cooking competitions, focusing on strategy and game-play often results in a win even if the food isn't as good as the opposition's, and I think that's why Big Stuff won. It always bugs me but that's the nature of competition I guess. I've been to Newport many times at all times of the year except Winter. Every time I saw those poor contestants standing outside for their Tyler pep talk shivering I felt bad for them. Couldn't they get them some parkas? When they were having trouble finding a decent spot to sell anything I saw a Starbucks in the background - wouldn't that have been a better place to park? Here in New England, Starbucks is always crowded, especially in the cold weather. Of course there wasn't much action at some random Mexican restaurant in the middle of the day. That was weird, unless Starbucks wouldn't allow them to sit in the parking lot. A solid "eh" to this season overall, but at least I liked it better than the last one. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-5823746

seacliffsal December 23, 2019 Share December 23, 2019 I wish there weren't as many mini-challenges within the context of the overall competition. The award amounts ($300) are often the difference between staying and going home. And, to have $900 total in the finale just seemed like too much. I agree that the finale was won during the first day. Not only did Big Stuff open earlier, they consistently had more people in their line buying their food (the competitor even went to their line to try to sell her food). I may prefer the trucks being next to each other (which also happened a lot in the previous season) because at least location isn't a factor in a win/loss. Overall, I enjoyed this season. I liked seeing New England in the snow, liked the holiday theme, and liked a lot of the dishes that were created. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-5826393

Still, in both cases they won fair and square. And I'm fine with that. I do agree, though, with the poster that didn't like so many additional little challenges that potentially give a team the edge, but I'm sure the show didn't throw that one in there to ensure Big Stuff the win.

MajorWoody December 27, 2019 Share December 27, 2019 (edited) I spent two years stationed in the Philippines. That being said, lumpia is like a national dish there, and it is basically a thinner version of an egg roll/ spring roll, usually accompanied by a dipping sauce. They are usually very tasty. Also, adobo is delicious Filipino style, and I make it regularly at home these days. Although what they served on the truck did not look like traditional Filipino chicken adobo. I also don’t like the huge difference the challenges make, especially in a short competition. It isn’t fair to a team that is consistently good, to lose a single challenge and have that send them home. Finally, all the teams had one member yammering on about how the $50k was life changing. It always seemed like the person saying that was planning on keeping the entire pot of money, not sharing it with the team, or even considering the tax bite. Realistically, you would end up with mid to upper 30’s after taxes, and split three ways maybe $12-$14k a person if shared equally. In other words, just basically a little more than a single episode of Chopped, but you have to commit to a month or more for the contest. They really need to up the prize money, perhaps $25k for each team member.

I cannot figure out the taste of that combination. It's a straight turn off from the go. Knowing me, I'd be first in line to try it, though. I was disgusted by the Bachelor Kitchen(?) truck and was happy to see Tyler ream them for it. No chance of me ever eating anything they cook in the future, should the chance arise. Did they not know they were filming and cameras were going to see that mess? They are the only team I really dislike so far, but it is only episode one. The team who made the least amount of money won the challenge and stayed in. I know that is how the game is played, but it still annoys me. Even if it was my favorite team in the competition, I would still not like it.

Maverick March 21, 2020 Share March 21, 2020 The healthy team was a little late. Toast (mostly avocado) being trendy came a went a few years ago. The Bachelor truck has to be a plant by FN. There's no way they qualified to be on a cooking show, even one populated by amateurs. The only thing I'm trying to figure out is if FN hates Alton Brown more by forcing him to do Worst Cooks or Tyler more by dropping these skeevy bozos in his show. Having some greasy, shirtless buffoon wearing Mr. T gold chains is about as unappetizing as it gets. And that's without seeing what a pig sty they made of the truck. And let's not forget the stuffed animal he carried around like some douche bro kangaroo. That thing was dangling on the counter and in the food when he leaned out the window. Would you like dirty fuzz with your champagne?

Last season was enough for me plus FN has two new shows on right now that I like better - "Tournament of Champions" and "Vegas Chef Prizefight". 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-6020991
xaxat March 24, 2020 Share March 24, 2020 Tyler was right to call out the bros on their messy truck, but I think he actually went to easy on them. ONE OF THE BROS WAS STANDING IN THE TRUCK (HIS KITCHEN) WITHOUT A SHIRT! Can't wait for those guys to go home. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-6021055
Chyromaniac March 24, 2020 Share March 24, 2020 Bachelor guy: My brother and I are Greek from a very young age... Me: Isn’t that how that generally works??? I know he continued on- but for a moment that was a weird statement. And yeah, they suck. That beef sushi must have given Tyler some Worst Cooks flashbacks. Everything about those guys is off putting. I’m also not a huge fan of Team Fat Kid - there seems to be a trend of purposefully unhealthy food these days that rubs me the wrong way, and these guys feel like a part of it. I mean, a deep-fried, bacon wrapped pork chop stuffed with cheese and bacon? Seems like overkill. I don’t know- it just smacks of the same kind of willful ignorance that has permeated practically every topic of discussion. “Oh- I should watch my weight? Well why don’t I just mainline bacon grease instead?” The other trucks seem mostly fine- I enjoy sopes, so I’m kind of rooting for them. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-6021296
screengem March 26, 2020 Share March 26, 2020 Crystal’s Comfort Food mentioned their prices ever so briefly during day 1 selling. I believe they were offering 4 menu items for 8 dollars each. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-6026642
BusyOctober March 27, 2020 Share March 27, 2020 This is the first season I’ve watched. After seeing the obnoxious “personalities” in Ep 1, I can say this will be my last. The Mystikka loudmouth and the Slob Bro’s were just so damn annoying. Their food didn’t look great either. I don’t get the toast people. At all. I guess I’m not clear on Lunch Ladies either. Maybe I am either too stupid or too uninterested in food trucks to watch this. Peace out.

I think it's supposed to be kind of a play on words, but it's a lame one. They are lunch ladies at a school in Martha's Vineyard. I'm guessing a private school with a tuition that allows for real cooking in a smaller amount than places like our regular school system here in Podunk, Ohio. 2 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89649-the-great-food-truck-race-general-discussion/page/8/#findComment-6027586
LittleIggy March 27, 2020 Share March 27, 2020 (edited) I’m nosy so I want to know why the guy had to leave. Sorry that the Comfort Food team had to go.
