And yes, most of the hosts are obnoxious twats. Lidia and Jacques on PBS are pretty great, even if Lidia seems like she's going to lose her shit and just start yelling at times. Martin Yan, who along with the Frugal Gourmet was a huge influence on my love of cooking, is still alright, kind of corny, but he makes good shit. Alton Brown is great as well, and non-live Emeril and Mario Batali, though kind of a dick, really knows his shit.
Fuck a bunch of Daisy Martinez though - maybe because I'm not a big fan of latin/carribean food, or maybe because she's fucking annoying as hell. I was never a fan of Tyler Florence, but I saw him pimping Applebee's on a commercial today so he's totally dead to me now. Rachael Ray I've only watched for like five minutes - the food was lazy and she annoyed the hell out of me. Bobby Flay can fucking choke on his honey and ancho chilis.
But what happened to Jamie Oliver? I was kind of impartial about the guy, but last time I had the Food Network he was all over the place, now he's been purged from the channel, like he never existed and some sort of 1984 rewriting of history covered it up.

Nigel Slater is my boy. I love the massive undercurrent of "If I wasn't abused as a child I couldn't cook this well" that runs throughout his shows.

I've never watched a Slater show. I like his writing a lot. He writes about food like I do when I write recipes out for friends (doing this is how I ever got to read him; a friend I wrote a recipe for said I reminded him of Slater), basically "put some more butter in, it's fucking great".
I like Hugh Curly-Whittington and Gordon Ramsay. Jamie Oliver's grown on me over the years; he's still a fat-tongued cunt with no eyes, though.

I hate hate hate Rachael Ray but I think this idiotic
Does Dunkin’ Donuts really think its customers could mistake Rachael Ray for a terrorist sympathizer? The Canton-based company has abruptly canceled an ad in which the domestic diva wears a scarf that looks like a keffiyeh, a traditional headdress worn by Arab men.Some observers, including ultra-conservative Fox News commentator Michelle Malkin, were so incensed by the ad that there was even talk of a Dunkin’ Donuts boycott.‘‘The keffiyeh, for the clueless, is the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad,’’ Malkin yowls in her syndicated column.‘‘Popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos, the apparel has been mainstreamed by both ignorant and not-so-ignorant fashion designers, celebrities, and left-wing icons.’’The company at first pooh-poohed the complaints, claiming the black-and-white wrap was not a keffiyeh. But the right-wing drumbeat on the blogosphere continued and by yesterday, Dunkin’ Donuts decided it’d be easier just to yank the ad.Said the suits in a statement: ‘‘In a recent online ad, Rachael Ray is wearing a black-and-white silk scarf with a paisley design. It was selected by her stylist for the advertising shoot. Absolutely no symbolism was intended. However, given the possibility of misperception, we are no longer using the commercial.’’(In case you’re wondering, the stylist who selected the offending scarf was not Gretta Enterprises boss Gretchen Monahan, who appears on Ray’s TV show as a style consultant.)For her part, Malkin was pleased with Dunkin’s response: ‘‘It’s refreshing to see an American company show sensitivity to the concerns of Americans opposed to Islamic jihad and its apologists."
