OMG!!! Attention all Rachael Ray haters!!!
I was at the grocery store with the SO Sunday, and she shrieked and pointed at the magazine rack... THERE WAS A MAGAZINE ALL ABOUT RACHAEL RAY!!! She was on the cover with her demonic smile...

And, btw, Starbucks Anarchist -- we all know the TWO reasons why you like her, so your opinion of this is already suspect...

1. My best friend loves her show.
She's learning how to do more than boil water for boxed mac and cheese because of that show.

She says that Rachel is an idiot and that if Rachel can cook she can give it a shot. Believe me, that stir-fry hot dog crap would be an improvement over what B_ can make now!

2. Good point -- RR can give confidence to people who think they can't cook

6. We've been able to come up with some keepers from her books
There are just as many if not more "O.K., we won't be doing that recipe again" dishes, but I've been pleased enough with some of the results.

17. Do NOT try her alfredo sauce recipe
It separates no matter what you do.

20. I LIKE her... She's just a cute woman who grew up in a family restaurant
She probaby started cooking and taking orders when she was a child, and she has a LOT of confidence in what she does best...cook..

She's not a "foo-foo" cook..and never claims to be.. I have seen her on Dave Letterman's show and when he called her a chef, she bristled.. said.. "Hey, I'm just a girl who can cook..I'm a cook..not a chef"..

The food she cooks is not fancy, but it looks pretty tasty..

She cannot help that she turned out perky and cute.. Her husband probably likes that about her

4. And Brandi can't cook at all.
She calls me up when her in-laws are coming over for dinner and begs me to cook for her. I do it and then leave before they get there so they think that she did it.

Her signature dish is canned vegetable soup w/ instant rice. That is the extent of her cooking skills.

7. I think they should cancel her completely and give this guy his own show!


He'd be infinitely more entertaining :)

9. Did anyone catch the NEW show on Food Network?
the one with the housewife who *GASP* makes meals in 10 minutes and then puts them in plastic bags and freezes them for a quick meal for the family later in the week?

She used paper bags like the Anal Retentive Chef character on SNL did.

30 minute meals? Really what takes so long?

This young woman who does the behind the bash show, she sure likes to show off her tits, she doesn't have any to show off, but I guess she's proud of whats there.

15. I agree
My wife and I watch her quite a bit. She introduced us to Panettone French Toast this past Christmas (awesome), which we had a few too many times. Might be why I gained about ten pounds over the holidays.

16. Is that stuff GOOD OR WHAT!!!
I made it on Christmas Day... it has like eight million calories in it.

If I'm ever on Death Row for strangling tailgater, I swear I will ask for that for my last meal... it is so damned good!
