Food Network pet peeves

Racheal Ray referring to Extra-Virgin Olive Oil as "E-V-O-O". It's not cute, it's not funny, and it doesn't save you any time since you go ahead and explain that it stands for Extra Virgin Olive Oil every time anyhow. Please stop it.

Michael Chiarello juicing lemons with his mouth. Why in the hell they would do something like this on a cooking show is beyond me. Is this supposed to be dramatic? Add flare to his cooking? What's next, is he gonna crack nut shells with his ass?

Giada Delaurentis pronouncing Italian words. She can speak english just fine. But as soon as she hit's a word thats even remotely italian, she over-pronounces the hell out of it. My grandparents came off the boat from Italy, and they never spoke that goofy.

Ina Garten thinking she's the next Martha Stewart. She mimic's all of Martha Stewarts mannerisms so much it's almost scary. Even when she's announcing ingredients like Brandy, she pauses and says "...good Brandy" with a pretentious grin. You know she's sitting at home masturbating to issues of Martha Stewart Living...

Tyler Florence's gay undertones. Could he possibly act any less interested in the women they keep pairing him up with? It's never gonna happen, so stop entertaining the idea. He's just not that into you.

George Stella recommending dishes to loose weight, while he himself is gaining it. He's kind of shooting himself in the foot isn't he? With Atkins going bankrupt, that's probabbly the final nail in the coffin for this show.

Sandra Lee's alchohol problem. She's probabbly taking all these shortcuts because she's in bed half the day recovering from a hangover. Can she make it through an episode without hitting the bottle?

My pet peeve is the audience at Emeril's show clapping and hollering whenever he adds garlic to something. Why do they do that?

Those were totally spot on!

You also can't forget Paula Deen looking like she is making lose to the fork of everything she eats!!! It makes me neasous.

Also Rachel Ray mentioning her mother and Grandfather Emmanual a BILLION times! Motor mouth Rachel, needs to be quiet!!

anyone who does this whether it's Italian words or Spanish words or whatever is flat out annoying to me.

I love this thread!!

I guess it gets on my nerves on $40 A DAY when Rachel Ray leaves these cheap ass tips for the servers. The meal is like $15 and she leaves a buck! I mean c'mon, who does that besides someone thats lookin' for an ass whoopin'? lol

I hated the videography style all the Food Network shows were doing 4 a while where they'd mix up medium or full shots with xtreme close-ups. It was very choppy and annoying.

I enjoy Rachael Ray much more ever since the invention of the Rachael Ray drinking games:

"30-Minute Meals" Drinking Game
Do a shot every time she says "E.V.O.O.", drops something or burns herself

"$40 a Day" Drinking Game
Drink everytime she takes a bite of something, rolls her eyes with pleasure and talks with her hands alot. Also drink whenever she drinks something alcoholic.

Guaranteed good time.
