I like Bourdain, but isn’t he a chain smoker? What the heck is he talking about?

I love Bourdain’s show on Travel Channel. Of COURSE he’s going to make fun of the competition on the Food Network! I’m wondering how Sandra Lee tore into him. Her “boyfriend” is the Governor or New York, after all;-)

BTW he isn’t really a chef any more. He only eats now.

Okay it's Friday and we've had a rough week (and I've lost a ton of money). So what can be better than a good food fight?

I actually like Anthony Bourdain and he's got some talent as a writer. I read Kitchen Confidential and can recommend it as a good look into the Restaurant World. But the guy really is overbearing. He's a typical North Eastern Liberal who's full of himself. He's got a habit of bad mouthing a lot of people. Who in the world could find fault with a guy like Emeril Lagasse or Bobby Flay? They seem to be good guys. Bourdain trashes both, particularly Lagasse. Outrageous.

But having said that he's got a point of the unhealthy aspects of Paula Deen's cooking. I'm sure Deen's food is delicious but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who is trying to lose or not gain weight. It's also fantastically heavy on sugar, fat and cholesterol. It's a Cardiologist's Nightmare. So Bourdain has a minor point here. You shouldn't eat the likes of Deen's food (at least very often) if you want to stay healthy.

Paula Deen seems to have a nice personality and an entertaining show. Anthony Bourdain, on the other hand, is probably a snob.

You know, hubby & I can’t stand Paula Deen. I mean, she is a nice lady, but even hearing about her food is enough to give you a heart attack.

But Anthony Bourdain?

Insufferable!

For anyone who doesn’t like Bourdain, he got a generous dose of radiation while visiting Chernobyl in last week’s episode. BTW...that particular episode (featuring the Ukraine) was one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time.

I use to love the Anthony Bourdain until he did his SE Asia trip, you know, Viet Nam, Cambodia, Laos and blamed everything that happened to these people on the US ... DONE.

Bourdain’s shows are simply outstanding. Deen cannot make a cup of coffee without a stick of butter in it. A revealing episode - which remarkably made the final cut - showed one of her sons scolding her for his years of weight battles due to how unhealthy their meals were.

I recall him making some snobbish comments about Pres. Bush in one of his programs. I believe it is part of him trying to create an "edgy" personality.

He smokes, drinks , eats a lot of fatty food and looks down on anybody that is not from the east coast.

Best thing ever. Arrogant ex chef tries to defy the laws of physics.

Anthony Bourdain ATV Wipe-Out

On second thought maybe this was the best thing ever.
