Description
On this week’s episode of Food Network Obsessed, host Jaymee Sire shares her thoughts on Food Network’s forecasted food trends for 2021 before diving into a conversation with Chopped Host, Ted Allen. Ted goes in-depth about the process of filming Chopped and how, after hundreds of episodes, the team has it down to a tight 10 hour day. Ted talks about the elusive Chopped basket and how, contrary to popular belief, it’s anything *but* random. Jaymee asks whether Ted prefers to be a host or a judge and how he stays at the top of his game in such a cut-throat industry. Ted also shares what it was like to be a part of the original cast of Queer Eye, his thoughts on the reboot, and the importance of LGBTQ+ representation in media. Finally, Ted describes his home kitchen and the weirdest ingredient in his fridge right now.
