1. I can't warm up to that guy

I don't hate him (say like Emeril, or Molto Mario, or Bobby Flay), but he's not a friend like Alton Brown, or Rachel, or Ina, or cute Paula Deen.

2. Ina is a goddess.

Michael, well he doesn't have to cook, just stand around looking good :) I do think he does have a nice way about him though.

3. I love his show.

I didn't at first, but he's grown on me. Plus his food looks fabulous. That never hurts!

4. yes, seems nice and gentle, but just leaves me kinda cold

Dunno why. I'd love to have his kitchen!

5. paula deen should kick his little yuppie ass.

she's da shizznit.

7. yeah, since she's a biker babe and all...

I reckon she COULD kick some a$$....

8. LOVE Paula Deen

She cracks me up with her Georgia accent!

The only hosts on the food network that I really cannot stand are Giada De Laurentiis (that heffa needs to eat something, stop with the phony smile, and not act like she is having an orgasm when she tastes her own cooking), Bobby Flay, and Wolfgang Puck. Bobby and Wolfgang are great cooks but I cannot handle the arrogance.

I do LOVE Alton Brown - science and cooking - quirky but fun combination!

9. sarah moulton howe seems constipated

6. I just can't warm up to the guy either.

Yes, he's handsome. But when he starts talking, I'm :boring:
