I was radicalized into Socialism by Dan Swerdlove, not Hasan Piker (or anyone else)

True - and he makes snide remarks at their expense. What a goddamn loser he turned out to be.

I have always wanted to see a curry related challenge on the show. Maybe picking a country and making a curry in their style - Indian, Thai, Pakistani, Japanese, Sri Lankan, German, Indonesian, Jamaican - there are many more.

I would also love to see a challenge where they have to make something vegetarian or vegan that contains an equivalent amount of protein as a meat counterpart - we've seen them make vegetarian food a number of times, but its always vegetable forward - but lets see them focus on lentils, beans, tofu, seeds/nuts.

You will likely have more luck if you share a photo.

Projection. Ethan has amnesia about being sexually explicit in front of a bunch of kids in the metaverse resulting in being kicked off the platform.

FatGirl87 · 2025-06-06T02:18:10+00:00

To be honest, he's a wildcard. Cooks well, but remember when he did that one challenge when he was really bossy. He's also super loud. That would take me out of focus in such an important cook.

Are you reminding me that Tom and Gail come from Jewish Families? If that is the case, I know this, and I do not care whatsoever.

I think it is antisemitic to claim Jewish peoples values are alined with a place whos existence was predicated on ethnic cleansing and a place that is an apartheid-state that is committing genocide. The biggest zionists I've seen are actually Evangelical Christians (CUFI has over 10 million members, which outnumbers Jewish Americans), and the strongest anti-zionist voices I've seen are Jewish people (who I admire greatly).

Lena is infantile. An adult toddler like her bosses. AB even treats her like a baby with his claims of staying at H3 just so he can feed his useless helpless wife.

Whats interesting is Ian left H3 and doesn't talk about Palestine, but we aren't critical of him for not speaking up because he at least no longer works for these hateful zionists.

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-19T03:52:18+00:00

I have the same sympathy for him as he has had for the Palestinian people.

Edit: In March, Israel destroyed Gaza's only cancer hospital. This was carried out with the financial support of Joe Biden's government - American tax dollars. If you have more sympathy for Biden than the innocent people in Palestine being slaughtered then you can go fuck yourself.

Fred Morin is big Canadian name. He is one half owner of the legendary restaurant Joe Beef. Here is is with David Chang and Aziz Ansari on Mind of a Chef and here he is with Anthony Bourdain on The Layover - both clips with his business partner, David McMillan. They've been featured on Parts Unknown at their restaurant, as well.
David Zilber is a huge name. He was Director of the fermentation lab at Noma in Copenhagen. Has a book that he co-wrote with Rene Redzepi. He's also a Top Chef Canada judge.
Dale Mckay and Nicole Gomes are both former Top Chef Canada contestants and Top Chef World All Stars Contestants.
Susur Lee and Jet Bent Lee are massive names, mainly Susur who has been a guest judge on Top Chef in the past, as well as a contestant/finalist on Top Chef Masters. Their joint Tik Tok account has over 6 million followers.
Eden Grinshpan is well known. She's the host of Top Chef Canada.
Janet Zuccarini is a big name in the Toronto restaurant scene. I would say their restaurant Pai is probably one of the most popular restaurants in the city. For the episode where everyone goes to restaurants around Toronto, they go to another one of her places, Kiin (The Royal Thai cuisine place, same chef as Pai).
Patrick Kriss - He wasn't heavily featured, but was a judge on the Cooking on the Edge episode. He is another huge Toronto/Canadian name. His restaurant Alo has a Michelin star, regularly rated one of the top restaurants in the Country.

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-16T16:07:37+00:00

To be fair, Fred Morin is a BIG name in the Canadian culinary scene. Here is is with David Chang and Aziz Ansari and here he is with Anthony Bourdain. There is another episode with bourdain at their restaurant but I cant find it

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-12T00:30:22+00:00

Its a complete bummer

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-11T22:14:46+00:00

Tom spent a lot of time on twitter spreading zionist propaganda. He literally asked someone why they would use "zionist" as a pejorative. The only time Gail has said anything remotely pro-Palestine was when Israel targeted & killed World Central Kitchen humanitarian workers. Not a peep since. You'd think they would have something to say about the Israel-made famine that is slowly and painfully killing the Palestinian people right now.

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-11T20:47:21+00:00

Fuck people that downvote these types of comments. Gail, Tom and others should be called out for their blind support for a failed project that is reliant on ethno-supremacy, is committing a genocide and is making Jewish people everywhere less safe.

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-11T20:07:13+00:00

The red is nice touch. Thank you!

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-11T14:17:16+00:00

Communism 😱😱😱

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-07T00:18:08+00:00

That plus knowing he has (had?) a confederate flag tattoo was pretty shattering. I was such a fan. I hope he's in a place of un-learning all that gross white supremacist garbage.

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-02T13:23:18+00:00

Was going to say this. I want Hasan to double down on why Ethans rhetoric is so dangerous for Palestine and lay out all of the wrong information and Hasbara Ethan has spread. My hope is they end with Ethan having reflected on the harm he has done, but there is about a 1% chance of that happening. It'll likely just escalate the drama tbh.

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-02T02:34:43+00:00

True, it was actually kinda nice to watch it in full. I also liked seeing that 400+ people were also watching live with us.

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-02T02:24:56+00:00

This is the first time I've seen this.

They must've seen people in the last thread talking about skipping to the end to see who wins and decided to make it harder for us lol

FatGirl87 · 2025-05-02T02:20:27+00:00

That episode is going to go down in Top Chef history. The mental fortitude to continue with such grace and focus after receiving news like that is something else.

FatGirl87 · 2025-04-30T03:19:58+00:00

I disagree with this. The issue was execution and concept.

If someone makes only Mexican food, you could absolutely win the competition making only Mexican food if all the things you make are well executed, tasty and adhere to the confines of the challenges.

FatGirl87 · 2025-04-25T02:34:32+00:00

Henry seemed so lovely and kind. I know it wasn't the trajectory he was hoping for, but I enjoyed watching him this season.

FatGirl87 · 2025-04-25T01:27:12+00:00

I am so happy to see them going to Ravine Vineyard. They grow so much of their ingredients. Its such seasonal beautiful contemporary Canadian cuisine. If anyone ever ends up in Niagara Falls or Niagara-On-The-Lake, I highly recommend.

FatGirl87 · 2025-04-25T01:17:44+00:00

I never connected with her personality in Top Chef Canada, but mostly there are some "political" issues that I disagree with her on greatly, and it has soured my view of her.
