Are There Too Many Celebrity Chefs?

Tweet

A resounding "YES" from me! Years ago we would have the late, great Keith Floyd then - subsequently Delia Smith and Gary Rhodes..and before Keith there was Fanny Craddock..but I was too young to watch her...what do you think? Are there too many of them on our screens nowadays? I used to love Jamie Oliver when he first started out doing the "Naked Chef" on BBC2 but ever since then his ego has got the better of him and he's become - well, irritating, which is a shame. I bet he doesn't shop at Sainsbury's in real life! As for Gordon Ramsey and that bald guy who does weird stuff with food...I can't stand either of them. I believe Ramsey had an op to sort out the scars on his face after speaking to Simon Cowell who "advised" him to have it done in America so he'd look better on telly. Give me strength!! "Nick Griffin is hopeful that he can make appearances on light-hearted cookery shows, and made a tentative approach to the BBC when he appeared on Question Time last year, however his suggestion that he should host a show alongside Gregg Wallace and John Torode called Celebrity Master Race was swiftly rejected. Some of television’s already established chefs have been quick to condemn Griffin’s plans, with Jamie Oliver blasting “Bish, bash bosh! Unpukka Dib, dab, dob, wallop!” before apparently choking on his own tongue. Despite Oliver’s muffled words ringing in his ears, Griffin is determined to press ahead with his plans and has promised that the first 1000 copies of his book will come with a free How to prepare and cook a goose step by step guide. The book is scheduled to be released in the Autumn on Totalitarian, Autocratic, Single Party, National Socialist Dictatorship Books."
