Top Chef watchers: how do you feel about the non-elimination last night?

Question

I think it was the right thing to do and perhaps next time there's a challenge like that, the show will keep nutritionists around on the day of the cooking.

I think Betty probably knew she shouldn't be making the change but probably was right about the smaller size...probably kept the meal under the total allowed calories.

Do you think Mia should've told Betty that she was the one who mentioned the cookies? Is Betty any more guilty than those who were using olive oil the way they normally would?

Answer 1

I thought the two teams up for elimination should have been eliminated if not in whole then at least in part. Two people made accusations that they would not back up. Mia was one of them. The pastry chef upset me because last week she was complaining about honesty and then she did not say anything about Mia to Betty. that was wrong. Now it looks to Betty like that guy turned her in. Of course, I was wondering why Betty lied to the Judges when they asked whose idea the pizza was. They had her on tape in the grocery store suggesting it to the guys. I think she was afraid to win for a third week but lets face it she did. Like I said mia and the guy talking about squeeze bottles should have been kicked out for not being willing to back up their allegations when the judges went to the chefs for answers. Betty screwed up but she made no attempt to hide it. She also forgot to mention that she used one less egg white. I would like to know what would happen to the numbers given the missing spenda and egg white and the added sugar. Would they have been under budget? I also think Mike should have been kicked out. His food stinks and his attitude stinks also.

Answer 2

I think that Mia should have told Betty what she said. She was a coward to not say what happened. Mia had all the confidence in the world to tell the judges but lost it all when she was in front of Betty and everyone else. I really like Betty and I think that judges do to and they wouldn't want to eliminate her based on "what the losing teams said" and you can't really prove it.

I'm glad though that no one went home because it wouldn't be fair to any of the contestants. But we will see who goes home next week!

Answer 3

i think of if Sara had no longer been so "out of it" the complete service, she would nonetheless be there. Howie of course comes from a background the place you consume an astounding sort of purple meat- he's from Miami and there are distinctive Cubans there- and everytime i bypass to a Cuban eating place, I order purple meat, whether its Lechon Asado, Macitas de Puerco Fritas, or a Cuban Sandwich or Medianoche. That being reported, Howie isn't a collection participant (yet neither replaced into Stephen in season a million or Marcel in season 2). yet, he has gained some stressful circumstances- and his is oftentimes interior the astounding (like the coldstone final evening). yet he seems hit or omit- he's the two the ultimate or the worst- and whilst he's interior the backside, he's often call calling and blaming (so is Hung)...I kinda want he had long gone residing house... I do think of the females have been being super toddlers approximately having to prepare dinner of their celebration clothing. only take the heels off and placed on an apron... did you spot Tre? He took off his intense-high quality shirt and cooked in his spouse-beater... recover from it women. Make it paintings.

Answer 4

It makes me a little angry. I definatly think Betty should have gone home, and not just because I like Marcel. She changed the order when it was not allowed, and she should have to suffer the consiquences. What if the adding that little bit of sugar put them over 500 calories, and they broke the rules. Mia should have said somthing to her, that's for sure.

Answer 5

I was surprised they didn't send Mike home, his attitude just stinks and it shows in his presentation - a cheetos shoved in to a mashed piece of Snickers?? C'mon, he wasn't even trying! I think Betty's mistake was an honest one, she knew the sugar added calories and made the cookies smaller to compensate. I think it's going to come down to between Betty and Cliff.
