Not a Banana
Iron Chef
Trust the Japanese to turn cooking into an epic battle for supremacy. Every week, a challenger, supposedly the best in his/her field, pit themselves against an Iron Chef (top chefs in each of their culinary fields, Japanese, Chinese, French and I believe Italian at some point) A 'battle' takes place, each chef using a key ingredient selected in secret by the overly flamboyant and ecstatic Chairman Kaga to produce a number of dishes to wow the judges. At the end aforementioned judges and Kaga decide who wins the battle.
Result. Best show ever. Agree?

Agree.
I love watching Iron Chef, with the exception of when they cook things that're still alive, like the turtle battle. I couldnt watch that. Oh and I try not to watch it when I have no food in the house, it just makes me sad xD.
My favorite is Iron Chef Japanese Morimoto, and Iron Chef French Sakai. I love them. I think my favorite battle ever was the mushroom battle, because I love mushrooms.

THEY COOKED LIVE TURTLES?!
*bans Iron Chef*
Signature by rubah. I think.
-
Yeah, it was jacked up. I was watching and Chairman Kaga announced turtles and I was ready to change it then, because I prefer to see meat as nothing but... ya know, not in animal form anymore. And then I see the turtles and they're <i>alive</i>. Ugh. Way worse then cooking the live lobsters.

The dishes itself are what make this show so awesome.
Just caught a glimpse of the copycat Iron Chef America. Not a bad clone. Looks just as entertaining, though I think I'd prefer watching the original a but more.
-
I dont like Iron Chef America that much, perhaps because of the Bobby Flay incident on normal Iron Chef. He made a complete ass out of himself.
-
Did he? xD
I'm not surprised. I think Bobby Flay is an arrogant ass, just from what he does and the way he presents himself. At least Tyler Florance (who looks a lot like Flay in my view) carries himself with a level head.
Speaking of which, It'd be awesome if he was featured on an Iron Chef episode (original or America). He has some real talent, though I doubt it'll happen. :/

In the first battle, which took place in Kitchen Stadium in Japan, Flay did his usual arrogant crap. At the end of the battle, he jumped up on the counter onto a cutting board. I think Morimoto was his opponent, whoever it was talked about the dishonor he'd commited. Then Flay proceeded to have his ass whooped by the Iron Chef, and when he lost he started complaining, saying that his side was inferior, that he'd burned himself, and basically inferring that the Iron Chef had cheated and they were all biased towards Morimoto.
They had a rematch in America, and Flay won, though I think it was just to shut him up.

Sounds better than Emiril to me. I've never seen so many people cheer for a weird Italian man who yells "Boom!" when he cooks. Next they'll have those 2 commentary guys.
"And Emiril cracks the egg! HE GETS IT IN THE BOWL! AND NO EXTRA SHELL!"
*cheer*
"Right you are, Mike."
