I’ve met him a few times. He’d show up at one of the groups cooking for the Firefighters during the CA wildfires, spend a few minutes looking in smokers, then go get his photo ops, then leave taking all the credit. He’s a giant DBag.

I like most of the cooking competitions on FC. But I’ve always found his personality insufferably grating, and never watch

Doesn’t look like he’s still 10 years old in his mind to me.

I know the face, never knew his name though. 😋

Ignore the haters "I've never been a half-full person. I'm very optimistic. I like to look at the positive sides of things.

Sounds like he's talking about you.......LOL!

I guess that makes you a better chef than him, right?

“He’s a giant DBag.”
Tuned into his show one time, only briefly. He sure seems like he is into himself. IMHO

Perhaps you should go masturbate to some re-runs of Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives! I stand by my observations.

He stopped in at a place near where I worked in Albuquerque. He was filming an opening shot when my buddies and I walked by. I got some good pictures of his ‘68 RS/SS.

Fieri managed to make something of himself without going to cooking or pastry school. He got a degree in hotel management instead. Most of the professionally trained/educated bakers and cooks look down on people like Fieri because they didn’t go to those schools. They look at them as sub-standard. It’s the snobbery, and class system within the food industry. Same thing with journalists who have a four year degree in journalism, but then snub journalists who didn’t attend journalism school. I remember how they attacked Drudge for not having a journalism degree when he first started his Drudge Report.

Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives. Sounds like the kind of places I like to eat in.

I prefer the fire of Ramsey. Just love the guy...he gets the best out of you....he’s certainly made a difference in my kitchen.

Interesting. The secret to his success is having a supportive father and mother. Everyone needs both. I give him credit for learning French at age 16. He was married in 1995 and won Next Food Star in 2005. Now he is happily married, has two sons, owns 63 restaurants and makes $20 million a year. Pretty good for a kid from Nixon’s home town, Whittier.

You probably remember him from back when he sold mufflers.

Well, I have to give him credit for movin’ on up now.

Love the food on his show. I don’t get fat from salivating over it either.
