Holy cow! They’re right!

Go to their videos here: https://www.youtube.com/c/bonappetit/videos

Go back to the beginning and see the race of all the people in the video snapshot for each one. Then go forward to now. You’ll notice a huge blank time from six months ago until, BOOM, one month ago. Then notice the race of the people in the video shapshot for each one.

It’s comical.

The kitchen is no place for monsters.

Ah, feeding the masses with talk on food equity.

I can see mass starvation is next.

The covid-BLM jugernaut is a major reshuffling of who owns what, an illegal legislative revolution right under our nose, often promoted by activist thug courts and their cops, sadly, only to see them being replaced by antifa stalinist shows.

They could have just replaced it with The Rasta Gourmet.

we can choose, for now, what we watch, what books we buy, what magazines we buy, what music we buy and what restaurants we frequent, whenever the masters decide we can go to a restaurant that is....

I like international cooking...I like learning new things...

but I know what I like and what I don't like....

and nobody is going to shove nasty people or their food at me...

Chef John on Food wishes is a very entertaining guy, down to earth, and informative....check him out...

.....”I know what I like and what I don't like”....

So does every algorithm out there...and they are wired to show you what choices you have.

The first video wasn’t about cooking. It featured no levity except that which was written into the carefully produced segment. The charm was gone. It was just an introductory video from the new leadership team: executive editor Sonia Chopra, global brand adviser chef Marcus Samuelsson, and editor-in-chief Dawn Davis.

The three new faces discussed terms such as “food inequity”

Well, who wouldn't want to sit down after a long day at work, kick back, and get beaten over the head with a good dose of guilt trip. That's entertainment.

They destroyed themselves.

Should we feel sorry for them? No.

They chose to sell their identity and soul. They did that on their own free will.

PC = classless, lifeless, sexless and tasteless. But it makes mediocre managers and experts with degrees feel good about themselves. They should call in a consulting firm to help them. LOL

Are they alone? Nope. Ask the NFL if their numbers truly really came back after they went down the PC pandering road?

This is what happens when you are “led” (if you want to call it that), by spineless cowards that do not truly see the value in their people nor understand the identity of their business or values of their customers.

Question I have, do they have an overweight lesbian vegan cook yet? They need to make sure they have one of them too! Success is just about checking off PC issues, right? Let’s create a checklist on a spreadsheet and make sure we check them all off, then we’re bound to be successful!

I like Chef John. He has a good mix of domestic and international recipes that are easy to make and his off the wall commentary is refreshing on a cooking video.

COVID killed my DIL’s career. Staying at home has given her the chance to pursue various homestead activities. She started a sourdough culture and has kept it going for 8 months now. She sells a dozen sourdough loaves a week at a local market. Not much money in it but over time she made enough to buy my son a very nice smoker which they will both enjoy.

The once-lionized editor of Bon Appetit, Adam Rapoport, resigned June 8 following the release of a photo taken 16 years ago, reportedly showing him in “brownface” at a costume party. He denied he had altered his face color, but continued internal denunciation made his continued leadership impossible.

They did it to themselves. No sympathy. Actually, I like watching woke ideologues suffer without any idea why it's happening to them. I'm sure there must be a word for enjoying the suffering of others. Let me see... ah yes, the Germans have one because of course they would. The think of everything. Schadenfreude. That's the ticket!

The left. So inclusive. So diverse. So tolerant. But you better not cook anything outside you “skin color” because that would be racist. ALL black Americans are exactly the same so you can only host shows cooking hog maws, chitlins, and collard green. All Indians are exactly the same so nothing but curry shows for you. Chinese people are all exactly the same so you can only cook bats, cats, and dogs. Japanese are all exactly the same so nothing but sushi for you. And all you white people... You are all racist and shall do no cooking at all. Just sit down and shut up and enjoy the cultural diversity.

I was getting a very nice sourdough and marble rye from the local Super One in Tx.
I was so impressed I asked who baked it, and they brought out this young 30ish gal, I said “Are you married?”

I didn’t watch the Bon Appetite-but I used to watch PBS programming

I can’t now. It’s become the ‘wall to wall’ indoctrination station...night and day they are incessantly telling me how f’d up I AM... because I work for a living and speak proper English.

When I channel surf... I don’t even bother going there...it’s THAT predictable and obnoxious. Those birds only sing ONE note!!

TURNER is right behind them with their round the clock indoctrination ... telling ME what I MUST accept and appreciate, above all else. AS IF I cannot make that kind of personal assessment, or determine cultural preferences on my own. I blast right past THEM too, now

The food network has been WOKE for awhile. On their “contest” shows there must be rule that one contestant is a homosexual, and they must confirm that fact at least once by talking about their boyfriend or dedicating a creation to them.

Also, there must be at least one black on the show as well. The other slots can be randomly filled.

Madison Ave has become so WOKE that if an alien was watching our TV commercial they would think America was 75% minority with 25% homosexual.

I have cut my tv time to about two hours a night and those are recorded programs.
