I like IRON CHEF OK, I guess. It's so campy! But the food they come up with grosses me out half the time.

I agree to some degree, since they don't give much detail about exactly what they are doing, it's hard to replicate their good ideas as well. But at least you figure out what DOESN'T work so you don't repeat it at your dinner table.

Naw, it's the cultural divide. There's no way to dress up swallow's nest (made of swallow mucous) to make it appetizing to me. And some of their desserts...I'd cite some examples, but I blocked them out.
