My husband and I like the show. We like Carla, Sandra and Damiano. We enjoy watching Jeff and Walter's antics. One thing I can't tolerate is one competitor taunting the others. During the gingerdeath house competition, one of the competitors kept saying things like, "My gingerbread is in the oven!" She kept jabbing at them. The others took it in stride, but some viewers didn't appreciate it.
I know that the final decision was practically a tie between the three bakers. I know it was a hard decision to make, but the judges in Halloween Wars called one group of bakers out for being unprofessional.
I am not a professional chef; I don't even own a bakery. I am just a medical secretary who blogs. I just hope the producers of Food Network actually pay attention to this message. Taunting, no matter how lighthearted is not to be tolerated. Contestants, not matter how brilliant they are, should be told that they lose points for it.
I want to commend the two runners up at this time and wish them well.
I also want to take this time to commend Carla Brown for the pep talk she gave to the one tall, brown contestant on Chopped Junior. I'm sure your encouragement is much more profound than you would imagine. Words are very important.
