I'm favoring Justin in this case (even if he did come off as kind of smug about it). I'm not sure why it didn't occur to any of the green team to just yell out "DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXTRA LEMONGRASS!?!?" in the  cooking challenge.Edit: I knew I should've double-checked that.

I'm also on Justin's side here. Why, when virtually everyone else in the tight quarters was using some, would you not even ask? It was mostly just hubris on Travis' part than anything else.

Hugh Acheson got in a fantastic burn on his blog. Hugh Acheson posted:Padma and Gail have brought their moms. Awwwww. The chefs get split down to groups allied to Gail and groups pro-Padma, and then the moms are tasked with speed shopping for all the ingredients and tools. Nobody grabs the foil-wrapped Hosea in the corner.

I really want to know how much the judges held Gleelet's dietary restrictions in disdain. I think Padma dropped an "I blame you" which she just laughed off, where I think Padma was kind of serious. And then "showing vegetarian food is more than just (pause) quinoa" (earlier in the episode they had her ask what is this, only to be told quinoa. So she apparently didn't know what it was, or the chefs had a deft enough touch to transform it.) Whatever the judges felt, I think it is obvious the chefs and editors held her in disdain. I loved the way it was edited to point out how dumb it all was (like the I like all vegetables, but not beets).

I don't get what was so bad about that, technically not liking beets mean you don't like all vegetables, but that is a petty complaint. That is simply the way most people speak. Also i assume that she told them more, but it was simply edited out.

I mean, they showed her making food comments that were more insightful that what we usually get from celebrity judges.

I didn't think I could like Nina more, but on top of being a great chef who didn't stand for Michael's poo poo, she goes and reveals the two people she got along with most were the gay guys. Definitely rooting for her. I think a woman is going to take the whole thing this year. LCK spoiler: Especially since Janine is also holding it down in LCK against the dudes. I don't know if she can defeat 9 or 10 more people and make the finale, but she definitely got eliminated too soon. It was also nice to see Bene's good-natured personality in the latest episode. Even Tom seemed charmed by him.

Nicholas is such a pill. Even when he's doing well he's insufferable. Good thing he is using this exposure as a springboard to get investors and public interest in his brand of dour philadephian eyerolling. But the episode was good. No gimmicks aside from the butter restriction.

Hugh Acheson is awesome. He seems to have a penile fascination with funnel cake, though. Hugh Acheson posted:Nicholas is frying what looks like dough snakes or breaded penises. Hugh Acheson posted:I am not the guy who loves savory veggies in dessert (aside from carrot cake), but this looks like one sweet garden with a fried dough thing next to it. One man’s funnel cake is another man’s churro is another man’s penis-shaped donut.
