Rep Power: 10 | Food Network Challenge
If you were in charge, what kind of competition would you like to see in the future on Food Network Challenge?

Rep Power: 10 | They use pastry chefs for the cake shows. Duff has been on there several times. I am not a big fan of those shows. The only thing that's exciting to be in the cake decorating ones is when they try and move it to the table and it crashes. It's like NASCAR for foodies. | |

I thought it would be neat if they did a military inspired cake contest, instead of the usual cute Disney birthday cake theme.

Rep Power: 2 | How about regional contest, on regional cooking. Like in the North East a clam bake, South East, what ever it is in N&S Carolina, Florida, since it has so many different influences, Southern, New Orleans, TexMexas, Northwest and southwestern do stuff like that with regional chefs from the area.

It would be something nice for the families to watch while they wait for their loved ones.  :tank2:
Then when a fleet returns for the Navy ... etc. | |

Rep Power: 10 | Shopping on a budget. Each competitor would get $50.00 and would have to make an incredible dinner for four in 3 hours or less. It couldn't be a fast food dinner, just a really elegant dinner and nothing from a box! (Sorry Aunt Sandy.)
