Giada vs Rachel Ray

Does anybody know how the rumors of them hating eachother started? I know it is most likely bull but I still am curious how that sort of thing would start. Have they ever even layed eyes on eachother outside of Holiday Specials?

They seem okay on the Holiday specials. I have not heard the rumor.

Where did you hear from? I've never heard it before either.

I've never heard that either.

This is a little off topic, but I have wondered what the star chefs/personalities think about each other. I do know that Bobby Flay wrote the forward for Tyler Florence's cookbook, so they've got to have a decent relationship. Once I was watching Barefoot Contessa, and heard Ina say something that I interpreted as a dig at Sandra Lee. She was setting her table and said something to the effect of, "I despise the word tablescape. It sounds so pretentious." Sandra Lee is the only person on Food Network I've ever heard use that term, so I've wondered about that ever since. I've also very rarely seen Ina participate in any events where other chefs/personalities are present or interact with them in any way.

Maybe she never leaves her house in the Hampton's. It sure is beautiful!

Alton pokes fun at Emeril every so often on his show but they seem to be friends when they appear together. Never anything nasty it's just a "BAM" here or there and once there was a pretend phone cell from him on Good Eats.

This is a show I would like to see Food Network cancel. I can't stand that fake smile and not so interesting recipes.

Food Guy....

You don't like Ina's show? I like it because it is more laid back. I find her variety of 'guests' interesting and always wonder 'who is coming over for dinner.'

There is something for everyone on FN. What is your favorite show?

I don't like Ina or Sandra Lee. Both can go and they can take Giada with them. Yes, I prefer the testosterone version of Food Network. Guy, Tyler, Robert, Bobby, ICA. The women generally just annoy me.

I like the men of FN too more than the females. However, I enjoy Ina. Sandra Lee can go whenever...those tablescapes leave no room for food.
