You still haven't given me the name of a better baker

After eating at our local 'Cajun Goop' place Yat's tonight I thought about how fucking easy it'd be to make a Cajun fast food place that didn't suck. Just throw that shit in some sort of container with a special spoon to minimize spilling and BOOM! Delicious goop for cheap that's easily mass produced.

Here are several

No mention of Martha there. Also pretty hard to have a conversation about best bakers without talking about Hans Nadler.

And I could go on, mentioning various places with huge reputations. But Martha Stewart is an industry, not a person. She's famous because of that, not because she's the best. She does fine, and she has good bakers and chefs who work for her, but her real strength is pulling a dining room together with an arrangement of fall leaves.

It's a good thing.

None of them have two shows on PBS.

lurkingdirk · May 29, 2014

Yes. The number of shows you have clearly indicates how great a chef you are. There have never been people who are just figureheads for the industry who have huge teams behind them making them look fantastic.

Let's look at Robert Irvine, for example. He's had several shows, but is a crap cook with a huge PR team.

Martha Stewart also has a line of paint, so she clearly is the best painter around. And she has a line of linens, so she's clearly the best bed maker around. It is all about her as a business, not her talents.

But this is a derail that is not worth having. So, Yay! Martha Stewart. She's awesome.

Speaking from experience, Robert Irvine is far from a "crap cook".

I certainly over stated that. He is not, however, so magnificent a cook that he is more deserving of having television shows than other chefs who have no shows. Saying someone must be magnificent because they have a show or two is kind of silly.

This might have been the first time I've ever trolled someone.

Please stop ruining this thread with your elitist baking talk. You have a whole thread to show off your monocles and tuxedos while discussing the merits of various high class chefs.

lurkingdirk · May 29, 2014

I hang my head in shame.

I thought I was above getting trolled. Eyashusa has been proved my superior. damn that guy.

The cake boss is better if you want to here him talk in a fake mobster accent while contracting diabetes. How he scored that wife I will never know. I woulddo things.

Best Cake Boss is Paul F. Tompkins version of him on the Comedy Bang Bang podcast.This is his first appearance in character.

Julia Child.

Although I like Martha Stewart for what she is, which is mostly shit I will never make because why but it can be a source of ideas. Kind of like Ina Garten.

Agreed, shallow and pedantic.

Yea, let's end this shitty real food talk in the fast food thread with a statement of pure fact: Jack in the Box tacos are better than any other fast food basic tacos. They are also cheaper. It is known.

Noodleface · May 30, 2014

Ever since the great 1993 E. coli breakout at Jack in the Box I have never been able to eat there again

JB Tacos are the weirdest tacos on the market. Taco Time on the other hand is some real premium shit.

I miss that sourdough burger from Jack in the Box. When I was in California I would eat that shit all the time.

I used to drive back and forth between Little Rock, AR and Baton Rouge, LA about twice a week for a year and a half. Nothing was better than pulling in to BR at 1am after being on the road for 7 hours and getting a tasty Jack in the Box fat nasty burger or other random special sandwich they were offering.

IDK man, Wendy's in unbeatable for me at the moment. Jack in the box is like bottom tier down there with Burger King, atleast here in WA.
