Here's how it would go:

Today's Secret Ingrediant: Carrots!

And now Iron Chef Turner has pulled out a bag. I can't tell YES YES It's Frozen Burritoes. He's putting them in the microwave now. And what's this why yes it's a salsbury steak and mashed potatoes TV dinner. He's stuck that in another microwave. He's now pulling out a couple of slice of white bread and looks like a jar of peanut butter and some grape jelly. And now he has a small bowl and what looks to be a box of Golden Grams. He's pouring it into the bowl and adding some milk. Now the tv dinner and the burritoes are done and he's garnishing them with carrots. He's now added carrots to the side of his PBJ sandwiches and his Bowl of Golden Grams!

That stuff takes years to master.

...Especially with a sensai like guy beating you over the shoulder with a bamboo stick.

I love the Japanese version of Iron Chef. The American version I tolerate, but the original ROCKS!.

Interesting Bri, I would eat what you serve, but the Iron Chefs? I don't know if I can handle what they cook. My poor stomach would be in knots.

I hear ya. The japanese show always has the crazy ingredients. I think every time I've watched the USA show, it's always potatoes, eggs...stuff I eat just about every day. Can't say that about rays or octopus or some of that other stuff...

Shark fin, squid ink stew/soup, jellyfish, sea cucumber, innards, lots of cod/salmon/crab roe. :eek:

I would NOT eat that. Fascinating to watch prepared though.

It's the same for a Japanese person when watching the Japanese version, though. Raw fish, octopus pizza, squid ink pasta, salmon roe, raw egg, and sea urchin are common items/ingredients on the menu depending on what restaurant you go to. Most Japanese people would probably gross out if the ingredient of the day was peanut butter, jalepenos, or rump roast, though.

The best part about ICA is Alton Brown. He does a great job.

Brown does my fav shows on Food Network.

My only problem with Iron Chef is when they have the live animals.
Just take the time to kill them as painlessly as possible.

I will never be an Iron Chef because, upon being presented with a sea cucumber, my first inclination is not to get out the ice cream maker.

I have to learn how to cook. I'm spending way too much money on tv dinners.

I could be a damn Platinum Chef if I ever have a kitchen that I can destroy in the process.

I'm with you there. I think my first inclination would be "ewwww! throw it back!".

Can you make pickles with sea cucumbers?

Watch the sodium content on TV dinners. That could mess you up.

I can't mess with sea cucumbers. I don't even know how to prepare some of those foods. On Iron Chef, I was scared of the vegetable dishes. :eek:

On ICA, I have a bias against raw meat, and I noticed sometimes its served. I could never be a judge. Also liver. Liver is a food I HATE. The chefs would be upset with me 'cause I wouldn't eat a damn thing.

He is great on every show he is on. He is a complete geek and I mean that in a good way.
