Cods....just so you know....our little kids now rate EVERYTHING they eat out of 10.

They role play the MKR program. All the freaking time.

The last time we all went out for dinner as a family...the kids gave the waiter a 2 out of 10 and a 3 out of 10 after being asked how their dinner was. And it was a great Thai restaurant. 

Now their ratings reflect how much food they'll eat on their plate.

I don't want to see our kids learn to be fussy and selective about food. I do want them to learn to eat all their dinner and be thankful for it.

I do remind them every now and then that millions of kids in the world are starving.

God knows what rating they'll give me tonight.

(I have 7 well marinaded lamb shanks and roast potatoes slow cooking in the oven atm...and the house smells lovely!)

MKR and Masterchef are the only 2 reality shows I watch.  I hate those celebrity jungle shows, the big brother type ones and all the stupid wedding ones they have on now.   ARGHHHHHHH

The boys knocked it out of the park last night and good for them!!!

I wonder what Mr Cranky Pants will come up with tonight???  His sister is a bitch.

my money is on the girls tonight.. the Asian couple have gone a bit sour..

I think (and hope) the Asian couple will win tonight.

I'd perhaps give "get me out of here" a go if the hosts played a less prominent role.

I would like to see the girls win too.  The blonde one is fun, and they need that, even after getting such a low score.  The Asian couple have gotten bitter and we have enough bitter people on these shows.

In the ad for the elimination they had Pete telling the loser that they had been eliminated and he moved his eyes to the left.  In another ad shot the girls were on his left and the Asian couple was on his right.

I hope it was done like that just to fool us.

no I didnt know that...I can see him throwing a fit if anyone sends anything back..I dont think he has the personality to fit in to a kitchen .. even his sister was shifting him around to stop him exploding.

I have gone off Pete as well anyway...he looks and sounds phony..

I can't believe someone would go on a cooking show like this who says they vomit when they eat fish.  It's more than obvious that seafood would be on the menus frequently.

there is always someone who claims they dont like an everyday food.....it never fails....if she walks out because she claims the fish makes her ill she should not be allowed to take part in the show..

it is total rubbish....some of them need to take a good look at themselves......I do hope karma pays them a visit..

as you say... who say things like fish makes me sick... ::) ::) then she couldnt quite put it into words what exactly makes her sick about fish...what a stoooopid women...

I used to be the same ... even a mouthful of fish would have me running to the toilet to vomit.

That all changed when I got to about 35ys of age, it stopped bothering me and now I actually enjoy eating fish

Although Murphy is once again playing games ... pre 35yrs of age I used to go fishing all the time and I almost always caught plenty of fish, just to give them away ... once I started eating them I've struggled to catch anything  :D :D :D :D

The girls didn't do too well last night either.  Such a shame.

Tonight might be a laugh.  All the ads imply they flop, and flop badly, but we know the ads are a sham and not indicative of the truth.

Then again, maybe the ones who have talked themselves up the most will be the ones going head to head in the elimination.  Will it be Alyse and Matt v Josh and Amy?

Cods, this may come as a surprise to you, and a bit of a  disappointment, but the show is scripted, rehearsed, directed, and HEAVILY edited so as to produce an end product that appeals to the viewing masses.

Discussing the show my daughter gave me the worst insult of a lefties life .

 

She said " Xxxxx (husband)  thinks Steve Price reminds him of you dad ....meaning grumpy old fart!"

it was a close run to the bottom last night and Josh and Amy one by 2pts...

why both teams claim they are such good cooks... when all bar their entrees.. were basically uneatable..

their meals even looked terrible...

they are two teams bragging how good they are.. ::) ::)

how can a man claiming to be all knowing about cooking FISH,,, then put the fish into his curry 28 minutes before serving.. ::) ::) ::) ::)

who does that?...

then I did smile when Alyse told us all how fish makes her vomit... even proving it on one episode..

and then they cooked FISH for entree.....and not one heave....a miracle... 8-)

But seriously cods, when compared with a REAL food contest like Master Chef, MKR comes off as an entertainment program and nothing more.
But that's OK if you like melodrama with your uncooked or unfinished food.

Nah.

Perfectly legal.

Food Standards Australia New Zealand say "there is no convincing evidence that MSG is a significant factor in causing systemic reactions resulting in severe illness or mortality".

Restaurants everywhere use it, and it's hidden in dozens of items you buy at Woolies and Coles.

The Asian supermarkets in my area sell it by the bag.

Not much melodrama in the actual episodes. Bit of a fizzer if it's what you're expecting or wanting to see (imo).....

....however, the carefully edited lead up ad's would have you believe otherwise.......

I did a bit of Googling and discovered that since 2012, MSG doesn't have to be declared in restaurant or takeaway food in Australia.

And, these are a few foods on the supermarket shelves that have MSG added:

Chicken Twisties
Cheese Twisties
Cheetos Cheese and Bacon Balls
Doritos Cheese Supreme
CC's Nacho Cheese
Cheezles Original Cheese
Arnott's Shapes Nacho Cheese
Smith's Cheese and Onion chips
Smith's Chicken chips
Smith's Barbecue chips
Smith's Salt and Vinegar chips
Homebrand BBQ flavoured rice crackers
Kraft Snackabouts cheese spread
Maggi chicken flavoured noodles
Maggi beef flavoured noodles
Fantastic Chicken and Corn noodles
Fantastic Chicken noodles
Suimin Chicken noodles
Soy sauce
Oyster sauce


MSG is found naturally in tomatoes and cheese, so I believe.

.I think I am not sure they were ordered to stop using it


I thought it was illegal to use it in any Australian restaurant



yes me too... but by the sound of this you can buy it still.....lets hope they tell us tonight..

this is used by a young couple of girls who as far as I know shouldnt even have heard of the stuff ::) ::)


I did a bit of Googling and discovered that since 2012, MSG doesn't have to be declared in restaurant or takeaway food in Australia.

And, these are a few foods on the supermarket shelves that have MSG added:

Chicken Twisties
Cheese Twisties
Cheetos Cheese and Bacon Balls
Doritos Cheese Supreme
CC's Nacho Cheese
Cheezles Original Cheese
Arnott's Shapes Nacho Cheese
Smith's Cheese and Onion chips
Smith's Chicken chips
Smith's Barbecue chips
Smith's Salt and Vinegar chips
Homebrand BBQ flavoured rice crackers
Kraft Snackabouts cheese spread
Maggi chicken flavoured noodles
Maggi beef flavoured noodles
Fantastic Chicken and Corn noodles
Fantastic Chicken noodles
Suimin Chicken noodles
Soy sauce
Oyster sauce


MSG is found naturally in tomatoes and cheese, so I believe.



lucky me I dont eat any of those things greg....

and not too sure how much of it your would ingest from a packet....

all I know is in the past when eaten in an italian/Asian restaurant and drunk wine.. its like I have been hit with a bus....I also end up with a raging thirst...its not a nice feeling......

My Kitchen Rules 2017: MKR drama set to explode with 'slut' slur

The drama on the My Kitchen Rules set is due to explode this week when this season's notorious trouble-maker labels one of his rivals a "slut".

The nine remaining teams will start converging on each other's homes this week to battle it out for a coveted spot in the MKR finals.
MKR 2017: What did Josh just say?

The Super Dinner Parties special promises to feature tears, break-ups and walk-outs. Vision: My Kitchen Rules, Channel Seven.

While Channel 7 has promised the "super dinner parties" will showcase some excellent cooking, it also appears the verbal tiffs between the contestants is about to head into overdrive.

Promos for Wednesday night's episode show Amy and Tyson serving up food at their instant restaurant.

"Here you are, seafood king," Amy says as she delivers Josh's meal.

"Thanks slut," he fires back.

Manu Feildel's jaw, understandably, hits the floor.

"Can I speak to both of you?" he asks as he pulls WA couple Josh and Amy aside. "I, personally, felt uncomfortable at this table the whole night."
Josh's foul mouth has pushed the boundaries in what appears to be for the sake of television, but this is a step too far ...

The judges and fellow contestants aren't the only ones angry at Josh. His partner Amy is later shown storming off into the night, with Channel 7 describing the drama as a "break-up".

"Babe, we can make it work, trust me," Josh says as he chases after her.

Whether or not the episode does culminate in a break-up remains to be seen. However, Josh and Amy have gone into hiding not long after MKR went to air and are not participating in media opportunities. 

Melbourne small business owner and former vegan Court previously hinted at Josh's potty-mouthed outburst when she suggested her feud with the seafood king was only just getting started.

"We just fight for the rest of the season," she said at the time. "My husband, because he's so calm, kept telling me to tap out – that it's getting ridiculous. But I don't take any poo."

Queensland contestant Della, meanwhile, told Fairfax Media she wasn't at all surprised to see Josh had been painted as a villain.

"When the camera is on Josh, you could see him getting off on it and giving the producers what they want," she said. "But Amy isn't like that. I found it really difficult [to watch], but we all have flaws."

My Kitchen Rules is currently locked in a ratings war with Channel 9's Married At First Sight, with the experimental dating show managing to knock MKR off its perch as the highest-rating television show in metropolitan areas several times over the past few weeks.

The episode they are touting will be shown on Wednesday as that is when Amy and Tyson have their home restaurant.

Josh is a m0ron.  He is uncontrolled and rude and always looks smug.   There is absolutely nothing for him to be smug about that I have seen so far.

I'm glad he's gone.  An arrogant pig.  The self proclaimed King of Seafood who can't cook fish and chips or marinate a crab.  He is, I think, a perfect example of the Dunning-Kruger Effect.

he didn't serve up a decent meal the whole series. Instead he relied on others screwing up to get through.

I hear his marriage didnt fare well either...

whatever did she see in him..

not such a good crowd this time round.. I think the winner will be two blokes...they seem to come through when the going gets tough... some on the contestants have had no personality at all..the brother and sister  erkkk.. I liked him better when he was turning green

Title: Re: is anyone watching MKR this year
Post by cods on Apr 27th, 2017 at 2:07pm
well thats my best bet gone....and its now the two most boring couples.. although I am sure they have fans..

just that brother and sister have no personality at all rather  sniffing pair if you like as if they are mixing with thedregs...

and mum an daughter I am sure cook beautifully

but why does it all look the same??>.thats not what a cooking show is meant to be is it???..

and to me using the pressure cooker for everything is just as bad as using a microwave....

its a shame one of my fav shows... I feel let down...

I guess Amy and Tyson will take it out though.

I gave up on MKR early. Masterchef used to have great demonstration sessions by the chefs but that has deteriorated. Will look but probably will switch off pretty quickly.

I'll watch, but would have preferred an Amy/Tyson V Tim/Kyle final.

Far, far from the best series of MKR this year.......won't be watching in future.

I agree havent enjoyed this years mob cant put my finger on it.. to me they all seem to cook the same thing  one all Asian another all Indian.. it must have been hard on the judges..lol.. serve em right.. I am looking forward to Master Chef  i do think they do more for their contestants   and I learn a bit as well...only a bit monk... not much I dont know...

Title: Re: is anyone watching MKR this year

I was hoping it would be between Tim/Kyle and Tyson/Amy too.     Unfortunately it is not so I hope Tyson and Amy win.

The Indian cooks are ok but that's all they can do.  Indian.   Same spices in every dish.   That's the problem with the Asian contestants too.   It's all too much the same and doesn't show any diversity in their capabilities.

yes bo thats what I say as well  very all the same   I was a bit annoyed at the use of pressure cookers  as well... they cant use microwaves yet can use a pressure cooker every time....I mean who cant cook using a pressure cooker... ::) ::).. I understand once in a while but not every cook....

to be honest I didnt really gel with any of the contestants this time round....Amy and Tyson I found very bland  and once he got control of himself he had no personality at all...give him his due he was a very good worker .. well done $250.000 not bad..

I mean really..   ::)
a contestant comes up to them with a golden ball, and one dick says oooh whats that?

Its a golden ball is the reply. Puhlease. ::)
