Collectively, all three come across as the most pretentious assholes to judge a competitive reality show. They are FOOD SNOBS, and I HATE FOOD SNOBS. Alton Brown must have the patience of a saint. If I were in his shoes, I'd tell the judges to suck it.

While you can season food in plenty of other ways, salt has the unique quality of enhancing ingredients to make them taste more like themselves. Chocolate desserts almost always call for salt for that very reason. Proper seasoning is so essential that if a chef can't season their food properly it throws into question the rest of their skills.

But when I go out, I don't really care what's in it. I mean unless you're eating out every night of the week, shouldn't really matter too much. I sorta expect dining out to be more extravagant than what I'd cook for myself (though I'm not a huge fan of "heavier" dishes no matter what). But seriously how gross was all the sweat dripping from them when they were preparing their desserts (I think we're a week behind in Canada). I'm sure a fair few of those dishes got sweater on. YUCK.

I thought Costino was gone for sure. I like this show more than I ever thought I would. I have come to like Alton although I hated him at first. The two male judges are such snobbish looking pricks. I hate them.

All through the show I was saying to my wife "hasn't Costentino even SEEN Iron chef? It's the cameraman's JOB to get in his face and shoot what he's cooking!" There is no possible way for him to win. Symon is 3 in a row now right? Besh better get this act together. who IS that whiny immature elitist pretty boy judge? What an ass.

What an ass Perfect description of him (Andrew Knowlton) The other male judge Michael Ruhlman looks like and elitist professor type who is always smelling something bad. The female judge Donatella is by far the best. (& of course Alton)

In kitchen stadium they understand the dangers of being to close and they want you to succeed, in this episode all they wanted was the shot. that is why i got hostile. i told them from the beginning to give me space since the kitchen configuration was really bad, we had a very small pass way to get to equipment (like bowls, pans)and they were always blocking it and wouldn't move when we asked them . thats when the hostility came. now that 1/2 the country thinks i and a asshole as some one put it in another blog, life goes on.

I like the interactions between Besh and Symon; it's fun to watch them kid around with each other. Loved it when Besh ran past the opening door to the side (when they were delivering the carts), and when he came back he was smiling like a goofball. I really thought Cosentino was going to go last night after all his bitching at the camera people.

Salt is especially important if you do a lot of physical activity, as it's needed for proper electrolyte balance. Every year a number a people die from hypoatremia , a dangerous condition that arises from drinking too much water without replacing electrolytes lost from sweating. Salt in moderation can be a very good thing for your health.

Maybe guest one for each show? I would love to see Jeffery Steingarten as a guest judge. Just no Ted Allen, please. Michael Ruhlman is a friend of Anthony Bourdain's and has been on his show No Reservations a few times. I like his comments, unlike the little prick who hates Aaron Sanchez.

They're both from Cleveland and Ruhlman wrote quite a bit about Symon in his book "The Soul of a Chef". I'm surprised the Food Network didn't recluse him from judging for that reason.
