Chopped is one of my favorite shows to watch (aside from KUWTK, YAS) when I want to be entertained, and being someone who went to school for culinary arts, what they do fascinates me. But every time I watch, questions float around my head. Questions I need answered.

1. How do they not react at all when they see what's in the basket?

Goats brains? Liver? Stinky cheese? NO THANKS.

2. How do the judges even eat some of the things prepared?

Do you want your cow intestines medium? Or medium rare? How about none of the above?

3. How can you make a 5 star meal in 30 minutes?

I can't even boil pasta in 30 minutes soooo....(a watched pot never boils!)

4. Why aren't you breaking a sweat?

When I worked in a kitchen, I would sweat just turning the grill on, don't lie to me and say you don't sweat.

5. How do you know how to cook that if you've never seen it before?!

I would never know how to cook beef tongue but apparently I should know if I ever need to be on Chopped.

6. Why won't Ted stop using puns?

If you've ever seen the show, you'll know EXACTLY what I'm talking about.

7. Should I try this at home?

No.

8. Why does Aaron always need more spice?

We know you eat ghost peppers for breakfast but us normal people can't do that so relax.

9. Really Scott? Chest hair again?

Geez Louise and sweet cream cheese.

10. HOW COULD YOU FORGET A VITAL INGREDIENT?!

What do you mean you forgot your potato chip brulee?!

11. How did they do that?

I give them props, I probably couldn't do it!
