Lexie said: when I was a child we used to eat peanut butter and sliced pickles on buttered toast.

When I was pregnant with my first child, I ate liverwurst, sweet pickle slices, sliced bananas, and peanut butter all together on a sandwich.
GROSS!!

Nessie, if you hold the liverwurst, that actually sounds pretty tasty.

Well, I liked bananas, but not on my sandwich. I like PB, but usually with honey and sometimes jam. I don't like sweet pickles, and I'm a vegetarian and won't eat liveranything.

I'll eat a tomato sandwich. Lettuce, tomato, cheese, maybe avocado. I'll eat a PB&H/J sandich. But I think I'll keep the two separate, thank you!

A popular salad when I was growing up was sliced banans with a glob of mayo topped with chopped peanuts - YUM!

Is it my imagination or have a lot of people lost interest in this show? There seems to be very few posts in comparison to the past.

I have missed several shows and just don't care enought to go back and watch them. Maybe I will catch a night when they catch up on a bunch of them.

I havent lost interest. However, there are no chefs that I can root for like in years past and no chefs that I really dislike as in years past.

Nobody has any charm or charisma, and lets face it the truly great chefs have that extra something called A PERSONALITY

They need to can whoever did the casting this year

Hey, TNT, did you ever have pear salad? Pear halves with a dollop of mayo on them and shredded cheese on top? I think its a southern thing because I had it growing up but nobody up here ever heard of it. I make it for myself, though.

I haven't lost interest in the show, but usually by this time I have a chef that I'm definitely rooting for and/or against and I don't have that this season. Like Maris said, these folks are lacking in the personality area.

I'm thinking Richard pretty much as it locked up; with Dale a close second. I just can't see it turning it otherwise.

I just watched all the episodes in the last week when I was sick in bed, not such a great time to watch a food show!

I love the show, but have been super busy traveling and with work. I'll post more later after this week of hell is over.

I am enjoying this season very much; actually I like it better without so much "drama". I especially enjoyed the kids helping last week with the healthy meals.

PS Just a possible heads up if anyone is taping...they keep advertising tonight's episode re weddings as "supersized"; I'll bet it runs over the hour time slot!

Tonight's epi is one hour, 15 minutes for those of you setting your VCRs.

Twinkie, well of course, I have had the pear salad you describe! My mom usually made it - the same way - with pineapple as my dad wasn't a huge pear fan!

I think there is a lot more drama this year than in years past. I cant remember seeing such venom spewing from chefts to each other in prior seasons, other than the venom towards the foam king.

Maris... the foam king. And the wine snob. And there were a few others who got into it with each other (the two guys last season, but they ended up resolving their diffs).

I think this season is very competitive though, and not in a nice way.

And that mayo thing? That is SO southern. I've never heard of dollops of mayo on anything unless it's mixed in to a salad (tuna salad, egg salad, and so on). Of course, we don't really do mayo here... if you dip your artichoke in anything, it's an aoli, not a mayo! :-)

Wedding wars with two teams: I loved the team of Richard (such a gentleman), Stephanie, Antonio (liking her better), and Andrew. This team won, with Richard deemed the winner of the group, but he shared his win with Stephanie because she did the beautiful tiered cake.

Team Two just dissolved under stress and discord. Unfortunately for those of us who don't like Lisa, she survived, because she did a tasty if "ugly" groom's cake. Nikki went, and I thought that was long past due (just because of talent, or lack thereof).

He didn't share it with her, he gave it to her. Even when she said let's share it, he said no. Seems like such a nice guy. <76>

I think Lisa survived in large part because she said nothing while the others blamed and complained... Nikki tried to dodge all responsibility in a really obvious and weak way and Dale & Spike acted really unprofessionally.

Texannie .. I was thinking that Lisa was falling asleep during judging and that's why she looked so bad. I could be wrong but that's what I thought.

I'm glad Nikki went but I'm still ready for Lisa to go!

Yayyy for Richard for being such a good guy!

Costa - Dollops of mayo are found on jello salads as well - whether containing fruit or veggies. Mayo is a food group of its own in the South!
