The first time I heard that there was a show on the cooking channel called "Iron Chef" I made the natural assumption that it was a cook off using cast iron cookware. I should point out that all I knew was that it was a cooking show with a competitive flare, and had iron in the title. I ran with this assumption until I got cable tv at the house, and watched the show. The first one I saw was actually the original Japanese version, complete with the great voice overs. I thought that it was great, where else could I learn that you can make ice cream, using some fish as an ingredient, or that I. Japan they have peaches that cost $40.00 each (not per pound, per peach).
In today's fast paced highly competitive America, I think it is facts sting that we will collectively watch a tv show that ends with ______ your fired. All the while a sports team with a losing record can make it into the playoffs, and. We don't take score at the soccer games. Even the Academy Awards changed from the winner is, to the award goes to.... We live in a competitive country where people see for focus on the wrong competitions. I have seen parents go nuts when their child did not get enough playing time, or did not score in a game, all the while having little to no passion around their school work, grades, and the amount to television they watch.
If you want a true iron chef, go to one of the chuck wagon cook offs, one more competition, to watch, but at least you can taste the product, visit with the cooks, and vote for your favorite wagon.
