I watched part of the first episode and HATED IT! It's far too gimmicky and the science behind most of the verdicts was questionable at best. (Example: cooked shrimp harbors more bacteria than hard-shelled candy. Groundbreaking stuff.) AB (of whom I'm a great fan) might have done a better job, but I'm not sure even he could have saved FN from themselves on this one.

I don't know much about Ted Allen himself, other than his role on Queer Eye, but I agree with the other posters that his delivery is terrible. Enough with the barking already and just talk to us like we're adults!

I won't watch it again.

Agreed, Richard. Of course, the lack of anything groundbreaking isn't exactly a surprise, considering the author is the editor-in-chief of Men's Health. The entire published knowledge base of that magazine can be summed up in four words: "Great sex, awesome abs." Hardly innovative.

The sad thing is, they'll sell a billion of these books, because people will really want to know which ginormous-bacon-triple-cheeseburger-with-fries they can have, and still say they're "eating healthy"...
