Top Chef and the $10 family meal challenge.

[Imzadi]

My first thought -- $10 at Whole foods buys you a carrot and a bottle of water

I did too. Now, if they had said $10 at SuperWalmart, then they could have had a feast. It really wasn't realistic when you saw the chefs pulling stalks of leaves off the vegetables to get down to $10. One chef got to cut the whole bottom off of his and only pay for the leaves. I'm quite sure my Whole Foods will not let me do that.

Hulu. http://www.hulu.com/top-chef - They only seem to be putting up one episode at a time though, I think the last episode was 4, and they took it down when this one went up.

We get no reception without cable, so I've learned to find my tv streamed online.

Us too. Bravo shows are the hardest to find whole episodes. But I just watched this on youtube in a couple sections. I haven't really lost out on any TV shows I loved since getting rid of cable. Thank you high speed internet!

I have an african peanut soup recipe that has tomatoes in it... delicious! But of course proportions matter! I can't believe that these people didn't know that peanuts and tomatoes work well together in African dishes.

This may sound crazy, but I absolutely love to make a peanut butter and tomato sandwich when the tomatoes are ripe in the garden. The tomato is the "jelly" part, but much yummier, and better for me too! I guess that combo would work well in other recipes too!
