Maybe I would agree more about Sarah being let go if I didn't find Howie just so annoying with his refusal fo communicate with her at all.
Non-Fiction TV: I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own

Oh, I'm sure it's better, I just think it's funny that "you feel like you're cooking" is a selling point.
SYTYCD:
Did anyone else feel like they were being manipulated by the whole build up to Mia's dance?
I would have liked the dance better if I hadn't known what Mia intended.
The buildup almost ruined the dance altogether for me. And then when they kept hammering on about it afterwards was even worse. I had to consciously push that out of my mind in order to like the dance at all. Even so, I agree that there was not enough dancing. But I noticed that in several of the dances this time. Were the dances shorter? Or was it really just the choreography?
wouldn't the pasta reheat better in a pan than a microwave?
The key to reheating pasta in a microwave is to heat at lower temp for longer. Then it turns out just fine.
Were the dances shorter? Or was it really just the choreography?
I think it was a bit of both. The dances were shorter, so the ones with longer pauses or less continuous movement seemed even shorter.
I didn't love the sound of Tre and CJ's dish and agree that I would never call anything truffle "Mediterranean".
I don't understand why one ingredient makes it not mediterranean. It was parmesan, tomato and kale, which are all meditrranean. Do mediterranean people use ground turkey? I think that this issue is kind of specious. I did love the little pissing match that Collicchio and Rocco got into behind it, though.
So did I.
I'm not sure why truffles aren't mediterranean. It's a regional Italian ingredient and isn't that what the best of Italian cuisine does? Make excellent use of local ingredients?
Truffles are mostly found in France and Italy. I mean, it's like saying I can't use cheddar cheese because it's found in Wisconsin, not in DC.
Yeah, that was hilarious. DiSpirito was like, "I've dug up truffles in Italy!" Colicchio was all, "Not by the Mediterranean, you haven't."
