    I love Bourdain, but his job is to critique food. Your industry isn't gonna be filled with cunty rocket scientists and you shouldn't expect it to be.

    Dial it down a notch.

    Im ok with both these guys but ill always be partial to Bourdain. Fieri getting all butthurt about this really makes him look gay. I mean, theres plenty to pop back at where AB is concerned. Either do that or keep quiet imo

    Is Boudains job to critique food? I see him more as a personality myself. He's had several jobs in the entertainment world over the years.

    No doubt, but that's one of those people you just kinda laugh and shake your head and move on about your day. It's not like it's gonna alter his persona or make him try to dress or act like less of a douche.

    Guy has his niche, Bourdain has his. You do you. Money over everything.

    I don't dislike guy, but he has to know he is the lowest common denominator in the food critic world, right? Except for maybe the man vs food guy.

    No, his actions, manner of dress, and his queer hairdo makes him look gay.

    Anyone can take a bunch of flavors and throw them into something hoping that they'll overwhelm the intended essence of the dish like Fieri does. It's not hard, it's not brilliant. It's overwhelming and it's shitty. It takes talent to be able to use the right amount of something to accentuate and enhance the flavor of the dish.

    Team Bourdain checking in.

    I would like to schoolyard both of them but then I would want to go drink martinis and act like a sarcastic cunt with Bourdain.

    I think its silly to blast Guy because its not like he's out there presenting himself in a serious way. He was a small restaurant owner in Cali who got on TV because of his personality and became famous because of it. Why knock his hustle? Nobody's out here like 'man I need to find Guy's souffle recipe'.

    Both serve their purposes and enjoy each of their shows.

    Bourdain always takes shot at food network personalities so not sure why Fieri has his panties in a bunch.

    Link I posted was a fake menu some guy made because he bought the domain "guysamericankitchenandbar.com" before Fieri could

    Hobo Lobo Bordello Slam Jam
    We take 38 oz of super-saddened, Cheez-gutted wolf meat, lambast it with honey pickle wasabi and pile drive it into an Ed Hardy-designed bucket. Sprayed with Axe and finished with a demiglaze of thick & funky Mushroom Dribblins.

    Yea I remember that. Very fair to blast crappy food, it just seems disingenuous to me when we all know what he is. Don't think Bourdain needs to take it upon himself to convince the world Guy isn't a top level chef. That's just me though. I don't feel too bad for a millionaire for getting dissed by a food critic

    Making a random comment about fieri here and there is what he's doing. Not 'taking it upon himself to convince the world guy isn't a top level chef'

    Do you think he bought a bunch of ad time dedicated to bashing guy or something?

    He made some jokes, who gives a shit

    I actually enjoy both of their shows from time to time also. I'm not sure why there is a need for personal attacks. Both seem to be doing well, and should just let each other guy do their thing and shut up.
