Next food network star-- Jag's comments during XFM interview?

Susie Fogelson said she was ticked b/c Jag bashed FoodTV for not having a latino chef or latino based program...

well, he was right! he is right- there is no color on that network. there used to be on AA guy that did deserts, there used to be a daily show with rotating cooks and now they have what looks like a Latina with simply delicioso but since Ming Tsai left the network there has been no one of color- does anyone else see nothing but white on this network or am i being dramatic?

I love food tv and HER comment ticked me off b/c Jag said exactly what'd been thinking for the past 2 years.

and does anyone else thing that the show's website sucks?
it doesn't allow the audience to talk back- visit the Top Chef website on Bravo- where audience memebers can sound off- postively and negatively.

i'm beginning to hate that network more and more!

haniewski1956- the question wasn't about Jag's situation on NFNS- it was about his comment about not having any people of color on foodtv

I agree with you. They need more ethnic and cultural foods on there. I'm so tired of Italian food. There are others types of food besides American and Italian and I would love to learn more about them. They can maybe also have some some Vegetarian show (I'm a meat eater but I want to learn how to cook some vegetarian dishes).

Food Network definitely needs revamping on their shows. I want to see all types of Asian, Indian, Polish, Greek, Russian, etc. foods on their channel. I guess for that I have to watch Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmerman and Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations. The only decent cultural show they had was Iron Chef (the original) with Japanese cooking and various others. It was fun to watch and I got to see a variety of foods and cooking methods.

Food Network needs to change because they are losing their audience. (They can keep Alton Brown though because he's my hero lol!). You are not the only one out there who feels that way.
