Rachael Ray: Yay or Nay?

bangalkat · Aug 27th, 2008, 01:25 PM

I'm just curious to know: do you like Rachael Ray?

My mom and I watch her cooking shows sometimes

grayxie · Aug 27th, 2008, 01:26 PM

I used to like her when 30 min. meals came out, but since then I find her extremely annoying.

Regina07 · Aug 27th, 2008, 01:28 PM

I enjoy her 30-min meals show. It's basically endless variations of similar dishes (eg hamburgers or mashed potatoes) and that helps me be more creative.

Sweetpea83 · Aug 27th, 2008, 01:29 PM

I like her!

MzSHERRY · Aug 27th, 2008, 02:49 PM

I think she's adorable, but can also see how she could annoy some people. Regardless, she's good at what she does!

KristyDarling · Aug 27th, 2008, 03:23 PM

Hehe. Rachel Ray is VERY polarizing! I voted Nay.

1. Her recipes never take only 30 minutes. Try at least double that. They take Rachel only 30 minutes because she's MANIC and chops/stirs/moves at the speed of light.

2. She's way too chipper, hyper, and perky for me. I get tired just watching her.

I have a couple of her cookbooks, and while her recipes are usually pretty good, as KristyDarling points out, it's rare that they actually only take 30 minutes. Plus, she just really annoys me. I mean, YUM-O?? Who really says that?

lv-lover · Aug 27th, 2008, 06:33 PM

Despise her. I don't care for her style of cooking or her voice and sayings.

mimi-ann · Aug 27th, 2008, 07:04 PM

she is sort of cute, but I still voted Nay because she is always licking the corners of her mouth and THAT drives me nuts!

kcf68 · Aug 27th, 2008, 07:14 PM

I don't even know where some of her recipes come from??? The ingredients are hard to find. Lots of gravy recipes. Yucky....

Same here, when she first started she was cute. Now........is another story.

Nay. Her personality is way too obnoxious for me.

shasha17a · Aug 27th, 2008, 07:58 PM

I like her, but she does have some annoying traits. I was browsing one of her cookbooks that my mom has at home and I noticed that wherever she put down EVOO in a recipe, she always wrote (extra virgin olive oil) right after it. I mean whats the point of abbreveating a word if you're going to write it out right after?

BagLadie · Aug 27th, 2008, 08:13 PM

She exhausts me. Too chipper. I mean my god is she ever "off"??? She is cute but that gets old after a while.

lovemomo · Aug 27th, 2008, 08:42 PM

nope. she's annoying as heck. She needs to disappear.
