My New Favorite Trainwreck

Worst Cooks in America.

I know it's not polite to stare, but I just can't look away. These people make me feel like a gourmet chef in comparison.


It's not that I can't cook, mind you. I have my specialties, and I can do a decent job on just about anything as long as I have a recipe to follow.

But my main point of comparison is Breen and Patrick, who have a much larger repertoire of specialties, who regularly make "simple" meals like taco night into gourmet fare, and who can Iron Chef their way out of any situation. Though they protest, I know my cooking is banal next to theirs.

But set me alongside the folks on this show and I've suddenly got the culinary powers of Mario Batali and Cat Cora rolled into one. :)
