Coming from someone who has just filmed an episode as a GC, You are right about some of your information but not all of it.

As for other Chefs misinformation,they were at least a good read and not claiming to be in the know and have all the answers.

Am I reading correctly, that you were a guest chef?

What information that I presented was incorrect? I believe that most of the information in the thread that I deemed misinformation was not presented by working chefs, but I certainly will stand corrected if they, indeed, are working chefs and can provide valid attribution to their production knowledge of the TV show.

nolachef, the fact is that all GCs sign a very specific and detailed contract that delineates what they may discuss pre and post production. It's darn near a vow of silence.

Yes, you read correctly.

All I am saying is that all of your inside info is not correct.

Thats all. I won't go into detail as to which part isn't correct. I just found it amusing that you felt obliged to call a bunch of people (chefs or not) out for being misinformed. Fact is you are misinformed as well.

So I felt obliged to call you out.

Come on tell me you wouldn't do the same if you were me. I have read a lot of your old post and threads History tells me you would have chimed in also.

Have a nice day, I hope you've enjoyed this response I've prepared for you.

And I asked which item is incorrect.

If I am misinformed that I think it's incumbent on you to provide the correct information. The propogation of misinformation serves absolutely no one.

Obliged is derivative while connoting obligation. Your obligation, rather than "calling me out" is to clarify and educate; to provide factual information where there is hearsay. To the best of my knowledge, I provided correct information given to me by a member of Iron Chef America's original production team. You have provided no contrary information; only a verbal negation. Sorry, my friend, but it's weak.

I would have provided factual information in a manner which would have increased the knowledge base of this forum; yes, in an a manner expressing my own opinion. I simply don't think it's sufficient to say, "I know better," without providing prima facie evidence.
