I could not agree with you analyses more thus far, Adam. I am happy that they started to show more of the judges’ discussion, that’s where it really gets interesting. Andrew has really started to rub me the wrong way though. When the judges discussed the mushiness of the loin, I assumed the Kleenex comment was referring to the texture of the inside of the breading/dough that had been fried, which happens pretty often once fried food sits and cools for a while (especially if all this nonsense about it being stored in ice holds water). I can’t imagine the meat itself tasting like wet tissue. However, rendering meat into such a consistency would surely be impressive, though disgusting. Anyway, just wanted to say kudos thus far, and thank you for giving me something to distract me from my divorce law memos each Monday. You must be having a blast with this. Keep it up!
Mr. Roberts,
I just perused your sliver of sheer genius with respect to the “Molecular Gastronomy” episode on TFN site and I cannot overstate the fact that, despite maybe having some otherwise positive attributes, you are an idiot devoid of empirical deduction and reason.
