The Next Thing You Eat

Really?!? Be an adult and expand your vocabulary, so you can create something everyone can watch. Really interesting topic, which makes it even more sad. If it wasn't peppered with this guy's attempts to fit in with the cool crowd, I'm sure it would have been a great show. Unfortunately, I didn't make it past the first episode out of sheer annoyance.

Anyone who's ever worked in a professional kitchen knows the expletives fly all the time. Big deal. The content is far more important than a few swear words. I'd bet good money that the majority of wowsers here whining about the bad language voted for a president with yellow hair and a fake tan.

I had really high hopes for this series, but I couldn't make it past the first few minutes due to all the swearing. Is that really part of his branding? It's just impossible for me to take this guy seriously. Maybe David Chang is under the impression that swearing elevates his "street cred" among the target audience - young urban kids ('yukkies'). He sounds like a pre-teen trying to appear edgy and "tough" in front of older high school kids by dropping F-bombs as much as possible. In reality, peppering your language with expletives only results in having all your credibility and respectability thrown out the window. It might be an interesting series; too bad it panders to the gutter-mouth, trash talkin', ghetto 'hood mentality. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth and is wholly unappetizing. Skip it.

I was really excited for this show because I've been a big fan of David since Mind of a Chef. However the hipster/trendy chefs this show features is just cringy. The United States just honestly has such a toxic "foodie scene" which seems like some overblown fusion bubble.

I agree with the other review about his language. This does seem like an interesting topic but I couldn't get past the opening credits with all the swear words. Certainly not a family friendly show. Really? A food show that's TV-MA?
