One of the things that Food Network inspires is rabid devotion for their celebrity chefs. I think the funniest thing is it also inspires ire for those same chefs. Here’s a listing of some of the chefs with their fan sites and the anti-fan sites for your reading pleasure. I will do another post later on some of the other celebrity chefs. (Keep in mind none of these views are mine, but are the views of other bloggers out in the sphere)
Giada De Laurentiis - funny thing, I couldn’t really find any anti-Giada sites, that’s not to say that there are detractors on the web, they just aren’t determined to convince others I guess. The major fan site for Giada is http://giadafan.blogspot.com/.
Paula Deen - I couldn’t really find a web presence for Paula Deen. There is no major anti-Paula site either. I did find a funny post on how Paula is out to kill America with butter. Here’s the link http://blog.foodienyc.com/2006/03/paula_deen_chug.html.
Alton Brown - Has a wide fan base including men and women. The major site that comes up when you look for his fan club is The Good Eats Fan Page at http://www.goodeatsfanpage.com/. Funny, but Alton detractors are hard to find.
Sandra Lee- Well, I have to say I was surprised, but there is a fan site for Sandra Lee. Here it is http://fansofsandra.proboards36.com/index.cgi. Sandra like Rachael really polarizes the people. Here’s the link to the Semi-Homemade Sux community - http://community.livejournal.com/semihomemadesux/.
Do you know of any other sites I have missed? Keep in mind these other sites do not reflect my views…
Thank you very much for the link! And yes, we are the major one. There does exist a Giada Message board, but you have to apply to be on it. And you must be a member to read the posts. But GiadaFan is free to the public!
