It's not about the food itself, it's about how hotblooded everyone would be and how eating good food would be downright orgasmic.

A manga of the chickencheese alone thread would be a once in a decade hit.

The first 7 pages are a bunch of hot-blooded self proclaimed experts showing off their talent while some minor talents show up just to compete and then on page 8 DoomRoster (masquerading as a 'minor talent') loving annihilates them in one fell swoop and teaches them there is always more to learn. Then top class experts from other fields join the fight and show how their mastery of skills can also make a chickencheese.

At least the stakes have gone beyond Totsuki now and Central can't just be left well enough alone.

Vote shit sandwich or the shit sandwich gets it!
The only way I can see this going is Tsukasa winning, followed by either "you know what? You're not suited to cook under me after all" or "huh, your dish was interesting, and if you joined Central now it would only stifle your creativity, never mind the bet then".

The Elite Ten are supposed to be the best chefs around the school. The final bosses, so to speak. Soma winning against the first seat would absolutely kill the tension.

Souma will lose and then Erina will challenge the First Seat to release Souma (and possibly make him her assistant) with her servitude on the line.

I really doubt it'll be the second option there. This whole chapter was basically to show that Tsukasa doesn't care at all about cooking apart from his own, so there's no way he'll change sides so quickly and easily. My guess is Soma loses and the rest of the team need to rescue him from Central, either through cooking fights or through trading something equally valuable which is probably Erina.

ACTUALLY IT IS VERY GOOD THAT THE SHOW IS BAD AND ANYONE WHO DOESN'T REALIZE WHY THAT'S GOOD IS AN IDIOT. JUST ENJOY THE BAD SHOW INSTEAD OF THINKING.
Just step back for a second to consider that Azami's ultimate goal is so breathtakingly stupid it actually breaks the suspension of disbelief in a manga where people's clothing explodes when they eat tasty enough food.

Like, how is it possible none of the members of the Elite 10 noticed that Azami is a delusional maniac if he thinks he has the power to shut down all the local restaurants throughout the entire country because he got 5 teenagers to vote him in as the principal of a cooking high school (Totsuki isn't even a post-primary educational facility).

TBH I'm thinking a good part of them are actually doing it for the lulz. But, yeah, Azami is really dumb and the kids are basically being impressed by hard men doing hard things.

Japan is weird. Also, chefs don't need more than a high school education, just vocational/on-the-job training which school provides. Again, it's not just a cooking high school, it's the cooking high school.

My suspension of disbelief holds, but that's partially because the genre demands it.

It's actually more appropriate for a nouveau riche guy (like he is) since the upper class generally understands and reinforces the status quo (in this case, having dining that caters to everyone).

I think the important part of this Shokugeki is that it doesn't have any judges and therefore is not a real shokugeki and the bet is not actually on. Erina will be asked to judge the dishes and will foodgasm to both, resulting in a tie.
