TOC update. Starts the 18th of Feb Also, counting the lineup, East Coast is indeed 1 chef short, so that's likely gonna be an awkward edit

I'd be more interested in ans Eric/Jet show down. Either way tho I wanna see Jet in the finals. Edit: that being said, Shola also would be awesome

Eric always comes across as so serious, so it’s always nice when he breaks into a smile or is a little goofy. Alex was the same way for years on Chopped, like she’d heard of humour, but it wasn’t a thing she personally enjoyed. Since then she’s humanised a lot more and subsequently become one of my favourite people on FN. ![]()

Ethan Chlebowski continues to make food videos that are, like, actually useful. https://youtu.be/0YY7K7Xa5rE tldr “ethical” eggs taste pretty much the same as regular eggs, but they have a much richer yolk color and that might really influence your perception of taste

Same as Kenji’s conclusion from like 10 years ago. https://www.seriouseats.com/what-are-the-best-eggs Weirdly, I can’t find the original date for this one since Serious Eats got bought out and removed/hid the comments section and all

Wonder if it’s the feed that makes the yolk a different color? Like you said, the actual conditions don’t seem much different.

It’s 100% diet. Carotenoids cause orange yolks. Free range chickens are more likely to eat food that has them. You can make orange yolks through factory farming but most places are too cheap to source ingredients that would result in orange yolks

Eater has a pretty good breakdown of what terms actually mean: https://www.eater.com/2019/7/17/20696498/whats-the-difference-cage-free-free-range-pasture-raised-eggs quote:Cage-free, a term regulated by the USDA, means that the eggs come from hens that, put simply, aren’t caged: They can “freely roam a building, room, or enclosed area with unlimited access to food and fresh water during their production cycle, but [do] not have access to the outdoors.” Considering the conventional cage is 8 ½ by 11 inches, or the size of a piece of paper, this seems like a better lifestyle — but there are downsides, too. According to All About Eggs by Rachel Khong, cage-free facilities have more hen-on-hen violence and lower air quality than facilities that use cages.

i went looking to see if there were any "big" brands selling eggs from hens that are treated fairly well, and costco's organic offering is apparently humane. huh! plenty of others, too. https://certifiedhumane.org/decoding-carton-buy-clean-humane-eggs/ i had to write about the poultry cullings at egg layer facilities in rural iowa during the bird flu epidemic in 2014 (iirc) and that poo poo was harrowing, and being exposed to CAFO life in a place that is basically one big confined animal feeding operation

So you can find YouTube videos and poo poo that include "Just look at how much better eggs in Japan are than in the US!"

It's totally flipped where I am and brown eggs that are otherwise identical will sell for a small premium. I definitely remember when I was a kid white eggs were considered better.

I guess it might be regional? I think brown eggs might be more common in new england for some reason.

Yes but the press announcement of the contestants this year didn't mention him going as far as to have it so that the east bracket had one less chef. Now what I was talking about is they showed him in flashbacks winning previous TOC rounds which they coulda easily cut

Since the clips they showed were about Cinderella stories, I don't think you could wholly cut him out given Darnell was the Cinderella of ToC 1/2. But given it was only 10 seconds, they might have thought it also wasn't worth editing out. That's my best guess.
