I reckon he lost a good deal of support when he posted sponsored unitaskers on youtube. At least he did with me. I miss the old Alton. He's too mean and snarky now.

He lost more when he turned political. You don't dump the Trump without consequences!

Alton Brown, he's from mainstream Jew TV, from the food network. Show was called Good Eats. Moved onto YT during COVID. He's retired but still posting some shorts and crap on social media.

If you have seen anyone talking cooking and food science, they are aping Alton Brown.

Kind of just an unimpressing old fart right now. He somehow went from having all the answers to shilling a countertop pizza oven. Good Eats was awesome, and during a tour after its initial run he simply answered the show has its run, but he had to come out of retirement with two new but worthless seasons.
>>
>>21651681
he got divorced and married that hag. the hag is woke, for sure. almost always turn off his vid when that creature shows up. she's awful.

The og run of Good Eats is Chef-John SSS tier. It is the best cooking show ever made, unless I'm forgetting something even more based.

if he's so great why doesnt he hav his own channel on pluto tv/quibi?

Look at that face
It's only a matter of time until he's outed as some sort of sexual degenerate

Cutlery can't be unitaskers because you just wash them off and use them again the next time you want to eat something

why does he hate rice cookers
>>
>>21652505
Because they are bulky, space consuming unitaskers with little utility in a western kitchen.

Seems likely. When Anthony Bourdain was in Atlanta, Alton took him to a strip joint whose main performer is an elderly, morbidly obese black woman who crushes PBR cans between her extremely saggy breasts.

I read his memoirs, Food For Thought, earlier this year and they were probably the most baffling, self-aggrandizing thing I've ever seen written by a celebrity. He spends the first 1/4 of the book talking about how he wishes he was Jewish (seriously, I'm not trolling) and how evil the white man is, the following 2/4s on bizarre personal anecdotes like his aunt shitting herself after being fed laxatives (again, not joking), and the final 1/4 seething about YouTube and AI. Good Eats is mentioned maybe five times in the entire thing, and only gets about 3 chapters dedicated to it.

But the thing that really got me about it, and what I think has killed Alton's popularity in the modern age, is that he truly has abandoned his sense of down-homey, good ol' boy charm in favour of being a "coastal elite" (which he describes himself as verbatim in the book). This is the same problem I've had with everything he's done after the original run of Good Eats ended – it's clear in the revival episodes, the remakes, and his YouTube stuff that he is not the same man he was 20 years ago. The divorce apparently sent him spiralling into depression and the path he took out of that involved becoming a woke Californian cuck-a-daisy. He seems to lack all self-awareness, which is bizarre, because that's what made Good Eats interesting in the first place.

I'm not surprised that popular opinion has turned against him. He's already set, so what the fuck does he care, but it really does sour what was a genuinely good show and surrounding culture. I'd like him to one day "wake up" and realize that he's completely sold his soul to the devil that he used to fight against, but I doubt he ever will.
>>

Wonder if he would have stayed normal if the first marriage didn't end.

>>21652570
it's kind of mind bending that food network came out with something so good so late in their downfall
Camp Cutthroat was his best show

She looks wretched.
A man of his status could easily score a woman half his age, which frankly should be the goal of any man.
Her eggs are on toast now, shes worthless as a female, and you dont get a wench for company, theyre shit company.

>Brown likes vintage watches and wore a different watch for every season of Good Eats; this was used in production to quickly identify which season a clip is from. Once, his watch broke midseason, and he continued to wear it for the rest of the season to maintain this system.
What utter horse shit. Why the fuck would they need to "quickly" identify between seasons?
>>

>Why the fuck would they need to "quickly" identify between seasons?
To identify the gender of his daughter, who kind of looked like a boy in the early seasons.

Such a shame. Doctors, mailmen, craftsmen, comedians, and now even the B-list celebrity chefs are compromised. The universality of universal rights is ruining cuisine and cooking.

fine dining is just made up rules so rich faggots could look down on poor people for being "gauche" but regular table manners aren't retarded you monkey
having 17 different spoons each of which is only used for a single dish is nothing like not chomping like a fucking cow chewing cud at the table

the good eats format as ahead of its time and influential as it was in the 00s has become what he originally was distinguishing himself against, stilted overproduced kitsch. he doesn't really have a place anymore outside of being a celebrity popping in here and there.

The irony is he was never a chef, wasn't a scientist, studied theatre arts and just had his staff of researchers write out all his food facts that he just parroted and pretended to have studied on his own.

I still use his pancake recipe, though.
>>
>>21653302
My short version: he was a popular, nerdy, slightly goofy TV food guy who helped get me into cooking as a kid--fast forward 20 years. and now he's a "sardonic" pseudo-intellectual twitter libtard who sold out for a blue checkmark.
>>
>>21654960
>The irony is he was never a chef, wasn't a scientist
That's fine, actually, if anything it probably made him more accessible. His qualities as a host were more important (in the old days, before he became gay). For comparison, remember that old kids show, Reading Rainbow? It was hosted by Levar Burton, and Levar doesn't even know how to read.

It was invented for a real purpose - to keep poors from trying to blend into wealthy social circles. Nowadays everyone can own 10 forks and eat 7 course meals so it's a much less relevant filter now. But wealthy people have developed many new ways to culturally filter lower classes from moving up. They all work the same way, poors can't follow the unspoken rules so they're instantly outed. And it's a good thing. You don't want poors coming into your community and you have your own ways of spotting them. It's just that, to people richer than you, you're one of the poors.
>>
>>21654003
Sorry, could have been clearer when writing that post. I meant that the entirety of Good Eats is only given a very, very short glance-over in a few chapters which comprise maybe 5% of the total book. Even Iron Chef America gets more. In fact, so does Quarantine Kitchen.

It's just a bizarre thing when you consider that Good Eats is what 99% of people know AB for. Don't read the book expecting any kind of retrospective on his most popular work.

Why do men always post their watches with their weapons?

Because watches are jewelry and jewelry is effeminate so they put their guns too because it helps their fragile masculinity, to remind you they have a penis and only insert them into vaginas. Just in case the watch throws you off.
