I like him. His show on food chemistry was ace - thinking carefully about food.

I liked his perfect steak show. The lengths and depths he went to just to get every aspect exactly right.
And he ate steak in a strip club...

Formula for Heston shows:
1. Heston tries the existing food, says it's terrible.
2. Heston meets with the management, says he'll do fantastic things. Management filmed saying something slightly realistic, which is edited to make them look negative.
3. Heston makes something as extreme, unrealistic and stupid as he can.
4. People/customers/management try it and say its extreme, unrealistic and stupid. Edited to make them look negative. Worried looks all round, Heston expresses despair at the whole idea.
5. Heston comes up with realistic incremental improvements.
6. People/customers/managment try it and say they like it.
7. Roll credits.Steps 2-4 are called entertainment.

^ You forgot step 2.5, Heston uses liquid nitrogen to make ice-cream.......again and again and again

Hasn't the point sunk in that the bag the popcorn was supplied in cost more than the popcorn in it yet you get charged £4 a bag for it? I'd hazard a guess the bags got more nutrition which is the point Mr HB is trying to make and for that he gets flamed by some STW'ers lol.
The other point is when he checks his bank balance at the end of the week do you really really really think he gives a toss what you think? Indeed not - so switch over next time.Posted 1 year ago # -
pish!
He's a fantastic chef, innovative and exciting.Why stick to the same old things when you can do so much more?
i'd rather pay 3/4 quid for ben and jerry's ice cream/something much more exciting than popcorn!Posted 1 year ago # -
so switch over next time.
NO!
It would ruin all the fun of posting threads like this and getting replies like yours.

I made something as near as I could to his treacle tart recipe from his book In Search of Perfection, and I have to say it was very very good.
If you like him try reading McGee "On food and Cooking" which is where he gets a lot of his food science inspiration.

Can't remember what I watched on the other channel but something else the moment he tried his tricks ...

the other year I had one of his mushy pea, bacon slice and hazlenut and mint sauce ice creams
it was so tasty, all the ingredients combined in the mouth in a way that you can't describe - whilst everyone else sat on their sofas slag him off having not eaten his food
