Food for thought

Extensive research involving quickly flicking through the freely available terrestrial channels, found that 99.8% of Japanese television programmes are food related — whether creating, consuming or simply going cock-a-hoop over the stuff.

A sorry state of affairs that leaves those not exactly obsessed with food somewhat starved of entertainment, although thankfully there is the odd exception.

Cleverly combining cooking and scantily-clad young ladies, the far from comatose contestants have to try and keep track of how each tasty little dish is made, rather than greedily feasting their eyes on the far more fruitier offerings on display.

An approach that if embraced by all the channels would surely fail to go stale, the endless variations of recipes and raiment keeping customers more than happy.

Such a bold move perhaps also causing cooking fans to conjure up very different images whenever the name of famed TV chef Fanny Cradock is banded about.

    The link that led me to this story referred to scantily-clad cooks. All I could think about was near naked Mario Batali or Emeril Lagasse! eek! Giada de Laurentis–now that wouldn’t be so bad! 😉

    I live in a more conservative country. I wonder if it was the other way around. i.e. it is an adult channel and they are trying to get their stars to do kinky stuff to keep viewership going. Such things thrive on change.

    I wonder how her omelette turned out though

    Show’s name is Pusuma. Smap’s Kusanagi and the ever sleazy Yusuke Santamaria do what they do best.

    Brilliant – my two favorite hobbies combined into one.

    Why can’t all TV cooking programs be like this!
