DAVID AND THE LOBSTER LADY

qvc chick — Mon, 15 Jul 2019 13:35:52 GMT

Question. something bothering me. We all know David tastes every food item that is presented, and usually does the happy dance!

Was watching yesterday, with the lady selling lobsters, and he never tasted the food! Not that I saw, anyway. HE Tastes everything!

Anyone notice this? It was very noticable!

He may be allergic to it or he just might not like it. No big deal!!!

I didn’t notice because I actually don’t care if he tastes everything. Why should he? In fact David probably needs to step away from a lot of that food for the sake of his waistline.

He might be allergic to shell fish or maybe he doesn't like fish...it's common.

Don’t know why he did not taste the lobster, but many people from the South do not like seafood?

@qvc chick: David has mentioned on previous shows he doesn't like seafood. There's one food you'll never see him eat: brussel sprouts.

I don't know why QVC puts these types of food items in his shows. David has been very honest in the past about the fact that he doesn't care for fish or seafood. Usually, they had Mary or more recently Stacey be the fish taster. I have seen him take a bite or two of salmon but even then you could tell he didn't care for it. I can't speak to the quality of the item he was presenting but I simply can't stand the smell or taste of fish and seafood so I feel for the guy.

I would not have thought about it even if I'd been watching.

I watch QVC pretty much the way I shop the supermarket. In the supermarket I ignore most of the aisles almost every time I shop. Same with the Q - only if I going to buy now or am planning a specific purchase do I tune in and really pay attention to what's on the screen or to what's being said.

You don't have to taste something to sell it. For example shoes. They don't always taste or wear shoes and sell them.

David and the Lobster Lady--sounds like a children's book.

Yes, I get it. He doesn't like Lobster. I do not like it either.

But then why sell the product in Davids show?? I think it is very noticible, since he tries everything, it looks funny when he doesnt taste it.

Does he say anything to the woman presenting?

@qvc chick. I’ve seen him not taste a few things in the past. I don’t think it’s a big deal. Who cares if he tastes or not. He will never say it’s terrible.

I didn't notice, but I did notice there was one product he tried and clearly wasn't sure he liked, the poor lady was waiting for a happy dance and didn't get one. But David is so talented he smoothed it over by saying something funny.

@greamy. They sure love their catfish and shrimp!

@greamy where did you get the idea that people from the South don't like seafood? I'm from the South and almost everyone I know loves seafood. There are some that are allergic, of course.

I'm from Ohio originally and I've never liked fish; especially lobster and shrimp. There are others I don't care for either. I may try one here-n-there but not very often. I will however eat the frozen salmon meal I get from Egg Harbor. I hadn't had this in a while and just received my order the other day.

I'm sure David has food he doesn't like and if he tastes something and finds he doesn't like it; he's a professional and will find some way to smooth things over. :-)

I think I recall way back when they sold those popular crab cakes years ago that he was allergic to crab and lobster. Not positive. I know he can eat shrimp.

I don't think this is such an amateur production.

Just because a food is being introduced to us doesn't mean it's new to the host.

I doubt they'd send their top seller out there to sell a new product (or an old favorite) without show prep time that includes:

food samples

product info

orientation time with the vendor.

Are you thinking happy dance is spontaneous?

I think it's a performance tool that relates to the producer's updates regarding the pre-set sales goals for that item.

@qvc chickMaybe he's allergic to lobster meat. Maybe he's allergic to lobster meat sold by female product reps. Maybe you've got too much time on your hands from watching cooking shows with David Venable and keeping track of what he eats or doesn't eat.
