Tasting Delicious Food

LikeToKnow — Sun, 27 Jun 2021 20:28:45 GMT

Why is it that all of the hosts especially David, act like the food on QVC is the best thing they have ever tasted. I have never in my whole life tasted something that was so good it would make me get up and dance around. I have ordered a few things from QVC and found them to be not as delicious far from it as the hosts make them out to be. Just my humble opinion!

So you'll buy it.

Because they are selling. No different than a car salesman hyping up a vehicle to get you to buy. Imagine if David ate something and just went "meh, it's ok". Wouldn't exactly be lighting up those phone lines, would it?

@LikeToKnow If your job was to get people to buy food, then you probably weren't very good at it were you?

I really think some people don't realize they are watching a Shopping Channel who's goal is to get their audience to shop.

Silly question; why do you think?

Because that's what they are paid to do. They are sales people.

Why do you even watch the hosts taste the food?

My tastes are my own--I look at all the food, read some reviews, and then order what I think I and my family might like.

I happen to be a very picky eater, but DH enjoys almost everything.

I personally, cannot stand soft cookies (Cheryl) or seasoned meat, so I will not order those things anymore.

I do not have the time to watch hosts taste everything. I have already ordered the same food items that I have ordered in the past and that we really like (wine, chocolate, pretzels, cakes, breads). I added one new item as well.

Again, peoples' tastebuds are quite different, and David seems to be a foodie who probably does really like most of what he tries. That would not be the job for me!!

Sharon Faetsch was the best. Her reaction to QVC Food was simply over-the-top. She was in heaven- figuratively not literally.

Uh, let's face it, David is never going to break out into the "Unhappy Dance ." If he does, I'll eat my shoe.

I don't understand why people buy food from TV period.

Because some of us are unable to get out and shop. I have recieved very good food from the Q.

Besides what others have said about selling, some of the food is excellent, at least the 10 or so different baked goodies and candies I ordered in the past.

I ordered my first main dish today, Beef Wellington, so I'll be able to comment on that after Christmas.

@kaydee50, because some people like to send treats to friends and family. Does anyone not enjoy getting surprise packages?

@LikeToKnow He rolls his eyes at everything he puts in and not in a good way, add to it spinning. I also have tried a couple of food items way in the past but not anymore. I think their prices for 99.9% of food items are outrageously expensive.

It is a technique to sell food. If someone spit it out and said ohhh this is awful . Would you buy it? What confuses me is that everything is always delicious. Isn't there anything those guys do not care for?

I think what I said has already been said. Sorry!

Call me crazy, but I love it when David does "The Happy Dance"

I'm a "Foodie" too, and when I taste something that's absolutely delicious, I break out in a little dance too - Although I'm usually seated, and in the privacy of my kitchen, and not being observed by millions of viewers (LOL)

Get it, Get it, Get it, David!!!
