Every time I watch the Gourmet Food Shows I always wonder what happens to the TONS OF FOOD that is displayed during the presentations..
There's always enough to feed TONS OF PEOPLE..
Anyone out there who can answer this questions for me?
Thanks in advance..![]()

Hmm...guess my question is a 'sore spot' to some posters here..
Won't apologize for my question because it IS an important one..
Who needs to dump several cans of nuts to make a point??
Who needs dozens of steaks to make a point?
Anyways...thanks for taking the time to NOT answer my question..

The food is shared - to all who are hungry (stage help, producers, preppers, etc...) - even the guys that deliver Deer Park Water.
How do I know that?
Because my ex boyfriend used to deliver to the Q and he was always psyched on FOOD DAYS - he's be asked to take whatever he wanted with him when he made the large deliveries throughout the departments.
By the time he got home he wasn't hungry for dinner.
Have a good evening.

The vendors, crew, cast and office workers love to work the food shows.
They don't have to cook that day.

I'm not sure what happens to it all, but perhaps some of the staff eat it? Directors and cameramen and producers not to mention others.

An accurate answer would have to come from someone who works there and knows what they are talking about. We here who are reading can only guess. Besides, "tons" and "dozens" are significantly more than what we actually see with our own eyes. The probability is that the floor crew and any other staff on or about get to enjoy what was opened and should be used.

I never would have looked if not for this subject. I ordered the scallops.

@~Shilo~ Your question is not a sore spot; it's just been asked 5,000 times, with great regularity. The crew and guests in the studio eat it. No, they cant donate it. After sitting under hot lights for hours, it's not fit to eat. Somebody is sure to claim they became ill and sue QVC.
