Re: Genius Dicer Presentation

[ Edited ]

When I read this thread yesterday then watched the video I did not know what I could say that would make a difference to people who see what I looked hard and long at and did not see -- so there's no point in trying.  I did watch other videos of his presentations and again, no long nails, no dirty nails.

 

It bothers me to see someone maligned like this.  He's such a nice guy.  He looked fine, imo, in fact, perfect.  Maybe those who saw something dirty saw a presentation that wasn't put up online?  There's no other explanation that makes any sense.

 

ETA:  I saw the comment that it was a different presentation than is online.  There's no reason for anyone to go on stage without having their nails checked.  Wonder what happened this time . . . it certainly is not his habit.

Re: Genius Dicer Presentation

@Free2be It's just my opinion.  This subject has come up in the past.  I'm voicing my opinion about the presentation.  Not maligning anyone.  Just stating the simple facts. Don't expect that everyone will have the same opinion, but i don't expect to be called old, fussy, and critical.

Chef Tony should cut his nails.  It takes away from the presentation.  If you're presenting food or items related with food, nails should be clean and trimmed.  The first thing I learned in Home Economics is to have clean hands and nails.  I realize it has nothing to do with the sale of the item, but it's just looks icky.


@makena     I saw a presentation by Chef Tony and the nail on his little finger was "noticeable"--I do not go looking for long fingernails on a man so when it is obvious, it is obvious!  Don't know when it aired (last couple days), but it was a live presentation, not a video.  Not sure if it was the dicer or the mandoline.....

I so agree....I was shocked at the length of his nails.  I would imagine it would be hard for a chef to cook with such long nails! 


I noticed his nails also.  I agree with your comments.
