Not everybody loves "Chef" Tony. He is not a chef -- he just plays one on television. He is a salesman who specializing in hawking kitchen wares. He may be a nice man, but I cannot get past the pretense of being a chef.

I saw "Chef" Tony receive his award as well, and was very touched by his reaction. He is a sweet man who is always gracious and kind. Yes, he's hawking kitchen wares, but this is a shopping channel. He's always thorough and demonstrates the items very well. I always enjoy watching him!

Re: Golden Spatula Awards - ITKWD Today

I don't care if he is a "chef" or not- I find him genuine, humble and kind- He does a fine job and his products perform as the are advertised- So what if he is a salesman?! I am salesman too, that doesn't make me a second class citizen, or disingenuous, or a liar...

It is so easy for some people to sit back in their living room chairs and criticize everyone and everything they see on their television screen- things are not so literal or as black and white in the real world...Its a SHOPPING channel! What do you expect to see, if not salespeople???!

Obviously no one is going to like every product or every sales rep or every host- Move on then! Its not Yelp here, were are not paid critics- It isn't hurting any viewers, physically or emotionally...why can't we all just enjoy the ride, instead of complaining all the time of how bumpy it is...?
