I like it. It is done in fun. I don't think any vendor is embarrassed or offended. I think some love the challenge. And what is life if you aren't constantly learning something new.

They all seem ready to play and appear game so far as I can see. No one seems uncomfortable. Maybe the discomfort is with you.

I don't mind the trivia.

I think most vendors don't seem to mind. The only one I feel minds a bit is Mark Charles. But that may be only in my head.

 AMEN!!!! David delights in making his guests and vendors look stupid when they can't answer one of his idiotic trivia questions. No one more so than Mark Charles. I wish to God Mark would turn the tables and ask David a question he'd never be able to answer. He HATES it when he is exposed as being culinary ignorant of any topic. He has probably issued an edict to everyone---"no one is to ask me a question that I don't know the answer to".

It's all in good fun.     I'm generally more surprised if they actually know it.

Come on! It's multiple choice! It's not like they actually have to come up with an original answer..I like to hear the answers, but I like trivia in general...

Turn about is fair play. What if the guests got to ask the questions of David?

Why not? I'm sure he'd be a good sport about it! It's just fun!


Make sure the answer has bacon or mac and cheese in it! I think David does a great job considering he has to keep us interested in kitchen items 6 to 8 hours every week. I think the trivia allows the vendors to let their personalities shine through instead of just the hard sell.
