Re: How much Holiday Gourmet can One Take?

Actually, I don't mind the Holiday Gourmet shows because I don't watch them.....just switch over when a commercial is playing on another show I'm watching. 

 

I can't stand some of the hosts on those shows anyway.

@Effie54  Right. We are ALL entitled to our opinions.


That's true....and that means no one should be ragging on the OP!

Am pretty tired of the food shows-----so don't watch much.  Seems like its the same ole same, ole stuff--- altho the round hot dogs kind of intrigued me---but I got over it---and a whole flipping day of popcorn made me scream after the 1st 5 minutes of going thru the history of popcorn. That show subject  needs to be quarantined and double masked for awhile.

I don't mind the food shows in moderation, I just to laugh at the ridiculously high prices. Most of the baked items can be made so much cheaper. 

I wonder if they will ever eat the food again, once the pandemic is controlled, hopefully it will be some day.

Hi, with QVC's delays in shipping and arrival...that sounds about right to get the order in time for Memorial Day 😉😄.....

 

Of course there's a plethora of other holidays too--

[ Edited ]

QVC may listen and respond to comments about shipping problems and who to pair with a certain vendor but profit is the bottom line for QVC not necessarily what posters here want. I imagine that the number of posters who write to QVC and complain about the schedule is a very small percentage of the QVC customer base. If the gourmet food shows weren't contributing to the sales of food they wouldn't be having 5 hours of these shows. I haven't watched a gourmet food show in years but then I haven't watched QVC since I turned it on last Sunday and they spent the day selling an expensive mattress in a box.
