Why does every host on QVC have to act like everything they eat/taste is so darn good and make that ah it’s so yummy face? I’m sure it’s just a ploy to get you to buy some of the food. Not everything can taste that good.

@LikeToKnow It's what they are paid to do. No biggie.

Because they are selling food.

Not to be snarky, but that's their job. It might be more honest to say " this is just so so, " but it might not be good for job security.

Question: Why does a QVC host do (X, Y, Z)

Answer: Because they are selling you something.

 

That is almost always the answer, no matter what the question is.

 

Their mission is to sell you things. Everything they do is in support of that mission.

@LikeToKnow.  Why would you even ask such a question?  Because they're trying to sell it of course.  A yucky face would generate few sales.  A happy dance blows the roof off sales.

I do have to wonder about people who buy when they see the " happy dance", I mean David seems like a pleasant person, but he's dancing so you'll press the order button.

Most foods are good, but the Happy Dance doesn't blow the roof off for me, it blows my mind ,and I immediately turn the show off.

@Kachina624   You took the words right out of my mouth! Do people actually know what they are watching? Everyone on the Q is a salesperson working to get you to spend your money. They are in business to make money.

Why would a host say this food is awful? I hate this blouse or these shoes are ugly?
