"Everyone does not like everything". Honesty is the best policy.

If the customer likes that kind of food they'll buy it.

@Catastrophe  These are Salesmen we are talking about. Their job is to sell, not be honest no matter how they feel about something.

Actually, I can't recall any item presented (food or otherwise) where the host indicated a dislike of the item.

What I can't understand is why they take such a HUGE bite of the food?

 

After stuffing their mouths, they then try to talk, which is scary to me - I'm always so afraid that one of them will choke on live TV. Smiley Embarassed

If the food shows are so unappetizing, gross or "yucky", then why watch them? Pressing down on a meat product to let the juices spill out, is simply showing that the meat or cooking process doesn't produce dry meat. I don't watch QVC except to check out video of recently aired shows if they might interest me. It's a great way to ignore or avoid products, hosts or shows that you're not interested in or find to be "yucky".

Can't stand to watch them eating   The other night Shawn was stuffing her face and talking at the same time.  How gross is that.  The food show is so phoney have you ever heard any of them say they don't like the food?

      Agree!! I saw that... I don't mind the hosts eating, but it is the way they eat that is so unpleasant to watch.  Not only stuffing their faces, as if they hadn't eaten in days; but then talking while still chewing food!  Now that is disgusting!  And by the way, the HSN hosts do the same thing!

      Mom always said - it is extremely impolite and bad manners to talk when your mouth is full!!

What you should see at the beginning of preparing any food is washing of your hands.  I also like my area to stay clean so wipe up when needed.

The hosts and guests touching and squeezing the food doesn't bother me. That is how they can show the food if it is moist, creamy, juicy, etc.

 

On the other hand, if one host did all that touching and squeezing of the food and then handed it to another host to eat, I might puke.
