    That man taught me at least 50% of what I know about food. I'm not talking about how to cook, but about food. Good Eats was amazing, because you don't walk away with a recipe. You walk away with insight.
    Any other show would teach you how to make hot chocolate, Altons show taught you how to make chocolate. Who invented chocolate. When it's best used. What to look for in quality. Why it's ideal for a hot dairy based beverage. It was like understanding ingredients, was *way* more important, than the recipes you use them in.
    +Edit. IDK how many of you know this, but IIRC Alton wasn't originally a huge foodie, but rather a theater/film-making nerd. So I guess cooking as a hobby, but *passion* for creating good television, was a perfect combination for inspiring a generation. You never know where life will take you, eh?

      He's never failed me.

      Well, Thomas Keller was a consultant on Ratatouille. He created the restaurant's menu in the movie. The titular dish is based on the recipe he uses at The French Laundry. The Pixar animators also visited the kitchen there & did some mise en place to make their animation more realistic. If you watch the movie on DVD, there is a bonus feature that includes him.
      I wonder what Alton's top 10 foodie movies are? His food-on-film list from 2016 had 6 movies. I agree w/ Eat Drink Man Woman being up there. It obviously pre-dated Ratatouille's release. I wonder if he'd put The Menu on his list? Bummed Tampopo wasn't on his list. Como Agua Para Chocolate/Like Water for Chocolate should also be a contender. I'd also consider Jiro Dreams of Sushi, but that's a documentary so maybe not subtle enough.

      ​​@@Kitty8791 Eat Drink Man Woman and Ratatouille are also favorites of mine. I agree that Tampopo should have also been on Alton's list. I primarily love its main storyline (which also features actor Ken Watanabe in his younger days). I don't care as much for most of the other short stories in the film.
      The Netflix series Samurai Gourmet is also worth watching -- a charming look at a newly retired man in Japan who finally has the time to rediscover and experience the foods from his past.

    can we talk about how Alton literally opened the bottle of hot sauce and took a swig of it?

    "It's hot, but it's not good." I have said this about so many sauces. 95% of all hot sauces are devoid of flavor.

      So many guests on hot ones have said that
      I think in fresh sauces or dishes they use raw chiles and other spices so it’s spicy and flavourful but with hot sauces they want them to have a decent shelf life so it’s just extract and vinegar to preserve it

    one of the best guests on your show in my opinion and i like that he thinks about his answers before actually answering. and i really do love that he arranged the sauces to his preferences. loved his show good eats and look forward to watching it more :D

    This was so fun, informative, and entertaining to watch due to Alton’s preferences, training, and personality! That follow through Sean of drinking the champagne after Alton was admirable-you really put yourself through what the interviewee does. So respectable! I’d love to see Daniel Wu on the show!
    PS. I love a food bald head 😄
