Katie Cavuto On NBC’s The Chopping Block

Yes, that was Next Food Network Star castoff Katie Cavuto on tonight’s episode of NBC’s The Chopping Block.
FNH readers are on the ball, and the witty one-liners were rolling into our inbox before the episode was even over. Jeff mailed us saying he only recognized her because her eyeballs freaked him out, while Twitter user Tagast joked that he was eagerly awaiting a typical Katie Cavuto comment about an antioxidant.
Katie had a whopping 3 seconds of camera time, which was just long enough for me to remember why she annoyed the hell out of me on NFNS, and for her to exuberantly exclaim that she “had the tuna” and “really liked its vibrant spring/summer flavors.”
I for one will sleep a little easier tonight with the knowledge that she enjoyed her vibrant tuna. Goodnight, FNH readers. And may your next tuna dish be as whimsical and appropriately seasonal as Katie’s was.

I didn’t see the episode, but the term “appropriately seasonal” made me laugh for at least 15 seconds. I’m just saying.
I SAW IT! I was using my laptop and knew it was her the second I heard her unmistakable voice. It’s a voice you dont ever forget.
Sleep well Jillian, all nestled in bed… may visions of vibrant tuna dance in your head…
Damn. You guys are fast. And good.
I wasn’t aware until now that Marty Feldman had a daughter.
The bigger question is, was this a total random thing, or did the Producers of The Chopping Block put out a cattle call for guests and _some people_ (katie I am looking at you) are on craigslist, and all other forms of media scouring for any opportunity to be on TV?
I am not familiar with the show, other then it was cancelled correct?
The show (apparently) brings in people who know food to comment on what these two restaurants that the teams put together serve. Or something like that.
Therefore, if they already knew that Katie had been on NFNS, but had been canned…it might have made sense for them to contact her. Because it wasn’t like they were going to get anybody better.
I have asked my U.S. Senator to introduce a bill to force her to wear sunglasses at all times.
oh, geez! Looks like she is really trying to milk 15 nanoseconds of fame!
Where do they find these NO TALENT HACKS?? My mother is a better CHEF than any of those people.
The instant I saw those bug eyes, I thought, “Jillian is gonna be ALL OVER that”. OK, so is it sufficiently creepy that you were my first thought?
@Syd – creepiness aside, it does oddly feel like we were somehow separated at birth.
I too am curious how she got on this show. She probably went to a casting call, “diners wanted to talk about foods for upcoming shitty nbc show” or something.
I simply refuse to believe someone sought her out.
I’m with Brad. Sunglasses 24/7 for this woman. And earplugs for everyone else. unbearable
The sad part is, someone, somewhere at the food network actually looked at her, listened to her, and thought she might be good for their network. Speaks volumes, no?
