    Ok … you’ve done it again, I loved this post! I fully expect to see these for sale in the Food Network store. The ace of cakes one is priceless. Take that, Mary Alice.

  2. Ben says:

    you know, i think that is exactly how giada would have pronounced the word “ipod” if it were an italian word.

    i can just hear it now:
    iii–uhhhh—-poooohhhhhhddddd-eeeeeeeeeee
    with a little finger pinch thrown in for good measure

  3. Sasha says:

    Random annoyance: I hate the double I’s in Giada’s last name! Liked this post!

  4. Kfan_Radio says:

    Guy Fieri’s hair is somewhat annoying, how does he keep it so white? Ha…

  5. April March says:

    Too funny!! Again! My particular favorite is the Neely’s. Loved Ace of Cakes, too. Both right on. I’m surprised you didn’t come up with one for Paula Deen – like an ipod that dispenses butter or your favorite condiment like mayo or sour cream.

  6. Herbert Morrison says:

    You gals are just too funny. This site was so badly needed. As a life long FN viewer, I don’t know what to make of the descent they have made into the toilet, but this site certainly helps with the pain I feel .

    Are you comedy writers ? Your stuff is hilarious. You pick on the people that definitely deserve it.

    You writing style and op/ed angles reminds me of the gals over at http://www.gofugyourself.com

    Keep it coming.

  7. Kelly says:

    Ha ha! Great post and Sasha-I love that you are annoyed by the spelling of Giada’s last name.

  8. Cuisineboy1975 says:

    Surprised you didn’t do one for Big Daddy and Sunny. By the way, what happened to all of the Sunny snarks on the main page?

  9. Food Network Humor Staff says:

    Guys,
    We will be posting “More Limited Edition Food Network Ipods” down the road. I’d never neglect Paula Deen and my favorite, BIG DADDY!

    CuisineBoy, as for the Sunny “How’d THAT get on my plate” photos, I deleted them because after looking at them a little longer, I didn’t think they were all that funny. Trying to keep a high standard around here! More will be back in the future!

    I loved them all! I’m surprised there isn’t one of Ina that says: Ina Garten I-pod: Recipes that you can’t afford.

  11. Perry Neeham says:

    Hey I was just checking your bios. Boy , both you sisters are quite the hotties. Any chance we could hook up for a drink or lemme guess… you are both taken ?

    Keep up the good work though.

  12. Sam says:

    Oh my God! I thought I was the only one that thought the Neely’s needed to be on HBO with warnings. They are just gross. I like sex with my food or food with my sex sometimes as a special playtime, but those two are just nasty.

    I keep waiting for him to stick the power plug to the mixer in her crotch and say “Power baby!” *shudder*

    • So There says:

      No kidding, I just can’t watch the Neely’s without wanting to take a shower. They’re obnoxious.
      Plus Ina Garten when Geoffrey gets home on the
      weekends, she’s drooling on him. I’m waiting for
      an episode when she rips his clothes off!
      Ewwwwww gross! She creeps me out!

  13. TheScientist says:

    Heeyy! I have a Zune-HD touch! I love it; Don’t hate hahaha xD lol

  14. _Liz says:

    30% broken Zune parts, lol. don’t give her any ideas, though I wouldn’t mind seeing her take on a silicon valley tablescape for your next LAN party.

  15. ButtaRumCake says:

    *basslines

  16. Jackie says:

    Ina’s can only be found in specialty stores, and Melissa’s costs less than $10.

  17. Ray says:

    Very funny post, Jillian. Though, I think a Guy Ferry iPod would give me more than a headache. I’m thinking more overwhelming and crippling nausea. Possibly even the Black Death… or an STD.

  18. sandyscirroticliver says:

    My hosts iPod should have said “powered 70% by interferon and 30% by Stoli’s”. I’m just saying.

  19. Deaner says:

    I’d totally buy the Neely one. Because you just *can’t* go wrong with Barry…

    *wow-chikka-wow-wow-wow*…

  20. Steve says:

    I’d like an Alton Brown iPod that tells you how it works when you turn it on.

  21. foodnetworksnark says:

    the Guy Fieri iPod should come pre-loaded with wanna be gangsta songs and Larry the Cable Guy comedy specials…..

  22. James says:

    The Alton Brown iPod also runs the android OS.

  23. Sarina says:

    Giada is from Italy; it’s very unnatural to pronounce words in ways other than what you are used to . . . my first language was Italian too, though I’ve been here since babyhood. Saying Italan words (like marscapone) the Italian way is just what comes naturally for Giada, not pretention. I have to remember to say “bi-scott-ee instead of “bee-scoe-tee” to the coffee server so he knows what I mean. Sometimes I don’t remember or catch myself mid-word; it’s a chore and confusing for the brain, and I wouldn’t do it either, on the show, if I was Giada.

    Imagine being in a country where they ate hot dogs, and spelled it “hot dogs” but pronounced it “hut duggs.” It is really hard to make your brain remember that, and then make your mouth do it. It can be done, but it isn’t natural and takes more effort than you might imagine, no matter how many years go by – especially if you still have your family around, and say “hot dogs” at home.

    Not sure that you’re suggesting Giada’s being pretentious with her pronunciation. Just a guess on my part; but if so, I gotta disagree. If it was Rachael Ray or Guy Fieri, then I would agree.

  24. AltonFTW says:

    Oh God, the Ray Ray picture made me cry from laughter

  25. Curly Hair says:

    LOL at all of those, the Ray Ray one is good.
