You're right Gert, if you don't like the show/language turn the channel (you don't even have to get out of your chair to to do it these days).

I don't like foul language - so what does that say about me? - I don't like foul language!! Just because it has become common use doesn't make it acceptable.

Exactly right !  Most people are socially aware and modify their language to suit   but if they don't  we can choose to say something or walk away. Either will work.  We can choose to take offence at the word or the person or just ignore both.

There are a lot more serious things in this life to worry about.

Hope all is ok jen...

Dont like consistent foul language but a word here and there i find normal enough and doesnt bug me...watching a film however where every second word is foul swearing so to speak i find a waste of a film and pointless watching it... You can get your point across quite easily if you use your brain.. Like everything in life there is a middle. Ground.. A little bit of anything never hurt anyone :)

I'm not a fan of the man with the corrugated iron forehead, but if the app's good, I'll buy it.
I agree with you, Gert. Most often, I find that people who rarely swear make a huge impact when they do!! I very rarely swear out loud, but when I do, everyone stops what they're doing and comes to find out what's wrong... :D

Interesting discussion.  Made me realise that I haven't any of his cookbooks. Don't know why. Not the language that has put me off.  Must look next time I am in Readings.   Might look at the app.

I've watched the show on Fox and found it to be very good. I like the app too. A lot of very basic tips, but some good 'chefy' ones too.
