TV: Friday Hot List
July 16 2009, Published 5:50 a.m. ET
There’s lots of fun, food-centric reality TV on tonight! Jaime Oliver’s new show to get American’s eating healthy and fight obesity kicks off on ABC. Jaime Oliver’s Food Revolution begins in Huntington, W.V. which is considered the unhealthiest city in America. Jaime shows the town how to cook with healthy ingredients and enjoy a more balanced lifestyle.
On the flip side of the food spectrum, Chef Gordon Ramsey is not a happy camper on Kitchen Nightmares after visiting Anna Vincanzo’s, a family run eatery in Boca Raton, Florida. When Chef Ramsey quickly discovers that owner (who doubles as the chef too) is anti-change -- he walks out! Maybe this will be the one time that Chef Ramsey can’t whip a restaurant into shape?
