Bill Buford tells the story of Food

Bill Buford tells the story of Food Network, a channel that Julia Child could never hope to appear on today.

Update: Accidental Hedonist on Food Network: "The network was no longer about making good food and understanding it, it became about using food to impress other people. Whether it was getting a meal out in 30 minutes, or making the perfect thanksgiving feast, the shows seemed to sell the idea of 'having' food knowledge, without actually having any."
