Andrew Zimmern To Guest Judge On Chopped

Photo - Twitter
Chopped has been filming new episodes this week, and it looks like Andrew Zimmern will be a guest judge on an upcoming episode.  Here is a picture of Andrew with judges Aaron Sanchez and Geoffrey Zakarian.  Seems like a perfect match as Andrew hosts Bizarre Foods on the Travel Channel and there are always bizarre ingredients in Chopped baskets.  Plus, both the Travel Channel and the Food Network are owned by the same company.

Andrew tweeted about his experience: "Amazing day shooting Chopped. Thx To cast, contestants and crew for making me feel so comfortable. Should be a fun episode"

It is not known when this episode will air yet.

  2. So absolutely nothing in the basket should phase him.

  3. The Travel Channel and The Food Network are sister networks... Hence the similar titles: Restaurant Impossible; Hotel Impossible.... Not surprised at all... Zimmern also appeared on Triple D.

  4. He also hates walnuts..... I'm actually a big fan of his, I've watched 8 years of Bizarre Foods and Bizarre Foods America.

  5. Forgot to mention that Aaron Sanchez was on the San Francisco episode of Bizarre Foods...He was visiting his chef buddy Kevin Consentino in that food truck segment on McCoppin Street (my old neighborhood).

  6. HGTV is also part of the same family, which explains how Irvine got Taniya as a restaurant designer and the crossover between RI and Kitchen Cousins.
