Things You Can Stop Saying Every Fricken Time on 30MM...


Ok Rachael, I watch 30 Minute Meals and cook them sometimes and I admit, you know what you're doing and your food usually comes out good. However, you are on like episode one thousand and are a broken record at this point so I'm BEGGING you PLEASE:

1. Stop telling us that "Here's some great trivia, I bet you didn't know oregano means joy of the mountain" Every. Single. Time you use it. Yes, we know. Because you tell us every damn day.

2 Stop telling the story about how your husband John uses the word "verdant" to describe the flavor of cilantro, EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU USE CILANTRO. In fact, stop calling it verdant at all, we get it already.

3. What is the point of using the abbreviation "EVOO" if you then quickly say "extra virgin olive oil" right afterwards every time? Kinda defeats the purpose of abbreviating if you say the whole thing out in addition, and seeing as you use and mention the damn stuff five times in every ep, WE KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN BY "EVOO" ALREADY.

Thanks.

I don't watch that much and I admit I had to go look up verdant just to check. I knew verde is green in Spanish so that's what I figured it meant, yeah pretty much does. How the hell can something TASTE lush/green?

I agree wit hose though, especially the EVOO! She repeats stories and trivia ALL the freaking time. How about her obsession with nutmeg? "nutmeg is just that little somethin' that makes people go hmmmmm what IS that?!" shut the f-up nutmeg does not belong in everything!

i really hate when she says "okay kids" um wtf? i am 26 not 11. it bugs the F out of me.

some of the things she makes look awful (they might taste good but they look awful) and she will say "doesn't that look good?" um no. it doesn't.

Fact: Bears eat beets.

Trivia time is fun time! lol Although the looking good: So what?! I want to know if it tastes GOOD!

I miss her show! Although, I always got annoyed when she called olive oil, EVOO, or whatever. 
