Ratings are based on the criteria categories.
Please name one person on this "panel of experts" responsible for creating the criteria and what their qualifications are as a judge. It's a silly prop for the show.
I believe the only panel of experts they'll have will be local tour guides that prevent them from doing something monumentally stupid. How can anyone believe that these people are simply dropped off into a location a million miles from home without any help from locals? It's my guess Danielle couldn't distinguish a cashew tree from a rose bush prior to the show, much less that they were even present in the area. After that, they had to tell her how to properly process them without harming herself or even others in camp.
I would have rather seen how Danielle managed that over the childish squabbling they offered instead...
Urushiol is the same chemical found in poison ivy, and it is present on the leaves of the cashew tree as well as in the raw cashew shell. Processing raw cashews can be a laborious and nightmarish ordeal, and people who work in cashew processing plants tend to exhibit greater allergies to cashew shells over time. There is a high incidence of skin rashes among people who either harvest or process raw cashews. Greater sensitivity to urushiol can lead to extreme allergic reaction when raw cashews are ingested, and anyone allergic to poison ivy could potentially have a fatal reaction to eating true raw cashews.
Cashew shell oil extracted from the shells is caustic and causes burns on the skin. The mucous membranes of the mouth and throat are severely affected when it comes into contact with shell oil or the irritating fumes emitted during roasting.They should have shown Danielle screaming and celebrating after a successful cashew roasting. I seriously doubt she had to endure the process at all.
How terrible is wisdom when it brings no profit to the wise

Great reply dude! You made exactly the point I was looking for. Because when you start thinking this show absolutely falls to pieces.
First thought you shouldn't have when you want to enjoy this show is; who made this? Second; this is television, Third; this is American television.
I think the third point is most important. Because it seems to me that the US media think Americans won't watch something interesting but only something exiting. Which I hope isn't true... But when I watch "some" channels' programming these days. All I see is producers who push desperate sad people to do more and more stupid, useless and rediculous crap for the sake of making bargain basement television.
I think this is one of the reasons people think Americans are idiots. Because this contrived antagonistic *beep* is like a blueprint for all of the sheit programmes that are supposedly about their lives...
