Nine Reasons Why I Loathe Guy Fieri
Categories: Indigestion

- His hair is a hybrid between a Dragonball Z character, a Huntington Beach bro, and a pineapple--sloppy in a seemingly effortless way. Despite this, Fieri's goatee is oh so immaculately precious...
- He might hit the diners and drive-ins, but where are the dives? Every episode features places packed with customers, and popularity does not a dive make. Fieri wouldn't know a true hole-in-the-wall if you dumped him in the middle of Little Saigon and spotted him the bánh and the mì.

- Despite this aversion to ethnics, Fieri had no problem guido-ing his name from the muy-WASPy Ferry.

When I invited him to hear us out on great places for his
show, he never responded. Instead, Fieri decided to ride his star locally with the
Orange County Register. Good luck with that!
- A recipe called No Can Beato This Taquito--hey, Guy? I hear the California Coalition for Immigration Reform needs a cook for their next anti-Mexican fundraiser...
