Blind Items Revealed- Kindness

December 31, 2013

This Food Network mainstay who is probably the best part about the network donated and raised almost $1M last year to fund a cooking program in his hometown where underprivileged high school students can take classes after school and get a job if they want it or just give them something to do to stay out of trouble.

  11. Alton does the play by play on Iron Chef America and now he has his own show on the Food Network called Cutthroat Kitchen where contestants get money at the start and they can buy advantages or sabotage other players and whoever wins keeps what money they have left. They get $25,000 to start. He is very cool.

  17. Yay Alton, that's awesome. The Food Network sure has gone downhill. I used to watch for hours and I'm no cook. I never watch now.

  18. Emeril Lagasse has a school in NOLA that does this too. It's always a great thing when any big name gives back to their community. (Or anybody for that matter).
