    America's Test Kitchen, The Tasting Lab, a parody

    by Eric · This post may contain affiliate links, its one way we pay the bills. · 11 Comments

    Our friends at Ford Motor and the Fiestamovement ( who have provided us with a Ford Fiesta and funds to produce videos ) suggested we do a 2 minute take on our favorite TV show, and I'm a big fan of Chris Kimball, America's Test Kitchen, and Cook's Illustrated, so we had to do a parody of their Tasting Lab segment.

    Let me know below what you all think. thx. eric.

      I laughed! The over-the-top jabs at Chris Kimball and the foodies are right on the money without being too much. I'm just disappointed that the particular brand of baby swiss that you taste-tested isn't readily available here in my part of Texas.

      Oh Man! I did laugh out loud! That pup had a great drip of drool hanging from it's lip! Hopefully that pup wasn't blocked up for days!

      Great Going and we all Love Chris Kimball for his dry whit and hand motions.

      Eric,
      As the longtime (over 15 years) PR/Publicity Director at ATK, I must thank you for giving me -- and everyone at ATK -- the best laugh of the month! Actually Chris sent this to me! (he loves it!). I posted it on my Facebook page, and also sent it around to other folks at ATK and friends.
      I have three dogs myself (one part Lab) so I especially loved your dog's expressions! (and enthusiasm for cheese).
      Many thanks!

      Hysterical!!! I'm a huge fan of ATK and Chris Kimball, and this was absolutely perfect. "I have my own cheese-aging cave"... perfect!

      One critique: "Chris" needed a bow-tie!!
      Love it....

      I don't know the guy ,but you were Hysterical You and your lady make some very fine videos. I love the Labs. And your tasting lab was very good for the part. I don't think Ive laughed so hard before. I am sure if I heard Chris Kimbal it would have been even more funny. Thank you
