Me or Gordon Ramsay

While we won't root for Rick 'Luxury Guacamole' Bayless tonight, we will pass along a great piece of Top Chef Masters fodder from the Rick Bayless fan club - Root4Rick.com.* Bohemia, Frontera and Bayless teamed up to give away salsa and Spike Mendelsohn's dignity with a well-timed Top Chef Masters survey today.

Results of note:

• 95% of respondents wouldn't choose Spike as a cooking partner
• 1 person offered a choice of "me or Gordon Ramsay" as possible guest judges (no word from Bravo yet on who has the edge - draw knives maybe?)
  
• 70% of people said the most challenging restriction when cooking is Gluten Free
• 30% of people don't know what Gluten Free means
• 1 respondent wrote "Other" in a write-anything-you-want box titled 'Other' (can you say dark horse?)
  

Great poll, if you have the time or are unemployed, take it here.

Less than four hours until the premiere...

*UPDATE 8/21: Root4Rick.com has apparently renamed itself (yes, including changing its url) to the less-catchy RickWon.com. In other news, Michael Chiarello's site has renamed itself OselandCanSuckIt.com.
