​@@jade7631you do understand they taste it before it was even served to them right.? They even explain this before final tasting and picking top 3.. plus Joe does help and gives really good cooking tips that actually help the contestants.. it's just overshadowed with how people like you only pick up on what he does during the final judgement.. if he's a bad judge then Ramsay won't invite him to judge over and over again.. I'm a massive MasterChef fan and Joe's tips and helpfulness rarely gets shown on the show but those rare instances you can see how he wants the amateur cooks to learn.. of course he's gonna be pissed if someone's not listening to advices and thinks what they're doing is correct and will wow the judges just to prove them right and the cooking is terrible.. I mean let me ask you this.. have you ever taught someone in the field of your expertise and they shrugged you off to the sides saying they know what they're doing just for them to prove you are right and they are stupid.? Irritating isn't it..? Well that's Joe for you.. Ramsay is also like that but he is much more constrained.. yet we see Ramsay can also be overboard like in Hells Kitchen where he teaches professional chefs what to do only for them to think they know better and fuck up..

[@jaehaha]

​@@A.jmmmm04I think on masterchef, other than taste, they also have to judge the food based on looks because they're trying to find the best homecooks from all of the US. So SOMETIMES simple isn't the answer. When you become the winner of masterchef you will open your own restaurant and so you have to be professional.

I disagree with most of the comments here; Joe knows food and he has eaten quite a lot around the world, and has been a restaurateur for a long time. He doesn't need to be a chef to judge food. If the food is bad, he pretty much calls it straight out and bluntly, yeah the tone and words are harsh but the contestants shouldn't take it personally. He doesn't attack a contestant unless this contestant is arrogant and went against the judges. Also, sometimes he does give certain warnings on how to avoid screwing up some parts or what to look out during a contestant's cook-off, and that's constructive.

[@abhainnxv1554]

Well if you want to make that same defence for what he said about Christine needing to be not even in the kitchen because she's blind-

[@TimeToGetAGoodLife]

Lmao no. 80% of his reviews are utterly unhelpful, and the majority of them are not only criticism, but completely unconstructive. Most of what he says amounts to "This is a terrible joke and you insult me" then he throws it away, sometimes before the other judges can even taste it. Joe does not know food, he isn't a chef, his palate and understanding of food as an art is equivalent to someone that just eats in fancy restaurants often and tries to analyze the food they make. Sometimes he'll literally throw food away before even tasting it. He doesn't need to be a chef to judge food, but he should be a chef to act like he understands what chefs do and like he has some intricate, complex, deep understanding of food as an art form and is capable of being a professional judge on a show with world-class chefs like Gordon Ramsay, this is just straight-up delusional tbh. Even on the rare occasions he gives constructive positivity (not criticism because that is pretty much never), it's usually just as basic as "the texture and flavor is nice good job". He also contradicts himself CONSTANTLY, flip-flopping on whether someone should play it safe or try to be creative, he can never make up his mind. Graham and Gordon are real qualified judges and give true advice. Graham is nice in what he does, Gordon is harsh but effective. They're mentors, good chefs, and people to respect in this medium. Joe is just the unbearable constantly angry and unimpressed boss everyone hates that rarely has anything good or nice to say and doesn't understand the people he's constantly judging or what they're doing. You can easily spot how absolutely, insanely hard Joe is trying to be the cool guy with high standards or some Gordon Ramsay type figure. He practically wants to own the show. He has a massive ego and it sometimes gives me second hand embarrassment seeing how much of a clown this dude is.
