She never had a “breakdown” in the previous ones, take it easy.

[@weaouw]

@@monsterkis Why is it so bad to say she had a breakdown? It might've not been that intense, but she did kinda break down while - for an example - making the pop rocks. And there's nothing wrong with that either.

[@dhelor]

She's a pastry chef by training, so this is kind of in her wheelhouse. Plus, I mean... Pop Tarts were bound to be easier to replicate in a gourmet way than freaking Pop Rocks.

This is exactly what i want gourmet makes to be, actually improving, not trying to match as close as possible It looks amazing

[@bodyofhope]

Yes!

[@WastedPo]

I agree. I wish they'd take this approach from now on. I get that a frustrated Claire is a funny Claire. But in the past, it felt silly that they pitched the series as her making a "gourmet version" of something when it seemed most of the time she was bending over backwards trying to "dumb things down" so her recipe was indistinguishable from something that came off a conveyor belt. (Not only that, but the final procedure was completely unusable for the home cook.) This is the first time that I can remember where she approached the challenge from the get-go with the attitude of, "The original isn't very good. I'm going to improve upon it, and make it possible for someone at home to do it too."

[@silnovak]

@@WastedPo Yeah, I always thought calling it "gourmet makes" would mean it looks close to the store bought, but uses much better ingredients and tastes gourmet rather than trying to duplicate it.

[@tine8849]

I agree but while things should be better it should also recognisably be like the original. So a very close match, just obviously superior. Maybe they could start the segment with a nice long round table discussion about what specifically needs to be improved, I always like those bits but want a lot more.

[@weeeeelaaaaaah]

Absolutely! The "science experiment" episodes are interesting, but like Claire pointed out - so many of the things she's done you either couldn't practically or wouldn't make at home. THESE I WANT TO MAKE!

Please do a gourmet version of hot pockets. I've tried to get that dough right and the fillings but i just haven't been able to figure it out. The really important part is not just having it come out good, but being able to freeze them and reheat them and still be good. thats the part that screws everything up.

[@MEG4nerd]

I'm guessing it has to do with flash freezing.

[@itsjustme9162]

I feel like we were all brought together by Claire and then slowly got introduced to / grown to love the rest of the cast like Brad, Chris, Carla, Gaby, etc..

[@lancerave]

itsjustme did anyone else start with Claire AND Brad?

[@dejavu011]

Brad was my gateway drug

[@Sam-vf1nz]

I started with carla and claire

[@iqbaltrisnayuda6556]

I started with brad because I’m into fermented foods

[@iluvqueen1]

I’ve always said that in the beginning Brad brought the loyalty and Claire brought the volume. It’s Alive was where we first saw the fun[ky] editing we all know and love, and believe it or not Gourmet Makes was not originally well received. Now though, I think it’s all pretty even in terms of likability. I have my favorites, but I enjoy watching the entire cast. BA really did a great job on figuring out how to grow a channel
