Chris Ying writes a very amusing article measuring a TV Show Host's attractiveness against the unattractiveness of the food her or she consumes in a periodical that's new to me, meatpaper.
Basically, he posits, if one measures attractiveness of any Food Show TV Host on a scale of 0-10 and then adds that score to a similar measurement of the UN-attractiveness of the featured food(s), the resulting sum is 10. For instance, Adam Richman from Man vs. Food on the Travel Channel (a favorite lazy Saturday viewing choice in my household) would rate about a 6 and the food he eats, though not necessarily gross is certainly junk-y and invariably served in gross portions, would rate about a 4. An entirely unscientific, but fun way to think about the food tv we consume.
