I love Alton Brown. I bet his politics are super lib or whatever but who cares, he rules. His episode of Hot Ones where he calmly eats every sauce with no reaction to the heat and ranks them is fantastic.
Iirc he said some racist shit about Obama, and then scrubbed it by doing a healthy food collab with Michelle.

But he held up one of the books and said, “So, okay – this book’s from the South, where I’m from, and it’s got a few things in it that might be kind of foreign and exotic to you Iowans.” He turned the page. “Look! A real live Negro!”
Silence.
He muttered, “Okay. Remind me not to make African-American jokes in Iowa.”*
😬
I have no way to prove this, but I'm like 80% certain that Alton Brown has done the 15 Milky Way Bars copypasta in real life.
he's the guy that has the show where the chefs get put in like bondage equipment if they mess up a challenge, right?
apparently it was called cutthroat kitchen but it seems to be over sadly so I think you'd need to hit alton up on grindr yourself
