Cat Cora “Masterchef” Challenge Takes Chefs To Farmers Market (Video)

Cat Cora made a stop on Masterchef, another reality TV cooking show hosted by Gordon Ramsay. Cora is known for her healthier, sustainable approaches towards cooking and the chefs’ challenge took them to the local farmers market.
Jamie Oliver was amazed at how many children couldn’t recognize fruits and vegetables when he traveled to a school before filming his Food Revolution series, but even the Masterchefs stumbled over a few of the uncommon items. Still, Joe Bastianach, judge of Masterchef and restaurateur was impressed. He writes at the Huffington Post this must be a sign of America getting more conscious at what goes onto their plates.
“Today we are getting more familiar with the cornucopia that is grown locally in our communities, and becoming acquainted with produce that just a few years ago could only be identified by chefs and farmers. The fact that the contestants got as far as they did tells me that America is really embracing the farm to table movement — getting away from processed and prepared foods, and taking an interest in what goes into their dishes and meals.”
