And the intentions behind the show are good. But the execution? Oy! First of all, like everyone has been saying, I don't know where the hell she picks up half of her ingredients or where she gets those prices. But my main issue is the show seems geared towards someone who has never seen a kitchen before and can't tell a spoon from a fork. "How to Boil Water" is more advanced than this show. I like Ted Allen, too, but "Food Detectives" like "Money Saving Meals" seems geared towards the mildly mentally impaired. I know some people are so broke that paying 13 cents for a potato is a big difference from 53 cents. But I think if this show gets a second cycle they can do away with such ridiculous penny pinching and have her pick up her ingredients at Chelsea Markets or a local farmer's market or something. The penny stuff undoubtedly appeals to Sandy's OCD, but enough already, we're all adults here. I like Aunt Sandy, too, honestly. And the intentions behind the show are good.

I just can't get past her non stop talking talking talking talking talking talking talking. I got as far as the pork chops being grilled then I had to go lie down with a cool towel over my eyes....

You save a lot of money on meals when all your dinner guests are dead of heart disease and diabetes.
