Guy Fieri To Be On Next Cover Of The Food Mag
 |
(Ed. note: if you’re new here, we highly recommend you read this FNH post and all of the hilarious comments that ensued, for the back story on The Food Mag and its editor, Candus Jane Zanghi. If you don’t have time, here’s the brief (and far less entertaining) version: We called Candus out on writing a bitchy, juvenile e-mail to one of her readers. She showed up here and “defended” herself by writing multiple annoying comments like “yay!!!” and “I’m cute!!!” in the comments section. Seriously.)
Hold onto your seats, FNH’ers… we have some exciting news to report! We just got word that Guy Fieri is going to be on the cover of the next issue of The Food Mag. In the wise, wise words of Food Mag editor Candus Jane Zanghi, “YAY!!!!!”
Don’t worry — we’re sure Candus is still super cute.
While we haven’t seen the cover yet, we’re pretty sure it’s going to look something like this.
Enjoy!

I think that’s about right, why aren’t the glasses on the back of his head this time? He should be holding, a can of cheez whiz, not tongs, and someone should really tell him to bleach his goatee if he’s going for the whole bleached effect.
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was hoping we’d get more news from Candus Jane! This is fabulous. Your cover is truly hilarious too. Nicely done.
Now we wait for Candus to show up here and “defend” herself again.
And tell you how cute she is. She actually looked quite retarded in that pic she used in attempt to defend lack of talent.
Suppose this is the “major magazine that will be out in dec?”

You think that’s bad? I saw a commercial not that long ago that said Chef(?) Duff is getting his own Man Cave on DIY (at least I think it was DIY).
About that pic: just replace the tongs with a bowling ball. He already has the shirts, might as well go all the way.
YAY!
Great cover! I would bet good money that your fake cover is 90% of what the real one will look like.
The illustrious return of Candouche! :::drool
I could see the mag cover with him taking a huge, nasty bite out of a huge, nasty sandwich of some kind. And as a bonus, we could see all of his rings on his fat fingers.
I noticed last night that Sandra Lee is going to be on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition next Sunday. Joy. I think I’ll just TIVO that one so I can skip SL.
Marge Simpson is on the cover of Playboy, Guy Fieri is on the cover of a supermarket tabloid.
The world is crumbling, here.
Whats next, will some silly haybrained ex- governor from Alaska write a best selling book?
Oy vey.
JillS, are you making fun of my avatar?
Sorry, I MEANT ‘Jill, not Jillian,’ not JillS.
Carry on.
to Foot Long…..I wasn’t making fun of you at all. I didn’t even notice your avatar. But now that I look at it, it’s not nasty at all. :)
yes but that handle is.
Mikey, I don’t just watch food on TV, I live it.
I have a part time business selling hot dogs and sausage, and my best item is, well, the foot long.
Hence the handle.
YAY, still so cute!
I thought Candus wanted to have a successful magazine?! I mean, if you’re only going to publish two a year (even tho it’s a 12 month subscription), the least she could have done was find somebody who doesn’t spoil your freakin appetite. What a douche.
(I know, you’re asking yourself, with that comment ‘what a douche’, exactly who I’m talking about….)
@FootLong: “Whats next, will some silly haybrained ex- governor from Alaska write a best selling book?
Oy vey.”
Hey Footlong, do we really have to bring up Palin? Jeez. Pass the sauerkraut!
@ Byrdie: I knew exactly who you’re talking about. Fieri’s no prize pig either. YAY!
As much as I’m annoyed with him, he is “famous” for wtvr reasons that I do not comprehend. People (most old) just seem to love him and the FN just keeps giving him shows. So as much as he’s here to provide us with material, he apparently serves a different purpose to others. With that said, the thing I wonder about the most is WHY in the world these “chefs” agree to be in her magazine?! They’re all well known, have succeeded in their fields (you know what I mean), they must known what a scam this magazine is (2 issues in 2,3 years) so why do they do it?? I’m starting to believe the rich daddy theory more and more now. They must be bribed to do this, it’s the only logical answer.
What’s up with Candus? First she takes a pic with Guy because she wants her unborn baby to have its picture taken with someone famous, now she puts the same idiot on the cover of her mag. Maybe Guy is her “Baby Daddy”?
hee hee shitty diners LOL
YAAAAY!
” @FootLong: “Whats next, will some silly haybrained ex- governor from Alaska write a best selling book?

No Kidding, no better way to lose the respect of your peers than to bring politics into a place that has nothing to do with politics. Wiener Peddler.
Great OP though… I don’t think Candace knows that the ol adage of ‘all publicity is good publicity’ doesnt as much apply in the digital world.
This is great stuff! I love how “food” is misspelled, it was super cute!!! YAY!!!!!!!
ENGLISH: yay (yā) Interj. Used as an slang exclamation of pleasure, approval, elation, or victory, often used by an immature person as an expression of happiness “Yay! I have finally finished my homework.” Alt: Superlative (chiefly US) so, this (accompanied by a hand gesture) “The pony was yay high.”
TURKISH: yay (yā) Noun. bow (weapon).
I can’t see how this “Foood” magazine can be at all profitable, especially when real publishers like Conde Nast closed down Gourmet. Gourmet was stacked with consumate professionals from every corner of the culinary world and was a respected magazine. I don’t get it.
Perhaps Candus Zhanghi is a money launderer .
Yay.
The Food Mag may or may not be profitable, but if it is, it’s because the contributors DON”T GET PAID. None of the contributors to the Eric Ripert issue of The Food Mag have been paid. Candus owes a LOT of people a LOT of money.
@ Spider:
Since you aren’t registered on this forum, and you haven’t yet posted an avatar, I think perhaps you’re being just a little bit presumptuous in claiming to speak for my peers.
Maybe you just didn’t get the joke?
BTW, the FOOOD Magazine cover is terrific!
ROTFLMAO terrific.
Sarah, she makes money buy selling subscriptions, keeping the money, then failing to put out the magazine.
Wow. Guy Fieri..what a big star. Maybe he can tell us all how to improperly handle food and scarf down a three pound cheeseburger in 30 seconds. Gross
Right now.
Right here.
On Diners, Drive Ins and Douchebags…
Insert american clasics red convertible here.
Did you mean Diners, Drive-Ins and Dwarfs ?
he had one of those dwarfs, ironically named stretch make a gross pizza on big bite. guy himself made an equally gross s’more pizza. wtf? furthermore had I met this stretch cat, I’d prolly wanna get out of his restaurant asap and guy invites him into his kitchen to make some ridiculous pizza?
@FLS… Do you seriously judge someone’s posting credibility on whether they use a silly picture to identify their online identity? (FYI. I’ve been here since May)
So I won’t speak for my ‘peers’. I come here to read the very entertaining content and comments, making every effort to escape the skewed political agenda that plagues our world. I found your political innuendo annoying.
Why do you guys go after each other when there are such great targets like Guy and Candunce? Personally, I think Candunce and Sarah Palin go together frightfully well. And to say that mentioning Palin is bringing up politics is a stretch! Yay!
YAY!!!1!!one1!!
I was starting to miss Canduhs.
Funny I was just going to asking in the forums weather there was any news of Candice. We know she reads FNH.
Actually we should give credit to her. She has sped things up. She went from eight months between issues to four. So any poor misguided slobs who subscribed now. only have to wait four years to get their one year monthly subscription filled.
Still with pages and pages devoted to Seth Levine how can this mag fail?
Does he even know what a joke this mag is? I don’t get how she is landing all these chefs (and “chefs”). Sure, Ferry is ridiculous, but Canditz is worse.
She’s gotta have money (or daddy does) or she’s “dating” someone in the biz.
@Teague – to be fair, the issue should probably have a release date before anyone goes throwing credit to Candi :) YAY!
I’ll have to check next time I see the magazine (at CVS, of all places): does she even separate the issues by month, or is it like my high school newsletter, “edition II number V”?
@Beans You’re assuming Ferry has scruples. I doubt he has ever met a camera that he doesn’t like.
Guy Douche and Candouche. It’s a match made in….well somewhere.
I haven’t learned shit from this guy except to wonder if he smells. Stay away, dude! Mario, Tyler and god forbid Giada have all taught me more. I think the ocean in Giada’s kitchen window is doctored up in the new season. The white caps were also blue. Must find the appropriate post for more about her. I am bugged.
Oh, right. This was the confrontation wherein an officious young lady by the name of Amy sent a rude and mean-spirited letter stuffed to the gills with unsolicited criticism and dripping with harsh language to a magazine editor about whom no one previously cared and was subsequently shocked — SHOCKED! — to receive a flippant answer. Let the pointless vilification of/ad hominem attacks on an easily-ignored young lady begin!
As the sages have said: let he who cannot taketh it, disheth it not.
Oh my, I picked the wrong day to get appendicitis; I was in surgery when the Canduhs story originally broke.
Putting Gay Fairy on the cover of what passes as a “magazine” is MONEY!!!!
On a semi-related note…
I saw something on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives that just about made me fall out of my chair laughing.
Guy gets served a plate of something with brains in it.
He gets a piece of it, manages to somehow get it into his mouth, tries to enjoy it, tries not to spit it out.
Finally, he needs something to go with it.
So he reaches for something on a nearby plate.
Which turns out to be…
LAMB TESTICLES
As much as I loathe the Ferry maggot, I must admit that I’m looking forward to reading reviews about his upcoming “Roadshow”.
Ha ha, administrix, that was such a clever riposte. You get one of Guy’s spit-out mouthfuls of brains as a prize for having such a way with words.
@ Administratrix actually if you were to read the original post you’d see that it was Candice who wrote the unsolicited snaky letter that precipitated all of this.
@Administratrix, oh puhleeze. Straw Man fallacy much? Of course Amy’s letter was critical. It was a complaint letter, FCOL. Everyone in the biz gets those.
What separates Canduce from professional editors is 1) her immature and, yes, flippant reply to a customer and 2) her cavalier and disdainful comments on the previous post.
Ad hominem or not, Canduce is absolutely deserving of the public’s scorn and mistrust.
@Freezezzy, I saw that too! Had to admit to a few chuckles over that one. :-D
@Ferd – Nicely said!!!
While I’m not a fan of Fieri, I’m looking forward to reading “Food” simply because I can’t get enough of any kind of food-related magazine. The previous posts about the editor and her responses to the critical letter seem a little bizarre but I can’t help but feel a little intrigued by her as I started a local magazine a few years ago with my own funds and possibly know how emotionally difficult the process can be. The comments about her photo are beyond rude and meaningless. After reading these I expected her to be wearing a Playboy-tee and a Bump-it. What about the food in the mag? That’s what I want to know about. Whether the editor thinks she’s cute or that I’m a shithead really doesn’t matter to me.
Maybe she meets them at food events? I know a legit food blogger who occasionally gets to meet big-name chefs at tastings, press events, etc. Perhaps Canduhs just snags ‘em for a second at some kind of event, lures them into answering a couple of questions, and then voila! “interview” accomplished. I seriously doubt ethics would be much of a problem here.
I picked up a copy of this magazine at the drug store and laughed all the way to the bathroom with it. Food Magazine? HAHAHA!! If I hear flavors, heat, de-construct, sweet and savory, etc. anymore I am going to start mastering microwave turkey cooking. This whole food movement has gotten out of hand. How about a well prepared steak, baked potato and grilled veggies instead of a de-constructed BLT using polenta, sea urchin and the ass fruit??
What? You guys don’t even know me even though you base your satire of me on the way I’ve actually acted. I’m super cute, I have a magazine and that’s all that matters. It doesn’t matter if I act like a twat in front of the magazine reading public. Oh yeah… YAY!!1!
PS: Fieri’s Vienna sausage felt so nice in my hot pocket.
@Administatrix, how was the criticism unsolicited? If you put something out into the public eye you are, in fact, asking for both praise and criticism. The way the editor of that magazine replied to the criticism showed a lack of professionalism that was absolutely beyond galling. Then to add insult to the situation she showed up on this site and behaved in a manner that would have embarrassed a first-grader.
I do agree that the young lady in question is much better ignored as she’s really not worth paying attention to. I just had to comment because I am way past tired of everyone acting like criticism is some sort of mortal sin. Most of us take criticism (and the letter writer was actually quite constructive in her criticism) and use it as a springboard to improving ourselves, or we have the maturity to simply ignore it.
YAY!! I like spaghetti. Yay!!
Damn, Spider. Relax and enjoy the FNH. :)
Candus Zanghi’s magazine seems to be no longer in business. No one is returning emails from their website and both phone numbers are saying “Mail Box Is Full, Try Back Later”.
Candus, don’t think you will get away with this, you owe me 11 more issues or 11 dollars.
Well, we all know she is in hiding. She owes “Thousands of dollars to investors, contributors, and subscribers” She is not living in WA state she is actually living in Northern VA. I think everyone that is owed money needs to file a complaint to the Post Office Box for mail fraud. What she is doing is mail fraud and can do some serious jail time. She has two kids that she neglects and leaves alone at night for hours while she bar hops looking for her next baby daddy. I think I read a blog somewhere that they were gathering enough evidence to turn into the FBI.
Candus is going by 4 or 5 different names. She lives right next door to me in Centreville, VA Fairfax County . she owes so many people money.
