Chopped

Food Network has tried over and over again to make shows about amateurs competing while cooking.  Their most recent attempt is the show "Chopped".  This week the four contestants consist of three men and one woman.  To make it even better, the one woman is a vegetarian.  On this show the contestants are given four or five "mystery" items that must be put in their dish.  The first round is making the appetizer, one person will be "chopped" in this round.  This goes on until there is only one person left, and they win the competition.  I find it interesting that there is only one girl.  I think this is much different that most American's would think because many television shows give the idea that a woman's place is in the kitchen.  Almost every round has some type of meat as a mystery item, this makes it even harder for the female.  While, she knows how to cook meat, it isn't her specialty.  All four of the dishes look appealing and (according to the judges) taste amazing.  But who do you think obviously gets "chopped"?  If you guessed the woman, you'd be correct.  I think that Food Network is sending the wrong message by only having one female contestant and by not treating her fairly.
