How Cooking Competitions Took Over TV (Part 1)

From Iron Chef to The Great British Bake Off, cooking competition shows hav been a staple of American entertainment and education for ages. But America's Test Kitchen: The Next Generation contestant Garrett Schlichte has seen a shift in these shows over time; whether it's about how competitive they are to what they're cooking, to who their intended audience really is. Garrett takes us behind the scenes across two episodes as he unravels the history and behind-the-scenes insights from the bake-offs and kitchen gauntlets from over the years.
