The Chew needs to chew on this.

ABC’s afternoon foodie chat show has a tasting table in the front row for people to sample the days eats along with the hosts who eat throughout the show, and an audience of people behind them salivating.

Why?

Can wealthy ABC Network not afford to buy some paper plates and hand out a tidbit or two to the rest of the forgotten and hungry audience?

I mean, this is a food show right?

ABC, what gives? Is it be too much trouble to pass around small plates so the rest of the pathetically eager audience could taste along with rest and not feel like the ignored step child not going to the ball?

It’s really painful to watch. ABC make more food! UGH…

Hello, don’t kid yourself. They came to your show only to eat. Trust me, Live with Kelly has a waiting list.
