Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The original crowdsourcing diner's guide has launched its first TV survey, which aims to reveal readers' favorite food TV shows - and the most annoying hosts.
The online survey from Zagat, launched August 19, asks readers a slew of questions including their general TV-viewing habits and loyalties to food shows and cooking channels.
The survey also aims to find out if the proliferation of food and cooking shows has changed people's eating habits: do viewers actually cook the dishes shown or do they ogle the foods and then order takeout?
Respondents are also asked if they follow food TV personalities on other forms of social media, like Facebook or Twitter.
Meanwhile, users of the foodie forum Chowhound also weighed in with their opinions on food TV shows in a thread that generated 52 replies since being started last January.
Though answers run across the board - mostly among Food Network personalities - the most popular shows mentioned include Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, The Barefoot Contessa and No Reservations.
