You know what a day it was for Petrozza between the nectarine tasting like pineapple I don't know how one can confuse that distinct flavor of each fruit but also Ramsay yelling at him for a messy work area in the kitchen during dinner service and in the end Ramsay saying to Petrozza "Your level of maturity stands out, you are the most gracious man on that team and later went to say your a gentleman. That certainly is one heck of a compliment and Petrozza crying over the compliment. It was a rollercoaster of a day for him with what seemed to be a bad day ended in compliments.
apskip:
I would not say it was such a bad day for Petrozza. He could not tell a nectarine form a pineapple. He could also not distinguish turnip from a sweet potato. However he did get chicken and he was the only person who had half a clue on the funny taste to the faux meat even though he could not bring that one home. He did score one point in that phase of the competition. How many did Louross score? How many did Bobby score? Goose eggs for both! Only Ben seemed to have a better palate and it was a completely different type of test. Ben might have gotten zero if he had to do what Petrozza and the others had to do.
apskip:
One item that should be revisited was the Red Team telling Matt he’s going to be the first to go. He has no problem with that - as long as Ben goes before him. Ben is gone, so who will be next?
The correct answer is Rosann(who has been hanging on by her fingertips), then Matt the following week.

Q&A Gordon Ramsay Source: TV Guide May 19-25, 2008
Any chit-chat with Gordon Ramsay, the foul-mouthed British chef and demanding star of Hell's Kitchen (Tuesdays at 9 pm/ET, Fox), is likely to be, well, profane. We were relieved Ramsay's harsh words were aimed mostly at the contestants… and not us!
TV Guide: There seems to be a considerable lack of culinary talent this season.…
Gordon Ramsay: Characters have to be flamboyant and funny, but you know they could be on the verge of a liability. That's my battle with Fox — they want to run a show, and I a restaurant.
TV Guide: Are you worried that none of these people are really worthy of the prize — a senior chef position at your new London West Hollywood restaurant?
Ramsay: I'm not worried...I'm sh---ing myself. A $10 million investment, and here I am facing a scenario that I could have egg on my face.
TV Guide: Obviously the contestants are challenged, but what is it like for you?
Ramsay: If they look good, I look good. If they look bad, I look terrible — I'm standing there completely exposed with my pants down in front of a dining room full of 120 difficult diners. It's bloody hard.
TV Guide: Is it really that difficult to make beef Wellington and risotto?
Ramsay: [Laughs] The recipes are laid out in black-and-white — it's in plain f---ing English.
TV Guide: You're a dad — do you curse like that at home?
Ramsay: With four young children — no chance.
TV Guide: One word to describe your cooking style.
Ramsay: Passionate.
TV Guide: What's your favorite comfort food?
Ramsay: In-N-Out burgers [an L.A. chain] — I absolutely love them.
TV Guide: Are you a fan of any American chefs? Thomas Keller, Ramsay: Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Daniel Boulud. Then you've got your TV chefs — Emeril [Lagasse], Bobby Flay. [Food Network] keeps on asking me to go on this Iron Chef thing.
TV Guide: Really? Are you going to do it?
Ramsay: I think they want to get me one-on-one to see what [I'm] really like on my own. Here's my issue — I have a competition every day, not once a month on Iron Chef on Food Network, which I love watching. It makes me laugh to watch them cook in an hour. Of course I welcome [the challenge] one day, but winning three [Michelin] stars in New York, three stars in L.A., three stars in London and three stars in Paris — when I achieve [that] goal in the culinary world, then I'll go on Iron Chef America. [Laughs]
TV Guide: You're promoting a new cookbook....
Ramsay: Yeah, Fast Food. Fast food doesn't have to be junk food. With four kids and a manic lifestyle, honestly, at home it's like the bloody zoo. Cooking from home is a completely different league, but a joy.
TV Guide: Any more Kitchen Nightmares?
Ramsay: I just finished filming the new [season] and here's the bad news… I've just been told I've got an ulcer from eating crap. So I have a big medical bill coming towards Fox. I swear to God, I'm so pissed off.
