The Resume

    (1951- )
    Resides in Vermont
    Host of 'America's Test Kitchen'
    Editor-in-chief of 'Cook's Illustrated' magazine

Why he might be annoying:

    He has bad acne scars.
    He wears bow ties.
    He is a control freak.
    His editorials in 'Cook's Illustrated' are rambling, incoherent, and have nothing to do with cooking.
    He sickeningly exaggerates the charm of New England.
    In his spare time, he writes dull 'inspirational' books.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He has a self-deprecating sense of humor.
    His recipes are designed for ordinary people in basic kitchens.
    He meticulously tests each recipe on his show.
    While in his twenties, he scraped up enough money and launched 'Cook's Illustrated' out of his garage.
    His magazine has no ads.
