You didn't really think Julia Childs was pretty did you? Nor are Emeril LaGasse, or Chef Paul Prudhomme my idea of handsome. Granted Rachael Rhea is cuter than hell, but that doesn't make her cooking any better.

Fact is, your rough looks, and retro cooking style might well catch the attention of both producers and the public.

Let me suggest that you talk to some of the local business you frequent, and a local TV station about the possibility of starting a short cooking segment on a local morning show. I think that is how Mr. Food got started in the TV cooking business.

If you don't ask, you will never know if it could happen. Let's be blunt, your health will no longer hold up to make your laundromat-dinner a reality. You might have some fun and make some money with a cooking show, even if it was only a five minute segment of Greenville This Morning.

Hell, you can call yourself the Chef Ogre, or The Kilted Chef. The novelty of a kilted cook might be a selling point, as could be what others view as your disability. Give it some thought.
