Toyota product placements the hell out of Top Chef

You are probably thinking, "wtf, I thought this was a car blog."

Well, it mostly is, but it is also pop culture and all that jazz. Plus, I will write what I want to.

Anyways, bar none, Top Chef is one of the best television shows on the tube. No joke. And I hate reality tv. I like to limit my tv time to Lost and well that's about it.

Anyways, Toyota is the head sponsor of Top Chef Chicago, which just premiered last night. So every other break you are stuck watching a crappy Toyota spot and then cut back to the show where the Rav4 or whatever cruises gracefully into the Whole Foods market. Annoying.

Anyways, did anyone else watch? Have a top pick? My pick is Andrew, mainly because he wears tailored jeans and Cole Haan slip ons–he has to be a car guy. Plus he says "mf'er" every other word. But honestly, none of them really wowed me. Oh and of all the pizza joints in Chicago, why Uno!?

I am going with Dale.
I said when it came on during the intros that Nimma would be the first to go.
I hope Erik is next to go, what a d-bag.
