Think of it as Chopped meets Supermarket Sweep—but with a twist from Guy Fieri.
Every Wednesday on Guy's Grocery Games, the Emmy winning host puts eager chefs through the wringer with his outlandish, hilarious and seemingly impossible challenges, all set within his very own grocery store, Flavortown Market. "This is a side of food that we haven't really touched on that we all experience and that's going to the grocery store," he has said of the Food Network competition series. "You go to the store and you're shopping sometimes on a budget. Sometimes you're shopping on a timeline. Sometimes you're shopping with your kids. So what we're doing is ...putting that into a culinary arena and I've got to tell you it's crazy."
With just 30 minutes, contestants must shop the fully socked aisles and prepare a dish that will win over a panel of judges, made up of his all-star friends like Alex Guarnaschelli, Jet Tila and Marc Murphy.

I got done mocking Guy a long time ago. He may be the mayor of Flavortown but he’s a champion of the people.

Food Network has a video of perishable items being pulled from the shelves each week for donation. Non-perishable items are covered up and reused the next season.

I use to make fun of him, because his persona and look come off like a douche, but the more you look into him, he’s a great guy that does a lot for the community.
