Food Network Star Episode 6 Elimination Plus Star Salvation Finale

On tonight's episode of Food Network Star, the remaining contestants have to create a product that represents their brand and culinary style.  After creating their product, they have to make a commercial in an unorthodox setting.  Bobby Flay and Giada De Laurentiis were joined by Bob Tuschman and Susie Fogelson to judge the contestants tonight.


The contestants seemed to do better with creating their products than they did with creating their commercials.  The judges seemed to like most of the products, but had some issues with the commercials.

The judges felt that Loreal made the best commercial, and Chris K had the best product.  The bottom three consisted of Rueben (again), Emma, and Nicole.  The first of the three considered safe was Emma, and then the judges decided that Rueben would be the contestant eliminated.

Rueben went on to compete on Star Salvation against Chad Rosenthal and Luca Della Casa.   Chad was eliminated from Star Salvation and it came down to Rueben and Luca to rejoin the contestants in Las Vegas.  For some reason, they do not reveal the winner of Star Salvation and you have to wait until next week to see who joins the other contestants in Las Vegas.

Judging by Rueben's "Its Over" tweet after the episode aired, I would guess it is Luca rejoining the competition.
