On a much lighter note, tonight at 10pm on the Food Network is the Chopped Teen Tournament finale.  The winners from each of the past four weeks face off against each other for the prize of $25,000 in prize money and a $40,000 culinary school scholarship.

The winners so far who will compete for the grand prize are as follows:

  • First Episode - Jason Khaytin - Pennsylvania
  • Second Episode - Dante Foggy - New Jersey
  • Third Episode - Tommi Rae Fowler - South Carolina
  • Fourth Episode - Sequoia Pranger - Oregon
The judges tonight will be Amanda Freitag, Alex Guarnaschelli, and Alex Stupak, and the contestants will be facing ingredients such as a sea creature in the first round and a classic kids' snack in the entree round.  So tune in tonight to see who will take home the big prize of $25,000 and a $40,000 scholarship.  I will update this post with the winner after the episode airs.
