I never had the luxury of having satellite tv until recently, when I saw some awesome direct tv deals online and decided it was time to buy, and I now know what my favorite station is. Although I do like to watch various programming on many different networks, if I only got to choose one station to watch, it would be Food Network. This might surprise a lot of people, but there are many reasons why I would choose that station.
I do enjoy cooking, so I like to see the recipes and food options that they present. There are numerous styles showcased, including Italian food, Southern food, healthier food, ways to make cheaper meals, and much more. These types of programming are nice, but not the main reason while I would choose this channel.
The main reason I would pick Food Network is because of the very entertaining, cooking competition shows. These shows include Iron Chef America, Chopped, and their cake building competitions. These shows are incredibly entertaining because you get to see some of the best chefs in the United States compete against each others. In the case of Chopped, they are often required to use some of the strangest ingredients possible. Could you imagine trying to make deserts out of rye bread, bananas, coconut flakes, and soy sauce in 30 minutes? I do not think it would even be possible for me to do that.
All of these reasons listed is why I would choose food network.
