Lots of chat about the Waffle Snob on other threads so I thought it was time.
Here's a link to her interview.

And she still sounds like a Waffle snob.

Hated her then, hate her now. And it hasn't even been all that long since she made her well-deserved exit!

She had the gall to bitch about Julia when she was the sole reason her team was failing?

Bye-bye, Tiffany.

She sounds like an elitist snob. Considering Julia was the only one able to fry an egg her arrogance is confusing.

I LOVE that she was eliminated when she wasn't supposed to be the one to go home. Ha! Egg on you!

You said in your exit interview that "if Ramsay was choosing people on heart, he absolutely made the right decision." What did you mean by that?

I think that for a lot of these people it was their life's opportunity, and they took it very much to heart, very seriously. It was a big opportunity for a lot of these people. I think when it came down to heart, they all had more than I did.

That sounds SO sour grapes to me. It did when she said it on the show too. Like - oh poor Waffle House cook, she needed this more than I did, so I'm happy I lost.

Overall, I thought Tiffany was WAY too snotty. Yes, you are classically trained; yes, there probably is some sort of "language of the kitchen" (I cook, but not in any CLASSICAL way so I guess I wouldn't know). But come on... you can't tell me that if you asked her to get a colender, and she didn't know what it was, you couldn't say "the strain-y thing with holes for draining pasta." Or whatever.

Casey22, totally agree that her arrogance was confusing considering she really did come off as the weakest link. I know it's all in the editing, but she just seemed to be one of those people who makes a plan and then can't adjust as the situation changes (i.e. she planned to cook eggs, and even if she couldn't get them right, she wouldn't change the plan and let someone else try and possibly show her up). I was slightly surprised she didn't try to pull out the "something is wrong with the eggs/pans/stove/etc" excuse.

There are quite a few chefs out there who are NOT classically trained and could kick her ass into next week. Where does she get off turning her nose up at Julia for that, never mind the Waffle House comment(s)?

Buh bye. Learn to cook an egg.

WORD SceneStealer, what the hell is this "Kitchen Language" that the rest of us poor slobs couldn't possibly understand? Watching this show you'd think the only language really needed was the four-letter word variety.

I'm sure there is some kitchen jargon she wouldn't know right away, but damn, there aren't any Kitchen-to English dictionaries out there. It can't be THAT hard to pick up on.

Jargon, not language. That's it exactly, moonchildbeast. And the point of using jargon is to exclude people. Which is what Tiffers was trying to do to Julia. Funny how that worked out for her, eh?

In this neck of the woods, Spanish is the language of the kitchen.

I am shocked they knocked her off so fast, usually the ones that annoy me the most last forever or win.

You don't judge someone by how they treat their perceived equals, judge them by how they treat someone they perceive as being lower than them.

In which case, she's a pathological snob, a heartlessly cruel person and, well, a raging bitch.

Her obviously not being here actually helped the women win this week, I bet. Thank God for that.

If the kitchen lingo was the only issue, then I'm not quite sure how Bonnie the Nanny/Chef didn't pose a problem. Nah Tiffany is waffleist. Being a snob is off-putting, but when you can't even back your alleged superiority up by frying a simple egg then you need to get off my screen.
