Chopped

Chopped Drinking Game

This is the true test for those that enjoy the culinary arts and also getting hammered. The contestants, judges, and Ted all determine how trashed you will get within the hour.

It is crucial that during commercials, each player of the game votes for which contestant will be chopped when the show resumes. Once the show resumes, each player who improperly guesses which contestant was to be eliminated must take a shot or finish his or her drink.

Amanda Freitag

• 2 drinks every time she is displeased with seasoning

Geoffrey Zakarian

• 3 drinks every time he finds an irrelevant and minute flaw with a dish because no other judges had complaints

Scott Conant

• 2 drinks for bitching about pasta
  • ONE SHOT if he explains how it should have been done
