Criticism of The Show
Criticism of Rachel Ray's show has been levied despite its successes. Ray had no formal cooking experience, leading to complaints about the appearance of her food. Matters of grammar and her expressions, such as 'Sammies' (sandwiches) and 'Yum-o' when she tastes the food. Though it also could be tied to overexposure.
Charlie Dougiello, Ray's director of publicity stated, "Rachael always says that some of the criticisms of her as a chef are correct. She is not a chef. She whips up meals in a way some chefs would cringe at. If she slips up, she slips up. We don't stop taping. It is just like life."

And think perchance they’ll sell; if not,
The lustre of the better yet to show
Shall show the better.”
