Oh, I agree. But I think she did more to affect food culture today than anyone else on that list. I'm not sure which among them is really a "food innovator."

If by "her" you meant McDonald's you're spot on.

If by "her" you meant Julia Child, you're grossly misinformed either about food or about art. If you wanted to compare Julia Child to an art museum hosting a retrospective of Van Gogh, then the comparison would be better.

Agreed he is the second as well as Joel Robuchon.

Dude! Yes! Maybe the only person mentioned so far that can rival Adria in terms of talent/respect.

While we're adding names to the pot, I think Grant Achatz deserves a mention as well. That guy doesn't even know that there is a box to think outside of.

If those rumors are true, I don't think Ms. Perky should be included in the poll. It's like adding Milli Vanilli to the list of the greatest singer-songwriters ever.
Sounds like a new poll to me. Blame it on the rain.

I was so focused on the blatant absentees on the list that I overlooked her presence.

Absurd.

She's not in even in the same league with the other people in the poll. Unless we're talking purely about most recognizable. Rachel Ray is an untalented, annoying, disaster.

In order of importance:

1) Guy who first decided to put mammoth steaks on the fire.

2) Inventor of bacon

3/4) Tie between the first man who looked at a lobster and thought it might be tasty / first man to cook and eat a shrimp.

5) Ollie Gates

6) Earl of Sandwich

7) Grandma

Tie 8/9) Giada

10) The Chairman

Honorable Mention: Alton Brown - I just enjoy the way he breaks down the 'why' ingredients act the way they do.
