I saw a few vegans *attempt* to impress Florian but so far they've been striking out.

I like their series, so I DVR it.

This morning, watching a rerun of Monster Truck Jam - (don't tell me how it ends yet - just got past the first round) before I had to get ready for work.

I *still* pine for Challenge, because it's so much fun to watch cake artists to try to come up with something impressive.

Vegan cupcakes aren't necessarily bad, the best of them are quite acceptable, especially when they use sucrose instead of stevia or other "natural" crap that tastes like crap in baked goods.

They are just harshly judged when they compete against the ones that use eggs and dairy.

If it's limited to vegans, it would be a very interesting show to watch.
