Mario Batali -- Crockin' and Rollin'

We had one minute with chef Mario Batali before he and his hideous orange Crocs jumped onto a moped and took off -- but that was enough time for him to give us a tasty recipe that even the cooking-challenged could master.

2. Somebody forgot to tell him he's in La-La Land NOT back home in ROME where orange plastic shoes, white socks and a Vispa scooter might be in fashion. You can't wear that in Hollyweird.

4. I don't think he wears crocs, I think they're clogs or something. He always wore those orange things even back in 2000, probably way before crocs even came out.

5. This fat chef, Batali is a big time celebrity ass-kisser, that's all he hangs out with. Plus a few months back he was in Miami at a dinner honoring the King and Queen of Spain, on the spanish speaking show on El Gordo y La Flaca, they showed a him on film - drunk- and El Gordo said something to the effect that Batali was cussing up a storm in front of the honored guests, This guy is a Asshole.

7. I finally agree with TMZ on something. Those shoes are hideous, whatever they are. And he wears them with the white socks and shorts everywhere. He is revolting.

9. He is cool but has also been enjoying the culinary arts far too much. He's gotten unhealthily obese over the last few years....it's got to be hard though, around all that great food and how does one resist? I sympathize.

10. An orangy-albino fat slob wearing orange crocs does not an attractive man make.....

11. Some people are just way too hateful for no apparent reason, dontcha think?
I think he looks good and seems to have lost a bit of weight.

A vile, hate spewing moron does not a decent human being make.
Why are people so rotten for no apparent reason?
Whatever.
I think he actually looks like he lost a bit of weight. He was much heavier a year ago. He lso seems genuinely nice.

13. Repeat after me - mopeds can only carry one person, scooters can carry two - there, that wasn't too hard was it?

14. I was thinking the same thing, he looks like he's lost some weight. I think he and Gwyneth (sp) Paltrow went on a food tour awhile back for some network (not the FOOD NETWORK though). Anyway the shorts, and those organge clogs or crocs are his signature trademark, he's been wearing them for yearssssss.

15. He and G. Paltrow went on a food tour awhile back for some network. I thought the same thing, he looks like he's lost a bit of weight. The shorts and organge clogs/crocs have been his signature trademark for years and years now. Most famous chefs have some type of famous trademark they're known for in addition to their cuisine.
