DH and I just saw it last night (we watch the day after airing on hulu)... it was so great! We love regular MasterChef so seeing the kids G's age preparing crazy difficult foods was mind blowing!
I have G watching it now so maaaaaaaaybe he'll open up his mind and palette to try more foods, and maybe even want to contribute more to meal prep! haha
Just the first episode showed some crazy amazing skill, I can't imagine how much better these kids are going to get! *exciting*

I watched this too and I was amazed! It has inspired me to make sure when I am cooking/baking with little ones to give a bit more of the reins over to them and to explain things a bit more too.
I would love to know what things these parents did to help their children get to this level. Most kids wouldn't even know what half the ingredients were let alone how to properly prepare them! While I would love to have kids that are great cooks I can't see myself exposing them to things like truffles and exotic seafood often enough for them to be so familiar with them by the time they are 10!

Yes! We were pleasantly surprised at how well the kids cooked and really liked the show. The only downfall...I hated seeing the kids cry 
made me cry

We had been eagerly awaiting its arrival in the US and are loving it! Those kids are crazy talented! I gotta wonder though, how many of their parents pay for private lessons and how many learned at home. Also, do they really only get a trophy? Not even college money?

@Mrs Hedgehog: OMGosh I wonder this too about their prize! Some of them have better skill than the adults that just went through the regular contest and they got a ton of money! I hope they get something else that was just left as a surprise, otherwise I think I'll be really disappointed! lol
@sarbear: Me too! I felt so bad for them! I think that's why they kept the parents there for that one.
@Cole: I agree with both you & MrsHedgehog. I wonder HOW they learned all that they did. I mean the 9 year old making perfect sushi?! Amazeballs!

We love it!! We love the adult version of MC, so we knew we wanted to check this one out. I couldn't believe the little 8 year old boy who made the meringue. So cute! And yeah, a trophy?! Eff that, ha.
Confirmed even more that we'll be involving our LOs in household things (cooking, etc.) from a young age. Their little brains are such sponges, and they are more capable than many people think!
