Hey, don't yell at me, that line is from Anthony Bourdain!
It was said at the recent roast for chef and Food Network celeb Mario Batali. It was held at Capitale and served as a benefit for the Food Bank of New York.
Lots of fellow chefs and celebrities were at the event, including Queer Eye For The Straight Guy's Ted Allen ("Mario actually hasn't cooked since 1979 - unless you count freebasing"), comedian Artie Lange ("You look like Kiefer Sutherland after he was stung by bees"), and comedian Nick DiPaolo, who asked "What are you, trying to be the Chris Farley of the Food Network?" Yeah, that pic that accompanies the New York mag piece really is kinda disturbing.
As New York reports, even though Rocco DiSpirito and fellow Food Network star Rachael Ray were not at the roast, a lot of the comics dumped on them too. (As Julia told you earlier, Batali will team up with Ray on Iron Chef America this Sunday as they go up against the team of Bobby Flay and Giada De Laurentiis.)

Am I the only one who has very disturbing images of the Donner Party when I see anything talking about chef's roasting each other?
Yea? Just me?
Ok. I'll go sit in the corner again.
