“Do not allow watching food to replace making food.”

Everything in food is science. The only subjective part is when you eat it.
You don't want flame to hit your food. Flame is bad. Flame does nasty things to food. It makes soot and it makes deposits of various chemicals that are not too good for us. The last thing you really want to see licking at your food while it's on a grill is an actual flame.
The kitchen's a laboratory, and everything that happens there has to do with science. It's biology, chemistry, physics. Yes, there's history. Yes, there's artistry. Yes, to all of that. But what happened there, what actually happens to the food is all science.
I like television. I still believe that television is the most powerful form of communication on Earth - I just hate what is being done with it.
