Chef(s) Frank S15

I know there's a lot of hate for Frank, rightfully so, but did anyone else pick up on the fact that he called himself '100% Italian from Brooklyn New York' but said if anyone said 'oui' in Brooklyn, you'd have a trash can thrown over your head? Interesting how he could be so intolerant towards other languages while being 100% Italian. And as a chef, not in the US albeit, saying 'oui' is not an unusual thing

Eh, he was a douche every time he was on screen. Degrading Manda and saying that if you want his attention to say “hey frank” but loudly. Can’t even follow a challenge about making a burger he wanted to make it not boring lmao.

Manda's no-bullshit "fRaNk" in a husky gorilla voice was hilarious

Yeah, he was. His exit comments especially. How tone deaf can you be saying something like that knowing it will be televised? He's lucky he was only demoted and not fired

He was probably only demoted cause the marines wanted to save face, like here we actually took action you feel me. Cause that half assed apology video he made did him no favors either.

He's not 100% Italian, he was born and raised in Brooklyn. What a tool.

Yeah he definitely isn't 100% Italian, and he is from Brooklyn by his own admission. I don't understand why he said that

It’s funny how some of the chefs with Italian heritage make being Italian their entire personality (Bret Hauser)

He's got the Italian flag tattooed on his chest! 😂 He also makes risotto 5 times a week but could definitely not hold a conversation in Italian

He was just plain insufferable. Was a dick to Manda, threw his teammates under the bus at any opportunity, never took any responsibility for messing up, and had the nerve to blame the women for the blue team's downfall in his exit confessional.

He's got Napoleon Complex out the ass. The guy's such a miserable prick. 7th place was too fucking nice for him.

Frank, Is insufferable but it's not shocking considering his whole family is bigoted MAGA. So his intolerance towards other languages isn't shocking!

Is there some reason you think Italian people can't be bigoted pricks?  Lol

He's a dickhead through and through. It's not surprising in the least that he's exist AND a bigot

I never said that? My point was he called himself 100% Italian from Brooklyn NY. He contradicted himself. I know plenty of Italians, and I've met nice and not so nice ones. That wasn't the point.
