BkSmoke said:My friends wife works for the food network and she told her husband that after Flay lost the original battle between himself and Iron Chef Morimoto which was held in Japan, he demanded a rematch in the states and threatened to quit if he wasn't told what the secret ingredient would be. The first battle Flay cut himself and was clearly outmatched in the original kitchen stadium but if you watched the rematch Flay even had his own "special ingredient" that just happened to go perfectly with lobster.
