Mrs. Ari may be banging Bobby Flay on Entourage, but women aren't the only ones turned on by TV chefs. Watch an afternoon of cooking shows and you're bound to start salivating over more than just a piping hot rump roast. Somehow, these programs manage to serve up a bevy of seriously sexy women who just can't stop ooh-ing and mmm-ing and putting stuff in their mouths. These ain't yer typical lunch ladies we're talking about. Take a look.
5. Eden Grinshpan
A fresh face on the TV chef scene, the adorable, down-to-earth host of the Cooking Channel's Eden Eats focuses on global cuisine and All-American hotness.
4. Aida Mollenkamp
A Cordon Bleu-trained (it's a fancy cooking school in Paris) pastry chef, this sexy Los Angeles native has two TV shows - Ask Aida, where she answers viewer questions, and foodCrafters, where she seeks out artisan cooks across the country - and a cookbook coming out this fall. Which is great, because we'd love to get our hands on her buns.
3. Giada DeLaurentiis
She's perky (her perma-smile gives us nightmares...sexy nightmares), pedigreed (her grandfather is legendary Hollywood producer Dino DeLaurentiis), and a master of the Italian language (she was born in Rome). Listening to her pronounce "fettuccini" is like being in the college language lab with headphones on, imagining the girl you're going to bone on the Eurail during your semester abroad.
2. Padma Lakshmi
This model and cookbook author treats every bite she takes as a Top Chef judge like a sexual experience. Watching her moan her way through a sticky foie-gras-stuffed cruller is a treat for the eyes, ears, and pants.
1. Paula Deen
Anthony Bourdain may think she's the most dangerous person in America thanks to her calorie-packed cooking, but we find danger sexy. Just imagining the slippery, sloppy butter-sex we'd have with Paula makes us...hungry for a bacon-wrapped, beer batter-fried stick of butter, weirdly.
