Maybe you want to be him when you grow up, maybe you see him as your future husband, or maybe he just creeps you out. Culled from his book, Guy on Fireas well as DVR-ing countless hours of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Guy has gone on recored to say some pretty wack things. Whether you love him or hate him, here are some of the strangest things he’s ever said about food.

Nope, let’s just call it Russian dressing.

Take a shot whenever Guy Fieri says “Flavortown.”

What are the odds, Guy?

9. “Living in Cali, I’m cooking in the yard all the time. I don’t care what the weather is like. My hair is impervious to any kind of dampness, so I don’t have too much to worry about.”
