☆ 26 things you probably didn't know about 'The Great British Baking Show'
  + stars: | 2024-10-22 | by ( Chelsea Davis | Crystal Wall | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: 1 min
The show has a different name in the US because of Pillsbury. In the UK, the show is titled "The Great British Bake-Off." BBCThe series is called "The Great British Bake Off" in the UK and "The Great British Baking Show" in the US because the American baking company Pillsbury owns the trademark for the term "bake off." The term was used in 1949 when the brand celebrated its 80th anniversary by asking consumers for their best recipes using its flour. The top 100 submissions were entered in a live competition in New York City in the Grand National Recipe and Baking Contest — which later became known as the Pillsbury Bake-Off.

No one’s goose gets cooked during “ Mary Berry ’s Ultimate Christmas” and why is that? But geese are actually greasy, relatively meatless and too busy polluting public parks to make an appearance on TV. Besides, their absence is reassuring: The English may have given us our traditional Christmas celebration. And that’s what the merry Ms. Berry makes the main attraction of the elaborate meal she prepares—and more importantly plans for—in this hourlong tutorial on the art of the holiday. The music is a bit insistent about creating a mood, but Ms. Berry’s enthusiasm is real and never wavers.

We appreciate everything he’s done for Bake Off, from working in Covid bubbles to supporting the bakers. It’s been a pleasure”. “Bake Off” personalities Paul Hollywood and Dame Prue also tweeted their appreciation for Lucas, who acted as co-host on “The Great British Baking Show” since 2020, as well as spinoff series “The Great British Baking Show: Holidays,” “The Great British Bake Off: An Extra Slice,” and “The Great Celebrity Bake Off for SU2C.”No announcement has yet been made regarding who will replace Lucas in upcoming seasons in the “Bake Off” universe.

At another point, Fielding muses, “So, is Mexico a real place?” while Lucas, in turn, likens the country to Xanadu. 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 #GBBO pic.twitter.com/A4aX43H5rd — British Bake Off (@BritishBakeOff) October 4, 2022The episode’s flippant tone and use of stereotypes rubbed many viewers the wrong way. “But that would have called for more actual knowledge about Mexican culture and cuisine which is clearly lacking here.”CNN has reached out to “The Great British Bake Off” for comment. Since the first episode aired in 2010, “The Great British Bake Off” – which streams stateside as “The Great British Baking Show” – has become a cultural phenomenon, soothing viewers with its spirit of camaraderie and offering them an escape.
