Cringeworthy comment, according to culinary insiders' whispers, after all, legendary Iron Chef John McCain, with 26 years experience, is, after all,
experienced.

Legendary Iron Chef John McCain is shuffling toward the meat rack. Surrounded by sous chefs, it's difficult to say exactly what he's doing.
Back on the other side of Kitchen Stadium, Challenger Obama has rinsed his beans, pouring the beans into a collander to drain. He's stirring, he's mashing.
He's grabbing some arugula . . .
Legendary Iron Chef McCain has reappeared alongside the grilltop, holding what looks like five pounds of ground beef. The sous chefs swarm around him, forming a human barrier . . .
Meanwhile, Chef Obama is chopping garlic and red chilis with one hand and kneading pita dough with the other.
