    Agreed. I think the badge videos where everyone did the same thing for badges is perfect but these random badges aren't that great. When everyone gets the meringue badge when only one person actually made meringue it kinda defeats the purpose of the badges to begin with. Likewise, Berry being instructed on how to make his pastry and then receiving a badge for it really undermines the whole premise behind the badge system/game. The badges are meant to see who is more "chef-y", as in who can cook the best without assistance from chefs.

No flambe on mushrooms: potential fail on flavor. Barry and his loose bottom: fail fail fail.

    @@deprofundis3293 - Love how you're literally copy-pasting this exact same comment underneath anyone criticizing Barry. Pretty sure the man's already married, stop trying so hard. If Ben hadn't correctly eye-balled the ingredients he'd put out for Barry then there wouldn't have been pastry to begin with. If Ben hadn't corrected him on the big ball for resting the dough wouldn't have rested in time to be used. And if Ben hadn't called it out, Barry wouldn't have egg-washed it. And with all that help; the bottom still puffed up, the edges had to be repaired, the top had to be repaired, he didn't have time to crunch his chicken skin over the top, and the bottom wasn't baked enough. Not to mention this was a second attempt at the dish, he _knew_ he was going for the pastry badge,.. overall just a poor performance. Compare that to Mike who went in for the seasoning badge, actually displayed his knowledge on the topic by talking about the triangle. Correcting all by himself the salty jus with a bit of sugar, and then correctly balancing it all out with the rest of the burger. To the point where it was the winning dish. Displayed knowledge and skill and independence, no chef help, and won the challenge too.

On the other hand Mike is still missing his unusual ingredients badge that he definitely earned. By my count it should be Jamie and Mike tied at the top and Barry one badge behind, or maybe a 3 way tie if you insist on giving Barry the pastry badge because he DID successfully fix it even though he was helped a bit

    While Barrys pastry were alot better than last time, i feel like he got a fair amount of help! What if he had put his pastry in the fridge, as a ball instead of first being told to flatten it, where would he have ended then? If we look to Mike, he realised his Jus were too salted because of over reducing it and corrected it by using some sugar. While we don't see if it's actually Ben or someone else pointing it out to Mike, it gets showed as if he figured it out himself, while Barry got fair help with his Pastry. I just get the feeling that the Badges would mean more, if they were earned "alone". Of course if they are going really off track, hint to them instead of just telling them what to do! :D
