  • Adored by the Network: And how![context?]
  • Hey, It's That Guy!: Several chefs from Chopped make appearances in other Food Network shows or are profiled as well.
    • On season 8 of Food Network Star Giada's team visited Arthur Avenue (the original Little Italy) and Arther Avenue Trattoria and Mike's Deli. The chef/owner competed in the Cornish hen episode.
    • Speaking of Food Network Star, Michele Ragussis once competed on Chopped and now has a chance to get her own show.
    • Michael Gilletto is one odd case. As The Other Wiki notes, he appears on Restaurant: Impossible as one of the four chefs to become the head chef. He initially wins, but it was clear he was having second thoughts and did not take the job after all. Later, when Food Network aired a short home-cooked version (aptly named "The Chopped Open Your Basket Challenge, essentially a promo advertisement), he's one of the judges.
    • As noted on Sweet Genius, several chefs have competed on both Chopped and Sweet Genius.
  • You Might Remember Me From: Chopped has become one of the premiere food competitions that it's not uncommon for chefs being profiled to mention that they were on Chopped.
  • What Could Have Been: Ted Allen humorously remarked that Chopped was going to take place in an eccentric millionaire's mansion with the losing dish in each round going to the chihuahua. It was too much for Food Network.
