Right like it's astonishing to me that they didn't think to hire even 1 single American to tell them what to look for. A real argument for a guest judge or someone to make a baseline product so they actually get it.

An 8 year old American kid could've judged that episode more effectively than "no gooey marshmallows" Paul Hollywood.

They also had them make a “traditional Challah for Passover”. Passover.. as in that one Jewish holiday where not eating bread is the main event. GBBO is clearly averse to consulting anyone from the cultures their baking challenges are based on.

Lol they should have brought in a girl scout to dish out absolutely brutal judgements the whole time.
