Contacting contestants?


Does anyone know how to send a letter to a contestant? My daughters and I have gotten into this show, and my oldest especially was very sad to see this week's girl go. She wanted to write a letter to her to encourage her and tell her she was her favorite. I'm sure they keep a lot of the info private, but would a letter to the Food Network eventually get to her? Or maybe there's a more direct way to go?

Yes, I would e-mail Food Network and ask the question of them. They certainly wouldn't give you her address, but perhaps would forward it on to her. Alternatively, have you tried googling her name? And perhaps she has a Facebook page.

Remember that this was filmed months and months ago - I'm sure she is OK and doing well. 😉

I had the same thought actually - although after considering, it might not be easy to do, primarily owing to privacy, age considerations and the like. You might try contacting the Food Network. It certainly can't hurt to try!

You could try searching for a social media account under her name. I watch another reality show starring kids and many of their parents have Facebook pages for their kids.

Edited to add: If you are talking about Jane, it appears that she has an Instagram and a Twitter.

I was just sniffing around Facebook a bit and might have discovered a proper avenue, so to speak, for those folks wishing to send Peggy notes/messages, etc. She doesn’t have her own Facebook account that I could find, but there is this page at https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?id=128881117296842&story_fbid=473586146159669

“Like” the page and post – the standard drill. (The link as posted works. I just tested it to be sure.)

Not sure why I was thinking the original poster was referring to Jane - except that I am always a few days behind on episodes. Either way, hopefully the Facebook link can hook her up!

Peggy was my favorite by far. Now that she got voted off, I don't bother watching the show any more.

I agree about Peggy definitely. But since there was only one episode left, I watched.
