Joe Ray learned to take ‘clean shots’ from François Simon, the legendary French food critic who was the inspiration for the character Anton Ego in Pixar’s Ratatouille.
Of course, taking a ‘clean shot’ is writing an honest and straightforward review, but more than that, it means backing it all up, especially when the reviewer is putting a critical lens to a product.
That’s exactly what Ray does in his coverage of food and cooking tech for Wired, and it’s why he’s one of my favorite reviewers of kitchen gadgets. I sat down with Joe to talk about air fryers, Alexa, his review of the Mellow and writing for Simon.
