I thought that was a good idea and watching the show it was obviously edited to make it look worse than it actually was.

I would have invested in that over the other plans, but I do feel it would have benefited from a slightly different angle.

Such a big % of UK population watch the apprentice, and most people cook, so his brand already had some priceless marketing exposure. That's why investors are are probably jumping in. Else would probably need much more than £250k to have any chance. Must be huge technical costs involved too and good luck to them getting it all working seamlessly with supermarket systems.
Exciting to try it out, if it will work as it meant to

Slightly off topic, but if you like the apprentice watch this - Cassetteboy meets the apprentice - and note the comment about a career in the media!
