Host Jonathan Bennett goes old school with a trip back to 1953, when Campbell's soup, Spam and gelatin molds were all the rage, and the chefs will have to use a vintage 1950's meat grinder to create dishes of today. Then, it's smiles all around as the competitors take on the smiley fries food trend before judges Antonia Lofaso and Xea Myers decide which chef's cioppino is a real winner.

Host Jonathan Bennett takes a trip back to 1994 with some help from special guest judge Wayne Knight, aka Newman from "Seinfeld." The chefs joke about their varying memories of the '90s as they use the iconic George Foreman Grill to create elevated dishes out of popular foods from the decade: muffin tops, chicken breasts, ranch dressing and Lucky Charms. Then, new school and old school chefs alike learn how difficult it is to recreate the viral "accordion potato" food trend, and judges Kathy Fang and Peter Fang use a classic beef Wellington to determine which chef prevails.
