Viewers of MasterChef Australia: Foodies Vs Favorites, 11th from Season 1 of the series.
After Matt Preston, George Calombaris, and Gary Mehigan were not shown, Twitter exploded and audiences turned to the show.

The trio were replaced by current judges Jock Zonfrillo, Andy Allen and Melissa Leong in a controversial move in 2019.
One fan wrote “Dear” 15 times on Twitter: “Changes will not be shown to former judges”.
Another fan reacted enthusiastically during editing, claiming that the current judges were the show’s “original” judges.
Hmmm: Some viewers were not happy with the changes. Others question the lack of “diversity” among judges in recent years
“These whipping judges are acting like they’re the real judges on these people’s journeys! No it wasn’t Summer!!!’ the audience was disgusted.
‘Role play! Look who won Andy “judge”. Whoever is in front of him is like a slap in the face,” they added.
Another wrote: “Yes, I quit when three of them came off”.
Others question the lack of “diversity” in judges in recent years.
