Mary Berg: The Next Big Thing

This is Mary Berg’s moment. If you haven’t noticed, Mary is everywhere these days. She’s already been on our radar as the winner of MasterChef Canada, the host of two cooking shows, the author of three cookbooks and now … the host of The Good Stuff with Mary Berg, a new national daytime talk and lifestyle series replacing the irreplaceable Marilyn Denis on CTV’s fall schedule. Despite her pretty damn adorable appearance, Mary is no lightweight: she learned to cook as the result of a family tragedy. She has degrees in history, English and information science. She worked as an insurance broker, then quit to compete in MasterChef - without any formal culinary training. Sure, Mary makes it easy, but we know better. We talk recipes and entertaining tips, but also how exciting - and daunting - it is to be on the precipice of being the next big thing.
