Picture MasterChef Junior Top 12
 I have watched every single season of MasterChef since it first aired in the US in 2010. But this season Gordon Ramsay has outdone himself, this season he has introduced to the Culinary world, Junior Chefs. And by juniors I mean children, most contestants aren't even teenagers yet. They are 10+ years younger than I am and they are cooking things I can't even pronounce, let alone cook. These kids are absolutely incredible. and I don't just mean with their cooking skills either; their parent should be proud of who they are being as people in this world. Each contestant undoubtedly has a career in the Culinary World, if they can cook things like Gordon Ramsay's own Beef Wellington, and receive comments like "absolutely incredible," and "... perfect Wellington."  Then I can only imagine how far these youngsters will go. 
So, let's meet them, from the youngest to the oldest, now remember these top twelve battled millions of other children chefs all across the country to get these spots.
