King Gorgeous Gorge and his Gluttons have cooked up a devious plan to rule the world & they sprinkled an extra dash of destruction. They plan to rule the world by kidnapping the best chefs & forcing them to make powerful foodons. A boy named Chase, a young apprentice chef w/an appetite for action, thinks he has what it takes to become an Elite Master Chef like his dad, Chef Jack. Chase believes that he, his friends, family, and Foodons can change the world one at a time, even if it involves going into battle against the Glutton Gormandizers, King Gorgeous Gorge's Big 4, & King Gorgeous Gorge's female cat-like servant, Clawdia. Then he'd have a final showdown with King Gorgeous Gorge.
