Season 4 of Supermarket Stakeout's cooking reality show is premiering on May 17. The show is hosted by Alex Guarnaschelli, a famous chef and author who has a net worth of $2 million. She is currently the executive chef at Butter in New York City.

Guarnaschelli has been hosting the show for the last three years, and she is back, raising the stakes for the chefs in Supermarket Stakeout’s fourth season.

Food Network’s Supermarket Stakeout, hosted by Alex Guarnaschelli, features four chefs from different parts of the world competing in a culinary battle where they have to shop from a grocery store and prepare dishes based on a theme. Moreover, they will have to negotiate with the shopkeepers to sell them the desired item on a particular budget.

The official synopsis of the show reads:

"Alex Guarnaschelli hosts four chefs square off in a competitive pop-up kitchen outside a grocery store. Assigned a theme for each round, the chefs must size up shoppers as they exit the store and attempt to negotiate for their grocery bags. The judges send the chefs with the least successful dishes home, and the last chef standing walks away with a year's worth of groceries."
