LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'MasterChef: Generations' Season 14 contestant Anna Johnson won the Week 2's 'Age is Just a Number' challenge immunity pin and saved her entire generation, the Millennials, from elimination. Additionally, Millennials will also get a massive advantage in the next week's challenge.

She prepared Oil-Poached Aged Snapper with Aged Chorizo Sauce and Lemon Herbed Fregola and explained, she was "trying to take it to Spain.' Anna's dish impressed the Fox show judges, Gordon Ramsay, Aarón Sánchez, and Joe Bastianich with her top dish. However, Aarón suggested that she should cook the meat more.

Gordon called the dish "elegant" and "restaurant-quality." Meanwhile, the other two judges complied with the perfectly cooked fish. Additionally, she cooked the dish in olive oil to make it moist and the garnish of the dish "lights that fish up". Despite the judges' praise, the viewers seemed quite furious with Anna receiving the immunity pin. A social media user tweeted, "Idk Anna’s dish looked boring..."

Another person added, "How is Anna's sashimi lookong thing get top 3." Another critic noted, "Ew what did Anna make??" Another internet user penned, "That poor snapper." Another Reddit user said, "Getting tired of the immunity pin saving people who deserve to go home." Another viewer commented, "Anna's snapper looked really disgusting she should not have won that pin."

What advantage does week 1 immunity pin winner Rebecka Evans get?

'MasterChef: Generations' Season 14 contestant Rebecka Evans saved her Baby Boomers team from Week 1 elimination after she won the immunity pin.

However, Rebecka admitted in the latest episode that she was 'so torn' while making the decision. She added, "I've got to be strategic about what I'm doing. Rebecka then gave the surprise 18-month-old 'stilton cheese' to Gen X because they had "so many powerful cooks"
