The use of the word "chef" is pretty loose considering who tops this list, but Forbes rounds up the Ten Top-Earning Celebrity Chefs. None other than Rachael Ray tops the list, raking in about $18 million a year for all of her EVOOness, with Wolfgang Puck a close second pulling $16 mil for his branded empire. Rounding out the top ten: Gordon Ramsay ($7.5mil), Alain Ducasse and Nobu Matsuhisa ($5 mil), Paula Deen ($4.5 mil), Mario Batali ($3 mil), Tom Colicchio ($2 mil), and Bobby Flay and Anthony Bourdain ($1.5 mil).
