Bizarre Foods

The Travel Channel is cool. But my favorite show on there has little to do with traveling to exotic destination spots. This is more a show for The Food Network, but I can guess why it isn't on there.

The show is called "Bizarre Foods". It's hosted by this short, fat, bald dude Andrew Zimmern. The premise of the show is for Andrew to travel across the world and sample strange cuisine from places in Europe, India, Africa, Asia, etc. And when I say strange cuisines, I mean shit that will make a billie goat puke. Stuff that is considered normal for that region, but you'd have a hard time finding in the states. You'd even have a hard time finding the INGREDIENTS here in America.

Bugs, fishheads, donkey, cat feet.

The only problem I have with the show is that the host lacks credibility. *I've watched the show 100 times and have yet to see him eat anything he didn't enjoy. With all the vile slop he's put into his mouth you figure at least one time he'd say, "Yeah, not really my cup of tea. Kinda tastes like I just licked a toilet."......... let alone gag and hurl on his plate.

He will sit with a jungle tribe in the South Pacific and eat liquified stink bug with dustmite crackers and he would ooohhhh and aaahhhh at the exquisite taste.

Perhaps he doesn't want to offend anybody. That's fine, but I don't buy into the fact that everything tastes good. I am an easy person to please regarding food and even I find some normal foods, let alone Kangaroo ass, disgusting.

(* Zimmern's top 10 list of gross foods is bullshift. He's never made one.)
