On my trip to Thailand I decided the bizzar foods guy ain't hard core. He can't even deal with Durian and I didn't think it was bad. I'd eat it again and dude gags just coming near it.

I think they should give his show to me instead.

I've never had durian but have been given mixed reviews. Some people love it and others can't stand it. Everyone says it smells horrible though. I'm going to have to pick one up one of these days and try it.

Andrew Zimmern is the shit, plain and simple. cool as hell in person too,
I agree I enjoy this Zimmerman's show. Takes courage to do what he does haha.

But seriously it's a great show besides some of the gross factor you really get to learn about various places, their culture and of course what they eat.

also I like how he just doesn't go to the best known/famous restaurants, this guy goes to the most remote villages, the poorest of the poor and gets down and dirty and eats whatever they are eating.

That's true now that I think about it, some of the other guys will be like "Here I am at this ballin ass steak house which you will never be let into because you're not famous like me" ....its like you can relate more to Zimmerman.

zimmerman is cool, a lot of people in america are just sheltered when it comes to eating animals, they'll eat the fuck out of a hot dog filled with rotten meat from every single part of a chicken or pig but get all grossed out if something like duck or cow toungue get's thrown at their pallete.

i like the show but one thing i can't stand about it is dude smacking his lips hella loud and talking in the middle of eating the food. you can tell most of the time the locals get aggitated about it too.

the mongolian one wasn't that bad as far as the shit they eat compared to some other places, it just showed how little they got - just meat, milk that's about it! and they use all of it and are creative in using their resources.

It was more interesting just to see how remote Mongolia is and checking out the nomads. It's rare we (or at least I) get a glimpse into modern day Mongolia.

I seriously doubt you would east some of shit he does man!
Sure I would, especially now that he lost so much cred with me over the durian thing. I figure the stuff he eats must not be that bad if he can't even down the durian.

I mean really he only takes two bites. How hard is that?

I know he makes more than I do every year for less work and a much cooler job. I'd take half his pay and still do his job.

It is worth trying if for no other reason than you can tell people you tried it.

Once you get past the smell (if you can) it kinda disappears. It has an almondy liquor taste to it with a custard consistancy.

Smells like a rotting fish in a dirty sweat sock.
