With all of the cable channels, I often lose him. By being on CNN I'll watch him more often.

Only food/travel show Ive ever liked is Man vs Food. I think it was because it was exclusively American stuff, and nothing exotic, just good ol' fashioned things like hamburgers, and in cities you might actually ever go.

From reading this, its going to be another one of those globe trotting, exotic, foods youd never eat (and probably never get a chance to any how)......not my thing.

Don't project that onto me. I'd probably try a lot of what Anthony Bourdain covers in his show. If you understand his main thesis, it is basically about understanding people and their cultures, and getting to know them through the food they eat. I've travelled abroad a lot, and eaten some wonderful (and some weird) things. Getting to know and understand people and cultures by sitting down to dine with them, and to learn the background is a beautiful thing.
