  • Good Lord, What Did His Mama Feed HIM?!

    3.0
    By RobertShirell, Aug 21, 2012
    Zimmerman himself unconsciously reviews his own fetish for ghoulish "food" by having adopted the word "ridiculous" to mean "delicious." I guess it's supposed to be "kewel" for supposed grownups to adopt valley-girlish, air-headed inspirations such as using ironic language to mean the exact opposite of its true definition, but all too often when adults do it the result is merely a Freudian slip.

    Oh, dear. It's one thing to host a world travel show. I love travel, I love learning about cultures, and I enjoy trying something new to eat. But what on Earth possesses people, any people, to try and eat the intimate parts of cattle and insects, eyeballs, various sacs filled with fluid, and other things that are disgusting just to think about? One of the most disappointing things about this show is, oddly, the host doesn't tell you that much about the actual flavor of each item. He describes the part of the animal from which it's taken, which is bad enough, but after putting you through all this agony, he then chews a few times and invariably says, "Awesome." That's it! Not how spicy it was, not how squishy, not "It's sort of like halibut," nothing at all to help us viewers make our way through the maze of information. If you're going to show us nasty stuff, don't make it look like everything on Earth tastes the same. It can't. So if the host is not going to act as the viewer's friend, why bother? The only thing that's left is a bunch of things that will make you throw up. I'm going to stay dull and order a pizza, thank you. At least I know where it's been.moreless

  • I like food.

    This is a show you shouldn't take seriously. If you are a weak stomach kind of person, this show will not be for you. If you are a person that likes to be entertained, then look no further than Bizzare Foods. I have seen some very disturbing dishes of "food" and I have to say that I get a sick thrill watching the new and disgusting dishes that are shown around the world. Now most of what is being eaten on the show are things I would NEVER eat, but it is fun watching someone else take the bullet. This is a great show to watch if you feel like getting sick. Thank you.moreless

  • "Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern" is definitely the most interesting show about food I've ever seen.

    What's the nastiest food you've eaten? Well if you thought that was nasty, watch Andrew Zimmern eat many bizarre foods from a variety of cooked animal penises to stinky tofu garnished with 1,000-year-old egg! Andrew Zimmern is a courageous fellow with a strange appetite. He'll try just about anything. But, of course, not all strange foods can be found in the United States, so he travels around the world in search of these delicacies that can't be found in our neighborhoods. Of course, he goes through some nasty foods, but it seems as though he's not afraid of anything. Each show is packed with tons of weird foods. Some will make you laugh; some will make you cringe; some may even make your mouth water. Who knows? I think this guy is the only guy who ever made eating brains look good to me! I recommend this show for people intrigued by this sort of thing. But, even if you aren't you may want to watch it anyway. It might become one of your favorite shows on television.moreless
