Stupid Extreme Cuisine type shows.

I know Andrew Zimmern had his on the Travel channel, and now Steve Corwin has his on the Food Network (which as a network is tanking, not money wise but well content wise).

They really do annoy me. I do not mind that they travel to assorted locations to try assorted dishes that either are acquired tastes, necessities to live, or well lets be honest freak show dishes for shits and giggles that we even have in the US to our own degree. Even if they are not made from strange proteins.

Anyways at least in Steve's instance he really seems to do a disservice to the places he visits. They give the idea and almost take the stance that the super odd things they hunt out, skipping over some common things they do cover are everyday type fair and that is what the locals just eat.

Forget that they will give bad info calling one area the culinary capitol of a given country/region when it is not. Then they bypass hundreds of years to centuries of culinary history and cuisine - to focus in on something that people rarely eat and then on top of it joke about them in the process. That or bitching about the process, tastes, etc.

OK rant over. Yeah I know you couple assholes, it has nothing to do with the adult business. Get over it.
