Andrew Zimmern-Now there's a character. (He hosts Bizarre Foods on the Travel Channel)
It's not just the wierd gross foods he eats, but his analogies & comparisons that he makes that I watch the show for.
My classic favorite, this is what he said when eating a fish egg sac: "It's bitter like iodine" How the hell does he know what iodine tastes like?
When eating a roasted lamb's eyeball: "I can't really describe to you the texture of a roasted lamb's eyeball, but I'd say it's essence of the barnyard"
He frequently refers to things as "iron-y", "ammonious" or "ammoniated", "gamey", "mineral-y", and even copper. I love hearing the element comparisons, they're the greatest.
Today I coined his phrases "Zimmernisms". I will post more of these as I hear them on the show =D.
