    It's truly entertaining to watch Andrew Z. in "Bizarre Foods" because he's got that genuine personality; plus he acts naturally. I admire his willingness to try anything (food or non-food) wherever he goes. One of the funniest scene was when he was in India and went to spa/oil massage, everything was going well 'til he tried to sit on a wooden or rattan chair with his oily body when it fell apart! That chair wasn't stable enough. It was hilarious!!!! :)) :)) everytime i think of it, i can't stop laughing. Thank goodness for the cow "urine" concoction that he drank, he was okay. I like and respect that guy very much. He's show is indeed one of my fav!

    He's such a friendly guy who obviously really, deeply enjoys food. He also seems to love giving back that joy to those who cook for him. I enjoy watching the smiles on the faces of people as he eats LOL :)

    I enjoy watching Andrew and at times get a bit jealous of the food he eats. He is real, however, I am a bit concern about his health particularly his weight.
