Andrew Zimmern Sings Pepto Bismol’s Praises [Video]

I want to like Andrew Zimmern. I really do. I appreciate what he’s doing, but I can’t help but think that he’s all too closely riding Bourdain’s coattails. Plus, he’s just not a very good television host. Note: my slurping rant.

But this is just positively painful. Between his all-pink get-up and the atrocious attempt at humor, I wanted to gouge my eyes and ears out with a melon baller eight seconds in.

Yikes.

Of course, the point of viral videos is to get people talking. The idea being that even if a dopey blogger like me writes about how awful it is, it’s still publicity. So … I suppose he knows what he’s doing there.
