Food: Where's Macaroni?
Food Network travel show where three internationally renowned celebrities travel the world with Bubba. Bubba doesn't like fancy, doesn't trust foreign, and needs to get drunk to eat any fish if he can't at least hear the stream it was caught in. Spends most of each show trying to explain iced tea to an increasingly perplexed wait staff.
Or descibing Spaghetti-O's to offended Italians.
Bubba's understanding is that he's the 'control,' the baseline for American viewers wondering what food would be available if they traveled. Do they got hamburgers, or macaroni salad, in Yemen?
Really, he is a competition. In two months, the show goes to Viet Nam.
There, the first traveler to get Bubba to KNOWINGLY eat or drink cobra (cobra venom soup, fried cobra bones, cobra tacos, whatever) wins a gazillion dollars. Every episode til then allows them to develop strategies to get him to eat outrageous shit.
So, we have to wonder, getting him that cobra tattoo in Copenhagen? Was that testing a tactic? Or was Kim laying the groudwork for the climax?
