mangoandtabasco/Flickr Bourdain: Fan of violent cable programming?
We asked rabid Anthony Bourdain fans to rip their souls open for us in mini essays. This one's from Marcie Chin, who, we're guessing, took a couple of sociology classes in college and likes to snuggle up with premium cable. Thanks, Marcie!
I love Anthony Bourdain because he uses food as a vehicle NOT for "learning
