The only "Emeril" branded anything I've bought was his BBQ sauce. It was
okay, but nothing special. I keep wanting to try his heirloom tomatoes,
but the suckers are just so damn ugly I can't imagine eating one of
them. Normally, I don't get put off by how something looks....(I eat
lobster, oysters, etc. all the time), but there's just something about
these things that sends a shiver down my spine.
