You should have heard him trying to say "molcajete" on one of his older
shows. As near as I can reproduce what he said, it came out
"mole-cal-HELL-ta-lay."

Let's not also forget that his was the voice-over chosen to promote
"Gwillin' and Chillin'" week on Food Network.

Even so, I've noticed that his cooking on Iron Chef America has become more
varied and interesting these last couple of years, and that's what people
REALLY ought to care about, isn't it?
