Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that since the host of this series purposely seeks out unusual food choices -- by American standards, that is -- viewers will see him eat things like rodents, insects, fertilized eggs, and whole baby chickens on a stick. Outdoor market scenes often show animal carcasses and seafood being butchered, so this probably isn't for the littlest viewers -- or older ones with weak stomachs.

Sexual Content

Occasionally food is referred to as an aphrodisiac.

Violence

All kinds of animals, fish, and insects are eaten whole (including heads, feet, and wings) -- some while they're still alive. Many scenes show animal carcasses being butchered.
