Andrew Zimmern cemented his place in culinary pop culture as a world-traveling scholar of food from around the world on his hit Travel Channel series “Bizarre Foods.” The show lasted a mind-blowing 20 seasons and inspired a number of spinoffs since its 2006 debut. Zimmern has hosted several other food shows to boot.
As a TV host, Zimmern is affable, charming and knowledgeable. As a chef, he’s an award-winning success. But if you had met him 30 years ago, you may not have even recognized him. In his teens and early twenties, he struggled with addiction and even found himself without a home for a time. It’s been quite a journey, and Andrew Zimmern’s transformation is seriously turning heads.
