Drowning in Old Whiskey River

This just in: Willie Nelson bought the Food Network.

I'm on break, which naturally means that I'm watching a lot of TV. Tonight's Emeril featured Willie Nelson as a guest band, and then Food Finds spotlighted...you guessed it, Willie Nelson.

He has a new whiskey out, aptly named Old Whiskey River. Emeril glazed a ham with it; Food Finds followed it to Texas Roadhouse. However, Food Finds also said that it was produced at Heaven Hill distillery. I hadn't realized that Heaven Hill was a high-quality distillery (isn't it in a plastic bottle?), but Emeril seemed to think that it was the best whiskey ever produced. Who knows. I'm just sick of Willie Nelson peddling his wares.

In other news, my new favorite food show is A Cook's Tour. Currently, it's more fun than Alton Brown...

I haven't decided whether this is good or bad; I just don't want every show to be Willie Nelson themed.
