In the acclaimed series, Cooking in the Danger Zone, award-winning food writer Stefan Gates eats fat-tailed sheep with Taliban warlords in Afghanistan, yak penis with Communist officials in China and UN subsistance rations with refugees in Uganda. The result is a ground-breaking and sometimes shocking television series that uses food to understand a world in crisis. Behind the scenes as each trip unfolds, Stefan struggles to avoid making a grotesque parody of a reality TV cookery show, keeping a diary of his experiences and the emotional rollercoaster that he finds himself on as he goes. His account is a mixture of comedy and tragedy - a travelogue that blends culture, food and politics, and ultimately a journey into some sort of enlightenment in the midst of chaos and ambiguity.
