I enjoy a Frito pie at high school sporting events.
He also called it a “colostomy pie.” But now Anthony Bourdain has sort of apologized for some of his comments on an episode of CNN’s Parts Unknown after insulting the “World Famous” Frito pies served up at Santa Fe's Five & Dime General Store’s snack bar in New Mexico.
In the episode, he described the dish as canned Hormel chili covered in a “‘day-glow orange cheese-like substance.” And then he further insulted New Mexicans by telling them that the Frito pie should be left to their neighbors: "New Mexico, you have many wonderful things," Bourdain said. "I think, let Texas have this one."
But Mike Collins, manager of the Five & Dime General Store, has responded to the Hormel accusation, clarifying that their chili is homemade and contains fresh chile grown in New Mexico. The store’s spokeswoman Karen Reynolds also told the Associated Press that Bourdain enjoyed the pie, even though the episode did not present it that way. Bourdain confirmed this in a statement:
"Contrary to the impression left by some reports of the show, I, in fact, very much enjoyed my Frito pie in spite of its disturbing weight in the hand. It may have felt like (expletive) but was shockingly tasty.”
According to Yelp, the Five & Dime currently has three stars after 15 reviews, and though no reviews mention (expletives) or colostomies, several mention the crappy cheese:
Well, some people swear by the Frito pie. While I can appreciate the years of dedication and culinary training it must have taken to be able to fill a bag of chips with chile and low-grade cheese, I'd much rather save five bucks and undertake the Herculean task myself. Just like with their inedible stock, they are really just dishing out cheap garbage at high prices for a captive tourist clientele.

Nigga said it was "delicious"; don't see what that New Mexico got is crying about.
No I took two seconds out of my day to check on this thread because I like Anthony Bourdain and discovered it was one of 1000 threads created by you about boring every day .
Three people make comments and you follow it up with "I don't like cheese on mine." ing really? Stop the ing presses, Judy doesn't like cheese on her frito pies!!Do you ever make interesting or useful contributions to any thread? Or is it all stupid and uninteresting observations along with your boring opinion about what you like on your sandwiches or what dip you enjoy with Ruffles?
I don't know why people feel like they constantly need to apologize for comments made in jest.
You missed out pickle, imho.
Bourdain rocks. I may be meeting him soon
