Food Network Star would be a great show without Giada’s breasts getting in the way–or, at least, that seems to be the concensus of a vocal and persistent group of fans of Food Network’s flagship competition programme.

There’s some solid buzz surrounding Eddie Jackson, winner of the most recent season of Food Network Star, and the star of BBQ Blitz, his own upcoming Food Network program. While Eddie has a ton of experience both in the kitchen and on the football field (more on that in just a second) he’s still an unfamiliar face…
Eddie Jackson: 34, former professional defensive back in the NFL, and, now, the newest winner of Food Network Star.
