Obscure cable food show ID needed!

All I can remember is this show used to air a couple years ago in the wee small hours of the morning right after an Anthony Bourdain show. It was a travelogue, hosted by an old British guy, basically following a given ingredient from the ground to the plate.

The specific episode I can remember was on vanilla: he went from the plantation, in search of an old woman running the whole distribution business on the island, spent an afternoon with a couple and the wife made a dessert of papaya baked with sugar and vanilla, and topped with vanilla ice cream... It's going to drive me COMPLETELY insane if I can't find the name of the host or the show.

Was it maybe Floyd on Food? He was a real charactor.

I think it was called Follow That Food with Gordon Elliot. It is still on the Food Network sometime during the day.

"hosted by an old British guy," - Gorden Elliot....geez, he's young enuf to be my son :crazy:

Definitely NOT Gordon Elliot. This gentleman had seen 60 and kept on going.

Not Floyd either. I know the production side of television, and this was definitely not shot in the 80s, or by the BBC. Mid-90s at the absolute earliest for a production date, and looking much more recent than that.

I want to say "Grocer" was somewhere in the title, I'm just not certain.

Look at this

imho, Gordon Elliott looks younger now than he did 15 yrs ago.

I was going to say Floyd ... liked his show.
