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.
