I knew real Kobe beef was too expensive and limited quantity to actually be in the products claiming to be Kobe beef, but I didn’t know it was actually illegal to import to the US (on top of Japan’s own export restrictions).
The first time I saw that Dunkin Donuts commercial, I couldn’t help but think they’d confused the words ‘artisan’ and ‘shitty’, if the quality of their donuts are any indication.
As for American products that are artisanaly crafted, he left out moonshine.

I absolutely love Lewis Black, this was a quality bit. I just wish he was on more often. His perception about the things he targets is always absolutely spot on, come to think of it if Jon ever wanted to hang it up Lewis would be a fantastic replacement.
