Whoever talked him into starting this venture must have a serious gift of gab because as a business model, I can see several things that look very risky, one the whole incident we all know about which doesn't make him the model spokesperson for anything, then, he only appeals to a very small market. Very small. It would have to be an insanely good product to survive in this economy with a very long burn rate to even break even years from now. Then, as someone stated, the market is flooded. I think it could work with another player but not him. This would have been something the late Norman Hand probably could have pulled off. I would have bought any food related product from him. He looked like a man who knew about food.
