Eddie Gourmand is a famous television food critic. He is frequently judging Vito's pizza to see if it is right. His TV studio is located at 747 Waffle Street.
Physical appearance[]
Eddie has light blond hair, a mole in his left cheek, and wears a purple flannel jacket with a pink shirt, deep-magenta pants with a lavender and white neckerchief for eating, and brown shoes.
Personality[]
Eddie has a harsh, biased, and impatient behavior. He has variable views on people and places like Vito's Pizzeria. He appears to be a narcissist who only promotes his own opinions based on the song "I'm a Genius" in "Lasagna Tree".
One of the primary reasons why Eddie has a harsh attitude is because of his spoiled personality, feeling that his mother does not give him attention. In "Inside Eddie Gourmand", it is revealed by Dr. Whipple that Eddie was spoiled too much as a kid, even going to the point to manipulate his mother, saying that she does not love him. Eddie loses contact and stops talking to her when he realizes that he is not able to eat excessive amounts of her food anymore. This leads Eddie to take out his anger on Vito.
