I read that as subtle background. It's more suitable...

[–]CuriousGM 58 points59 points ago

The leaf stem blended into his cheek also looks like a scar, just adds to his gangster credentials.

[–]Tumite 22 points23 points ago

Twist: OP's nephew really did have a scar, it was just hidden by the stem

I think it looks as though he's shouting into a telephone, presumably at the unfortunate person who just lost a shipment of bootleg booze to the Feds.

As much as I love that man's show (I really do), you'd think that as a food show host and a professional eater he would know how to chew with his mouth shut.

It honestly baffles me.
