One of the show's primary appeals is that the businesses featured on the show can ship many of their products directly to customers. As such, the program always includes information about how to order the items featured on the show.
Before Food network settled on "Road Tasted", the show had the working title "Two for the Road".
The Deen brothers eventually decided that they wanted to devote more time to their family restaurant, and thus did not continue on as hosts of "Road Tasted." The original show has since been changed into "Road Tasted with the Neelys" featuring the Food Network hosts Pat
and Gina Neely.
