"Food is the cornerstone upon which his career is based upon."

Okay, I know they didn't need two 'upons' in that sentence. I would prefer to see Food is the cornerstone upon which his career is based, but I can't think of why it shouldn't be Food is the cornerstone which his career is based upon. Can anyone tell me if it's just a matter of what you like the sound of, or is it really incorrect to finish up a sentence with 'upon'?

Old school purist is here. Technically, the comma goes before 'so.' Giggle.
