I could talk food all day. I love good food.
I like to use ‘I Can’t Believe it’s Not Butter’ on my toast in the morning, because sometimes when I eat breakfast, I like to be incredulous. How was breakfast? Unbelievable.

Eating is so intimate. It’s very sensual. When you invite someone to sit at your table and you want to cook for them, you’re inviting a person into your life.

Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.

Vegetarians are cool. All I eat are vegetarians – except for the occasional mountain lion steak.
A waffle is like a pancake with a syrup trap.
Stop being a vegan and start enjoying what you eat.
You learn to cook so that you don’t have to be a slave to recipes. You get what’s in season and you know what to do with it.
Part of the secret of a success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.
Human beings do not eat nutrients, they eat food.
Gluttony is an emotional escape, a sign something is eating us.
Like religion, politics, and family planning, cereal is not a topic to be brought up in public. It’s too controversial.
A woman should never be seen eating or drinking, unless it be lobster salad and Champagne, the only true feminine and becoming viands.
I’m Irish, so I’m used to odd stews. I can take it. Just throw a lot of carrots and onions in there and I’ll call it dinner.
The best comfort food will always be greens, cornbread, and fried chicken.
