'The bagel, an unsweetened doughnut with rigor mortis.'
~ Beatrice & Ira Freeman
'Other things are just food. But chocolate's chocolate.'
~ Patrick Skene Catling
'There are three possible parts to a date, of which at least two must be offered: entertainment, food, and affection. It is customary to begin a series of dates with a great deal of entertainment, a moderate amount of food, and the merest suggestion of affection. As the amount of affection increases, the entertainment can be reduced proportionately. When the affection IS the entertainment, we no longer call it dating. Under no circumstances can the food be omitted.'
~ Miss Manners' Guide to Excruciatingly
'Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.'
~ Mark Twain
