Another nice thing was that I would type out letters home for the admiral's stewards. They would then feed me the same food the admiral ate.

I think the most wonderful thing in the world is another chef. I'm always excited about learning new things about food.

I don't think any other holiday embraces the food of the Midwest quite like Thanksgiving. There's roasted meat and mashed potatoes. But being here is also about heritage. Cleveland is really a giant melting pot - not only is my family a melting pot but so is the city.

My grandmother was the greatest cook in the world. She could just go in there the whole kitchen would look like a tornado hit it and then she'd come out with the best food. Then she'd sit at the table and she wouldn't eat!

Food is meant to be used as fuel for our bodies. If you're using it for any other reasons take a step back and ask yourself 'What's up.'

The public should know that the liability issues here have yet to be resolved or even raised. If you're a farmer and you're growing a genetically engineering food crop those genes are going to flow to the other farm.

St. Louis has a lot of weird food customs that you don't see other places - and a lot of great ethnic neighborhoods. There's a German neighborhood. A great old school Italian neighborhood with toasted ravioli which seems to be a St. Louis tradition. And they love provolone cheese in St. Louis.

I can safely say that other than macaroni and cheese there's no processed food in my life. There's no inorganic food in my life these days. There's no junk food. There's not a lot of sugar. There's no soy. I mean really everything that's going into my body is pretty pure.

Everyone prefers some foods over others but some adults take this tendency to an extreme. These people tend to prefer the kinds of bland food they may have enjoyed as children - such as plain or buttered pasta macaroni and cheese cheese pizza French fries and grilled cheese sandwiches - and to restrict their eating to just a few dishes.

A human being has been given an intellect to make choices and we know there are other food sources that do not require the killing of a creature that would protest being killed.

Good food and a warm kitchen are what makes a house a home. I always tried to make my home like my mother's because Mom was magnificent at stretching a buck when it came to decorating and food. Like a true Italian she valued beautification in every area of her life and I try to do the same.

You know how you wake up in the morning and sometimes you look gorgeous and other times you look like you got hit by a mack truck? I realized that my mack truck is food. If I have no sugar yeast or wine I have no undereye bags and my skin is perfect.

Food during my early years was a very difficult issue for me. I grew up in an addictive family. My mother had serious problems with alcohol and prescription drugs. I was an overweight kid. I can remember back in those days there weren't the strategies that there are today to deal with those issues.

I don't let it bother me too much if someone doesn't like me. I just figure there's no accounting for taste. It's not me it's my acting. It's like if someone doesn't like someone's food they just don't like my acting.

It's all about who's where on the food chain. When I'm the story editor I expect my writers to follow my vision. When I'm working for another editor I'm obliged to follow their vision.

Without food man can live at most but a few weeks without it all other components of social justice are meaningless.

My grandfather gave me inspiration to cook and love food and flavors. My Aunt Raffie gave me creativity and the inspiration to create new things. My mother inspires me to find simplicity in food.

There are realities we all share regardless of our nationality language or individual tastes. As we need food so do we need emotional nourishment: love kindness appreciation and support from others.

I like food like any other guy but it is not the main thing in my life. I can do without it.

I think people are smart enough to sort it out. They know when they're watching one of these food fight shows where journalists sit around and yell and scream at each other versus serious issue reporting.

Those other 10 o'clock shows that come on all you get from them is headaches and nightmares when you go to bed! At least we give you food know what I mean?

I am thankful I was born in America although if I gain any more weight the burqa thing may start to seem like a good idea to me. See? Another plus about America you can always find some food.

The highlight of my childhood was making my brother laugh so hard that food came out of his nose.

If your mother cooks Italian food why should you go to a restaurant?
