Taste: My Life Through Food Quotes

“It is the connection between customer and purveyor that makes our interactions stronger, to me eating well is not just about what tastes good but about the connections that are made through the food itself. I am hardly saying anything new by stating that our links to food have practically disappeared between sheets of plastic wrap but what are also disappearing are the wonderful vital human connections that we make when we buy something we love to eat from someone who loves to sell it, who bought it from someone who loves to grow it, catch it, or raise it. Whether we know it or not, great comfort is found in these relationships and they are very much a part of what solidifies a community.”

“Losing a beloved family heirloom is a very real personal loss; they're things that cannot ever be replaced or re-created. But perhaps the most precious heirlooms are family recipes. Like a physical heirloom, they remind us from whom and where we came and give others, in a bite, the story of another people from another place and another time. Yet unlike a lost physical heirloom, recipes are a part of our history that can be re-created over and over again. The only way they can be lost is if we choose to lose them.”
