Quote by C Pam Zhang

“Autumn was a harvest of big-box stores and their back-to-school sales: fruit leather, instant mac 'n' cheese, and bread that we unhusked, crinkling, from its plastic sleeve. My mouth watered for the sweetness of processed wheat sown thick through gas stations from California to New York. Honey Buns and Wonder Breads, in perfect squares and machined circles, and the ripe weight of a Danish, mass-produced, that attempts no fidelity to the country after which it is named--- no country but this one ambered by waves of industrial grain.”

First class chefs always read the meat's grain when they cook it!" "Don't forget the rice hiding under the beef petals! Steamed in butter and beef's own grease, this garlic rice is exquisite!”
