“I don't really have a fear of doctors, in the sense that they're going to do something bad to me. I don't have a fear of them eating me, or a fear of needles, or anything like that. I have a fear that I'm feeling completely fine, everything's good, and then when I go there, he's going to tell me something horrible.” FeelingsFineEatingDoctorsHorribleNeedles Author:Rob Zombie

“Talleyrand said that two things are essential in life: to give good dinners and to keep on fair terms with women. As the years pass and fires cool, it can become unimportant to stay always on fair terms either with women or one's fellows, but a wide and sensitive appreciation of fine flavours can still abide with us, to warm our hearts.” GivingYearsHeartSaidStillsTwoTermFriendshipFireFineEssentialsEatingFairsFellowsAppreciationWarmDinnerWideSensitiveTwo ThingsUnimportantFlavour Book:The Art of Eating Source: The Art of Eating
“I'm not a vegetarian. Now, don't get me wrong - I like animals. And I don't think it's just fine to industrialize their production and to churn them out like they were wrenches. But there's no way to treat animals well when you're killing 10 billion of them a year. Kindness might just be a bit of a red herring. Let's get the numbers of animals we're killing for eating down, and then we'll worry about being nice to the ones that are left.” ThinkingWayYearsWellsMightLeftBitsAnimalNumbersKindnessWorryNiceFineEatingRedTreatsDown AndKillingProductionsBillionsVegetarianBeing NiceWrenchesHerringRed Herrings Author:Mark Bittman
“So my doctor told me to watch what I'm eating - to read food labels. I'm in the store reading the Fig Newtons label: I've always liked Fig Newtons. I'm reading the label to make sure everything's fine: fat content. I looked at the serving size; two cookies. Who eats two cookies? I eat Fig Newtons by the sleeve: two sleeves is a serving size. I open them both and eat them like a tree chipper; Fig Newton shavings coming off the side.” TwoReadingSidesWatchesTreeFineEatingDoctorsSizeStoresFatsLabelsServingCookiesNewtonSleevesFigsShaving Author:Brian Regan
“All events are linked together in the best of possible worlds; after all, if you had not been driven from a fine castle by being kicked in the backside for love of Miss Cunegonde, if you hadn't been sent before the Inquisition, if you hadn't traveled across America on foot, if you hadn't given a good sword thrust to the baron, if you hadn't lost all your sheep from the good land of Eldorado, you wouldn't be sitting here eating candied citron and pistachios. - That is very well put, said Candide, but we must cultivate our garden.” IfsWorldWellsSaidTogetherAmericaLostGivenFeetLandMissingEventsFineEatingSittingGardenDrivenSheepTraveledLinkedCastlesThrustInquisitionBacksidesCandidePistachios Author:Voltaire
“WHEN AUGUSTUS CAME OUT on the porch the blue pigs were eating a rattlesnake—not a very big one. It had probably just been crawling around looking for shade when it ran into the pigs.
