“I think that there's some brainwashing going on with this idea that we don't have time to cook anymore. We have made cooking seem much more complicated than it is, and part of that comes from watching cooking shows on television-we've turned cooking into a spectator sport. ...My wife and I both work, and we can get a very nice dinner on the table in a half hour. It would not take any less time for us to drive to a fast-food outlet and order, sit down, and bus our table.” ThinkingMadeIdeasShowsSeemsOrderSportsHoursHalfNiceWifeTelevisionDown AndTablesCookingComplicatedDinnerMy WifeCooksBusSpectatorsOutletsVery NiceFast FoodHalf HoursBrainwashingCooking Shows Author:Michael Pollan
“I had no idea what effect something blockbustering would have. To me, it was just a job that I was trying to do the best I could. We had shot the first five shows before it went on the air. Then, it was this firecracker hit, and people were recognizing me, so it was just nuts. It was overwhelming, insane, wonderful and scary all at the same time. It's really peculiar that people see you on television and then think they have a personal relationship with you. So, they want to touch you, and grab you, and sit down and have lunch with you. It's strange, and you never get used to that.” PeopleThinkingWantTryingFirstsIdeasShowsJobsUsedFiveWonderfulAirEffectsTelevisionStrangeShotsDown AndScaryInsaneNo IdeaLunchOverwhelmingPeculiarNutsRecognizingDo The BestPersonal RelationshipsFirecracker Author:Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs
