Anyone who thinks they're too grown up or too sophisticated to eat caramel corn, is not invited to my house for dinner

Pull up a chair. Take a taste. Come join us. Life is so endlessly delicious.

If we make it national policy that we will support small farmers the way we support agribusiness, we'll suddenly see it change in terms of the cost of organic food.

What does happen in 'Gourmet,' we had eight test kitchens, and at any given time, there were, like, ten or twelve test cooks. And whenever anybody finished something, they would yell, 'Taste!' and everyone would go running towards it, and then taste, and then brutally deconstruct the dish.

You can be a decent critic if you know about food, but to be a really good one, you need to know about life.

Let's face it: my life tends to revolve around food, and I love feeding people.
