Chemically speaking, chocolate really is the world's perfect food. |

“Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are bought and sold by those who have the money to buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it should be available.” |

We are all dietetic sinners; only a small percent of what we eat nourishes us; the balance goes to waste and loss of energy. |

When women are depressed, they eat or go shopping. Man invade another country. It's a whole different way of thinking. |

"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’." |
| John Thorne, American food writer |
Although brie is not a fresh cheese, it, too, has a wonderful
affinity for any number of herbs. A large wheel topped with a
variety of herbs and served with bread or crackers is a buffet in
itself.
DIRECTIONS: =========== Cut off the top rind of the brie. Lightly
mark the top of the cheese into four pie-shaped wedges with a knife,
then divide each wedge into three more wedges, again marking lightly.
Sprinkle half the walnuts onto one of the wedge-shaped areas and
press them gently into the surface. Repeat the process with half of
each of the remaining ingredients, proceeding in order around the
wheel. Allow the brie to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes
before serving. The wheel can be loosely wrapped and refrigerated for
as long as four hours.
