Food Quotes:
"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."
Pearl Buck (1892-1973) American Nobel Prize winning author.
Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving.
Rosalind Russell
To the old saying that man built the house but woman made of it a "home" might be added the modern supplement that woman accepted cooking as a chore but man has made of it a recreation.
Emily Post
Vengeance is a dish that can be eaten colld.
