As a freelance writer, I'd be asked to become an expert for various magazines on any subject, whether food or wine or history or the life span of veterinarians. I was completely unschooled in any of these things. John Hodgman
Music is my No. 1 passion. If you made me choose between music and food, it's definitely music. Trisha Yearwood
One can hardly be Indian and not know that almost every accent, which hand you eat your food with, has some deeper symbolic truth, reality. Anish Kapoor
Everyone would talk about their diets and working out and what it made me do was go to craft services where all the food for the cast and crew was and I would eat. Kristin Davis
In corn, I think I've found the key to the American food chain. If you look at a fast-food meal, a McDonald's meal, virtually all the carbon in it - and what we eat is mostly carbon - comes from corn. Michael Pollan
At home I serve the kind of food I know the story behind. Michael Pollan
Corn is an efficient way to get energy calories off the land and soybeans are an efficient way of getting protein off the land, so we've designed a food system that produces a lot of cheap corn and soybeans resulting in a lot of cheap fast food. Michael Pollan

A few years ago, kids from poor areas in France were asked to draw items of food. For a chicken, they drew a drumstick. For a fish, they drew a fish stick. Those are extremes, but there is a lot that needs to be done to help children discover good food. Joel Robuchon
Talking about food is like talking about your dreams. Everyone has something to say. We all have to eat, it's just what we eat which differs. Some people eat for fuel and I feel bad for them. Gael Garcia Bernal
Mexican food is far more varied than people think. It changes like dialects. I was brought up in Jalisco by the sea on a basic diet - tomatoes, chillis, peppers of every size and rice, which is a Mexican staple. The Pacific coast has a huge array of seafood. Gael Garcia Bernal
I think the water dictates how food will taste in a country. In England the apples taste unlike apples grown in any other place. England is an island, there's a lot of salt in the air and in the water. I think that has something to do with it. Gael Garcia Bernal
Latin food suffers like Chinese. You can do marginal Chinese and be successful. You can do crappy Mexican and be packed. Aaron Sanchez
Murals in restaurants are on a par with the food in museums. Peter De Vries
The murals in restaurants are on par with the food in museums. Peter De Vries
I get way too much happiness from good food. Elizabeth Olsen
Money spent on carbon cuts is money we can't use for effective investments in food aid, micronutrients, HIV/AIDS prevention, health and education infrastructure, and clean water and sanitation. Bjorn Lomborg
