More quotations tagged with “food” Tomatoes and oregano make it Italian; wine and tarragon make it French. Sour cream makes it Russian; lemon and cinnamon make it Greek. Soy sauce makes it Chinese; garlic makes it good. —Calvin Trillin More about this quote Tags: food Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email Fat people, it is commonly held, should be punished because they offend our aesthetic sensibilities. They take up too much space on subways, buses, airplanes, and elevators. They consume more than they contribute to society. They become ill and need to be taken care of, or they die early and their families are left unsupported. The only way fat people can gain some acceptance and forgiveness for their crime of overeating is to at least try, or look like they are trying, to lose weight. They must never eat an ice cream cone in public, never be seen eating a normal sized portion of non-diet food! —Calvin Trillin More about this quote Tags: food Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email Fat is a barrier, a bellicose statement to others that, to some, justifies hostility in kind. The world says to the fat person, "Your fatness is an affront to me, so we have the right to treat you as offensively as you appear." Fat is not merely viewed as another type of tissue, but as a diagnostic sign, a personal statement, and a measure of personality. Too little fat and we see you as being antisocial, fearful and sexless. Too much fat and we see you as slothful, stupid, and sexually hung up. —Anthelme Brillat-Savarin More about this quote Tags: food Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email Eating is always a decision, nobody forces your hand to pick up food and put it into your mouth. —Alice May Brock More about this quote Tags: food Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email We are indeed much more than what we eat, but what we eat can nevertheless help us to be much more than what we are. —Adelle Davis More about this quote Tags: food Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
