Because I have nothing really to say, I'm going to put up a quote by Anthony Bourdain in a recent interview; a quote which solidifies why he's probably my favourite "celebrity" TV chef.
Alice Waters annoys the living shit out of me. Were all in the middle of a recession, like were all going to start buying expensive organic food and running to the green market. Theres something very Khmer Rouge about Alice Waters that has become unrealistic. I mean Im not crazy about our obsession with corn or ethanol and all that, but Im a little uncomfortable with legislating good eating habits. Im suspicious of orthodoxy, the kind of orthodoxy when it comes to what you put in your mouth. Im a little reluctant to admit that maybe Americans are too stupid to figure out that the food were eating is killing us. But I dont know if its time to send out special squads to close all the McDonalds. My libertarian side is at odds with my revulsion at what we as a country have done to ourselves physically with what weve chosen to eat and our fast food culture. Im really divided on that issue.
