I believe in the magic of preparation. You can make just about any foods taste wonderful by adding herbs and spices. Experiment with garlic, cilantro, basil and other fresh herbs on vegetables to make them taste great.
I have my mother who is an Irish-Italian, and my father who is African, so I have the taste buds of an Italian and the spice of an African.
When I was younger, my dad would cook, and I would never really have it, unless it was something like spaghetti. I would only like what my mom made - macaroni and cheese or something like that. But after I reached a certain age, I think it was 11, I realized I liked his cooking.
I like spaghetti bolognese, I like baked beans on toast. I hate French food. I hate fancy food.
I came to all the realizations about sustainability and biodiversity because I fell in love with the way food tastes. That was it. And because I was looking for that taste I feel at the doorsteps of the organic, local, sustainable farmers, dairy people and fisherman.
You're never going to persuade a meat-eater to become a vegetarian on taste grounds. They're completely different. One is a cleaner, fresher taste: it hasn't got that bass-note beefiness.
I'm not into pancake things. I'm into eggs. Lots of eggs.
I prefer pub food to posh food.
My idea of a good place to shop is Costco - it has these heavily marbled fillet steaks. The idea of eating some wheat thing and washing it down with carrot juice has never appealed to me.
I don't enjoy cooking when I'm high. And I don't want to be eating garbage because then I'll feel gross.
I've always liked Mexican food.
Cuisine is only about making foods taste the way they are supposed to taste.
I love Doritos - the nacho flavor. The Cool Ranch is good; it's a good second.
When I get down to Louisiana, I get to have a taste of some of that great food.
I like a pickled cucumber. A regular cucumber I'm not so interested in.
I say everything's about company. A gourmet meal with an asshole is a horrible meal. A hot dog with an interesting person is an amazing meal.
I do have very high customer service standards - I'd send back sushi because it's too fishy.
I never met a cold cut I didn't like.
Well, I wasn't a big Chick-fil-A fan, I guess, I never really knew about them because I'm from Philly and they don't have them there.
I typically like Sicilian pizza.
I love to have Heinz Salad Cream on all my food!
The parrot holds its food for prim consumption as daintily as any debutante, [with] a predilection for pot roast, hashed-brown potatoes, duck skin, butter, hoisin sauce, sesame seed oil, bananas and human thumb.
College students want good eats. They want it to not be super-expensive, but you've got to be eclectic, you've got to have style, and you've got to make real food.
I don't like pasta.
I'm not a big sweet guy, I have more of a savory palate.
