food is art and magic

src: happyolks

"...food is capable of feeding far more than a rumbling stomach. food is life; our well-being depends on it. food is art and magic; it evokes emotion and colors memory, and in skilled hands, meals become greater than the sum of their ingredients. food is self-evident; plucked right from the ground or vine or sea, its power to delight is immediate. food is discovery; finding an untried spice or cuisine is for me like uncovering a new element. food is evolution; how we interpret it remains ever fluid. food is humanitarian; sharing it bridges cultures, making friends of strangers pleasantly surprised to learn how much common ground they ultimately share." - anthony beal
