Nature, the ultimate pragmatist, doggedly searches for something that works. But as the cockroach demonstrates, what works best in nature does not always appeal to us Picture Quote #1

Food is a central activity of mankind and one of the single most significant trademarks of a culture Picture Quote #1

A gourmet knows that the best part is not always the expensive part, and he will find that part, and then he will share it. A gourmet should want to share Picture Quote #1

Judging foods without regard to price is a rich mans game, and yet poor people can be gourmets able to discern a good potato from a bad one Picture Quote #1

Chloride is essential for digestion and in respiration. Without sodium, which the body cannot manufacture, the body would be unable to transport nutrients or oxygen, transmit nerve impulses, or move muscles, including the heart Picture Quote #1
