The Top of the Crate

In our countries, we have created terms that discriminate, not just people, but also food!
Like " Choose from the top of the . fruit/vegetable Crate"... Assuming that the bottom or inside should always be thrown cause it would be bad !
It is a food culture that throws away food even when there is a slight bruise.
Food waste is indeed a problem created by our mindsets and cultural norms.

A Great Place To Be

"To stand at the edge of the sea, to sense the ebb and flow of the tides, to feel the breath of a mist moving over a great salt marsh, to watch the flight of shore birds that have swept up and down the surf lines of the continents for untold thousands of year, to see the running of the old eels and the young shad to the sea, is to have knowledge of things that are as nearly eternal as any earthly life can be.” Rachel Carson

Food for Quote

I had a cliche idea of  merely collecting some quotes that are "food" related  but actually hold wise words behind them.

"Men are like a fine wine.  They start out like grapes, and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you'd like to have dinner with."  ~Author Unknown .haahaha true ;) dont you think so???

"Give me a fruitful error any time, full of seeds, bursting with its own corrections.  You can keep your sterile truth for yourself."  ~Vilfredo Pareto  . This one i cant blindly agree to!!

"Happiness is a bowl of cherries and a book of poetry under a shade tree. " ~Astrid Alauda . Nice :):)

"Life is half delicious yogurt, half crap, and your job is to keep the plastic spoon in the yogurt." ~Scott Adams. Perhaps. I hope not :P

“When you shoot an arrow of truth, dip its point in honey ” ~Arab proverb. Good advise!
