"Public and private food in America has become eatable, here and there extremely good. Only the fried potatoes go unchanged, as deadly as before."

Luigi Barzini, 'O America' (1977)

"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of �Fannie Farmer� or �The Joy of Cooking�."

John Thorne, American food writer
