Vegetables are interesting but lack a sense of purpose when unaccompanied by a good cut of meat. ↗

The West is color. Its colors are animal rather than vegetable, the colors of earth and sunlight and ripeness. ↗

One good thing about California is we have quite a broad-based economy. We provide more fruits and vegetables and produce to the United States than any other state. So we have actually the single largest agricultural sector in the country. ↗

I live alone, with cats, books, pictures, fresh vegetables to cook, the garden, the hens to feed. ↗

One time I took my knife and sliced off the end of a hog’s nose, just like a piece of salami. The hog went crazy for a few seconds. Then it sat there looking kind of stupid. So I took a handful of salt and rubbed it on the wound. Now that hog really went nuts. It was my way of taking out frustration. Another time, there was a live hog in the pit. It hadn’t done anything wrong, wasn’t even running around. It was just alive. I took a three-foot chunk of pipe and I literally beat that hog to death. It was like I started hitting the hog and I couldn’t stop. And when I finally did stop, I’d expended all this energy and frustration, and I’m thinking what in God’s sweet name did I do. ↗

Ground beef can hardly be classified as meat. A pureed animal is an aesthetic ideal. ↗

I grew up a vegetarian. Then, because I grew up in the states, I started slowly eating meat. First it was bologna sandwiches, or pepperoni on pizza. ↗

I love seafood. I'm not a vegetarian but I'm probably a pescetarian. ↗
