I Do Like Artfully Breaking Rules.

I Am A Filmmaker. That Is All I've Ever Been. You Know, Martin Scorsese Makes Films About The Mob. And I Make Movies About Food.

I Had Kicked Around The Idea For Good Eats When I Was Directing Commercials.

I'm An Absolute Connoisseur Of Cheeseburgers And Like To Think That I Can Detect Even Mere Percentages Of Shift In Fat Content In Ground Meat In A Burger And Can Actually Name The Temperature To Which It Was Actually Cooked To The Degree If I'm, You Know, Really On My Game.

My Advice: Write Down Everything You Eat. It's Amazing What That "self Honesty" Can Do For You. (do You Really Want To Have To Confess That Doughnut? I Thought Not.)

My Feeling Has Always Been That 'good Eats' Would Have Never Happened Had It Been Left To A Committee.
