Sad but true
Maybe this doesn't mean nothing, but...
There's a big difference between this cooking NG and the main italian cooking NG: here you can post recipes who list commercial products in the ingredients, while on the italian NG you can't even talk about frozen spinach, unless you want to be ridiculed by some food-snob. Yeah, damn food-snobs. This is sad, really sad. Why? I don't know... Maybe us italians are more concerned about food, but why all this snobbery? LOL, I hoper it's just a moment -- Vilco Think pink, drink rose' |

[snip] Among some foodies in the United States it's a clich=E9 to characterize Italian cooking as being devoted to the highest quality, freshest ingredients. Maybe there's some truth to it. I would hesitate to say what characterizes rfc. -aem |

What is the "main Italian cooking NG" BTW? Also what is the difference
between being concerned about quality and snobbery. In my opinion, food snobs are trying to be trendy, ostentatious, and are highly suceptible to suggestion by food and wine journalist. In my experience, Italians show a higher concern and appreciation of food than a large percentage of Americans and I can relate to that. I think it's really a matter of priorities and we all have our own. Oh boy! Talking about food opens so many interesting questions about human behavior... Good Eats... D.M. |

I think it's more those who stick their nose up in the air when someone says they make or prepare something differently than the snob does. It's the "holier-than-thou" attitude. It's an ego thing.

I DON'T think that necessarily makes them snobs. Or at least I hope not. Fact is, a lot of people may care very much about food, but also have families, jobs and errands, and can't always put half a day's work into what they eat for dinner on any given weeknight. Things generally do taste better when they're fresh, it's true, and it's generally advisable to eat meat, fish and poultry when it IS fresh for the sake of one's health. But I'm sure not going to give a tired parent of either gender hell for using frozen spinach rather than fresh in a dish. They deserve credit for cooking dinner rather than just getting TV dinners out of the freezer. If they don't lavish all the care on it that they might for a special occasion, they're still making the effort to put homecooked food on the table. I'll happily eat any meal with genuine food lovers, even if we only eat scrambled eggs and toast. I don't have five minutes to spare for food snobs. I heard an interview with Ruth Reichl on Sunday, and I thought she summed up the difference between food lovers and food snobs rather well. For her, a genuine food lover can appreciate a really good grilled cheese sandwich or hot dog with the same pleasure as they'd eat a four-course meal that costs a thousand dollars per person. A food snob is more interested in a restaurant's status, and the fact that they're eating there than they are in really enjoying the food. It's kind of like the people who are so busy videotaping the Grand Canyon to prove they were there that they have no time to really LOOK and appreciate being there. Melissa |

A food lover enjoys good food no matter where it comes from. It can be cheap, simple, and plain, such as a homegrown tomato munched in the garden or a raw oyster slurped on the dock. It can also be outrageously expensive and hard to find like Chateau Margaux or fugu. I thin it one of the great fortunes of life that evolution has made something we must do to live - eating - also someting that can be a great pleasure. -- Peter Aitken Remove the crap from my email address before using. |
