THE MANIFESTO

Manifesto- published or verbal declaration of the intentions, motives, or views of a person or group.

Cooking is diverse. It uses all types of ingredients- including meat. I do not discriminate or promote one lifestyle choice over another.

Boycotting or abstaining from one type of ingredient cuts off the person from experiencing new things, flavors and dishes

Just as there are different genres of punk, jazz and blues (some better than others) there are different disciplines of cooking. Cooking and being a fan of food celebrates the diversity of people’s ethnic backgrounds and personal choices.

Cooking is DIY. It is improvisational. It does not believe that recipes are set in stone. Experimentation in food and life is a beautiful thing. DIY celebrates doing what you can with what you have.

Enjoying Food also includes “Road Food”  Being in a traveling band, a vagabond like myself or even being a regular person often means you are leaving the comfort of your surroundings to experience new music, see your favorite bands live, or play a show to a bunch of strangers. Food becomes an important part of the experience. I’ve never been in a band that gets along when they start skipping meals on the road.
