Very rarely does food enhance the conversation. If the food is really good, there'll be much less conversation because you'd be concentrating too much on the food.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Eating without conversation is only stoking.
What bothers me is that there is so much emphasis on food, rather than gathering and meeting - so that there is all this effort in creating the right food, whereas the food is only a small part of whether the encounter is successful or not.
The only think I like better than talking about Food is eating.
Many people see the chance to eat something for nothing, without the need to cook or wash up, as the great consolation of going out to dinner. But they forget quite how difficult it is to talk to a stranger and eat at the same time.
I used to hang out by the food table at parties because you don't have to talk to anybody. If you do then you can talk about the food.
Wit is the salt of conversation, not the food.
Talking to other people while you're cooking, it doesn't come naturally.
Almost every time we get together with family or friends, the conversation ends up being about food.
I could talk food all day. I love good food.
It's important for me who is at the table with me; the moment when everyone speaks to each other and everyone listens. If there's good food, it's much better.
