Really connect to food and know what you're eating.

As a chef, if I can taste something, I can basically figure out what's in it.

I like to know exactly what's being put into my food.

Food tells you everything about the way people live and who they are.

I'm really into nutrition from the inside out.

I want to know what my food has been eating.

I learned to cook because I want to know about the food and the ingredients going into my family's bodies.

I think you can tell the food is close to my heart, too, because I'm doing what I do best.

I cook a lot, so that really helps: You know how much salt and sugar and all of that kind of stuff you are putting in your body.

My nutritional knowledge is good enough to figure out what's good, what's bad, and where my leeway is.
