| | Sure, that's why I like to eat out a lot. Or else at home, I will have peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or cereal. It's quick, easy, fast, and cool. A lot of cooks I know don't want to cook when they get home. |

| | Absolutely~That's one of the trade secrets.
After cooking all day I do not want to eat anything I make. I have Thai, Chinese, Veitnamese etc sauces, spices, equipment but would much rather go out....it's not that their's is better it's just I'm not making it. |

| | Man, you ain't kiddin'. When people find out I can eat anything I want, tenderloin, shrimp,ect.. and that sometimes I just come home and have cereal they look at me as if I'm crazy, but hey sometimes I just want something simple, light, and coooooooool. |

| | | Well it is always the painter's house that needs painting and the mechanic's car that doesn't run well.
I like egg salad sandwiches from the corner store and a bag of chips. |

| | i absolutely adore stuff that i wouldnt even bother cooking because i dont know the technique or the convenience product saves so much time.
I cannot get enough of chinese fried or soup noodles, real french patisserie (made with real butter not pastrex or margarine), or just basic tasty food well executed.
in a nutshell, as long as someone with a fairly good idea of what their doing cooks for me rather than myself. |

| | absolutely..I cater and when I'm getting ready for a big job it feels as if I hadn't eaten for days.( I make up for it on days off  After the job, when everyones sits down to get a bite, I'm right into the dishwashing. Can't even look at food.And when I owned a deli, I very seldom had any deli meats in the frig. When it was time to leave, bringing food home was the last thing on my mind. |

| | When I just got started in the buisness, I ate in site. Now usually I have to force myself to eat something, I eat because I know i have to. Funny thing is I still love food but I just can't eat anymore.......I always say though ..... the best food for me to eat is something, anything that someone else cooked. |
