I saw this trailer on my Apple Mac recently and really hope that it will make it to the cinemas here in England. I love food, good food - and I have the womanly curves to prove it. For a long time during my fitness and body building craze, "fast food" was like a dirty word to me. But if I were to make those foods at home, from scratch, I think I would enjoy eating a few french fries and a burger. Maybe a baked potato instead as I was never too keen on french fries. Fries (just my opinion) have the consistency of chewing a candle - waxy and greasy. Oh - and let's not forget a nice German beer to have along with that burger and fries !! You know me and my beer obsession.
I was very blessed during my childhood to have a Mum who had time to make everything from scratch. My family owned and operated restaurant(s) for close to thirty years, offering fresh, homemade soups, breads, stews, beef roasts, coleslaw and salads, potato and a variety of ethnic foods - Norwegian, German, Polish and Russian recipes that were handed down for generations. These were the people that migrated and settled on the plains of North Dakota. And because I grew up around food-gurus and pastry artisans - I make an awesome apple pie ! Now-a-days, many children are not as fortunate to have their Mum stay home and nurture them with wholesome, homemade meals. The old fashioned Mum role has had to take a back seat to financial demands for the survival of the family. So pizza, has become the staple meal on many tables.
I hope you find this trailer interesting - it really made me pause and think a bit more more about what it is, that we actually shove into our gobs everyday. Food is a blessing.
