We have a collection of 13 Food quotes from Alton Brown

"I say grace. I'm a big believer in grace. I happen to believe in a God that made all the food and so I'm pretty grateful for that and I thank him for that. But I'm also thankful for the people that put the food on the table." (ID 5447)


"The worst food you'll ever eat will probably be prepared by a 'cook' who calls himself a 'chef.' Mark my words." (ID 5454)


"Everything in food is science. The only subjective part is when you eat it." (ID 5511)


"The kitchen's a laboratory, and everything that happens there has to do with science. It's biology, chemistry, physics. Yes, there's history. Yes, there's artistry. Yes, to all of that. But what happened there, what actually happens to the food is all science." (ID 5514)


"A lot of food shows need only to tempt. Some food shows only need to inspire, to empower. And there are a lot of shows that do that." (ID 5562)


"You don't want flame to hit your food. Flame is bad. Flame does nasty things to food. It makes soot and it makes deposits of various chemicals that are not too good for us. The last thing you really want to see licking at your food while it's on a grill is an actual flame." (ID 5661)


"I kept thinking, 'Somebody has to make a food show that is actually educational and entertaining at the same time... a show that got down to the 'why things happen.' Plus, I hated my job - I didn't think it was very worthwhile." (ID 5662)


"I spent a college semester in a small town in Italy - and that is where I truly tasted food for the first time." (ID 5663)


"You know most of the food that Americans hold so dear - things like hamburgers and hot dogs - were road food, but even before they were road food, they were peasant food." (ID 5664)


"I think a lot of food shows, especially when we started 'Good Eats' back in the late '90s, they were still really about food. 'Good Eats' isn't about food, it's about entertainment. If, however, we can virally infect you with knowledge or interest, then all the better." (ID 5665)


"I'm a filmmaker who decided to go to culinary school. All I picked up was the fact if I didn't understand what was going on with every single ingredient, I could be qualifying for, like, the lunch food job at my daughter's school." (ID 5667)


"I am a filmmaker. That is all I've ever been. You know, Martin Scorsese makes films about the mob. And I make movies about food." (ID 5668)


"Do not allow watching food to replace making food." (ID 5669)
