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. – Alton Brown
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 isnt about food, its about entertainment. If, however, we can virally infect you with knowledge or interest, then all the better. – Alton Brown
