Food for thought

So, as you may have noticed many of my thoughts/blogs/ideas revolve around food. I live for food and it lives for me.  My friends realize the minor obsession I have with creating it, thinking about it every 20 seconds, and devouring it.

When I first started this blog, people would ask me what the theme was.
"Hmm, FOOD," was my first thought...
But to be honest, I thought that there were enough food & cooking blogs already out there. My blog wasn't going to have a theme...it didn't need one. Still to this day, it's subjects are as random as the jar of jelly beans on my counter.
It's more eclectic this way.

Getting to the point, I've created another blog. It's all about what really matters..

Hunger Gene Van Buren

People often tell me to slow down. Whether it's driving, walking, or eating..generally I move fast.

I'm currently sitting at a local coffee shop scrunched uncomfortably between two tables. The men sitting at these tables BOTH have bagels & cream cheese sitting in front of them while reading the paper. I do not understand how people can leave food on their plates for long (or even short) periods of time. If I had a bagel at my table, I would eat its entirety within 3 minutes flat. I'm not exaggerating here. I eat fast. Is something wrong with me? Do I just have the impulsive hunger gene embedded in me? There is absolutely nothing that could stop me from wolfing down my food faster than humanely possible. I'm just getting hungry watching that food sit untouched. Ohhh, it's even within arm's reach.

Food really is an interesting topic. It's pretty crazy that we has humans have to buy our food. It is kept under lock and key unless we get jobs, earn money, then give that money back to the system so we can sustain our bodies. It doesn't seem natural. Everybody should grow their own gardens.
