“I wouldn't say that processed food, ready meals and even takeaways are...” — Jamie Oliver Quote

“I wouldn't say that processed food, ready meals and even takeaways aren't relevant to modern life, it's just that over the past 40 years there are three generations of people who have come out of school and gone through their home life without ever being shown how to cook properly.”

“I'm better with my hands, and I always loved the slightly romantic idea of starting with bits of wood and being able to create something to sit on, to eat from, to store your clothes in.”

“We're in a situation now where weight and extreme weight and heart disease is the biggest killer in this country today.”

“My goal in 'Live to Cook' is to make great food more approachable for home cooks.”

“If we're eating industrially, if we're letting large corporations, fast food chains, cook our food, we're going to have a huge, industrialized, monoculture agriculture because big likes to buy from big. So I realized, wow, how we cook or whether we cook has a huge bearing on what kind of agriculture we're going to have.”

“Food should be fun.”
