We often wish we had said something witty we read or hear. Pithy quotations always light up the dullest world. With this volume we hope to do just that.

The anthology began when we sought to add a little light humour and interest to the Gourmet Guides twitter page. The same applies to our collection of menu translation blunders, which will be appearing shortly.

YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN
Food quotes for
after dinner and other occasions

THE BOOK:
Wit: "what oft was thought, but ne'er so well express'd" - Alexander Pope
"I wish I had said that" - Oscar Wilde. "You will, Oscar; you will." - James Whistler

At one time in my career I was making frequent after-dinner speeches, and for audiences in the hotel and restaurant sector I sought to use pithy food quotations to garnish my words. It would have been so much easier to find them, had a source like this been available then! It is an invaluable reference.
We have avoided any quotes which cannot easily be tweeted. Some of them may require adaptation to suit specific tweets. Most of them are close enough to 140 characters.
Many food quotations are long-winded to say the least, and for that reason they do not appear here.
The entries are in alphabetical order of the names of those who said or wrote them, but for the ease of reading we have placed the name of the person making the quote after the words they have uttered.
If the reader is looking for a quote on a particular food or a specific speaker/writer, then the "search" tool can be used with ease.
