Man Eating Minimalist Meal

"I was going to call it 'Empty Plinth', but then I settled on 'Winter's Smile'...I wanted to capture the 'nothingness' of an 'absence of anything'..."

"My compliments to the can opener."

Restaurant: Come & Get It! Bland Cuisine - 'Just plain food, good, but nothing fancy.'

"And the kitchen is ideal for people who like to eat out."

"I'm going across the street for a sandwich and coffee. Can I get you something?"

"No wonder he's so skinny - he eats like a bird."

"Our food supervisor used to be a military cook."

"Never mind the cost of living crisis, dear, you still need your 5-a-day."

"Do you have this in a flat brown sandal?"

'They use paper plates.'

'You don't need to worry Jean, he's a very simple cook.'

"If it says to add water, and I'm the one who adds it, I'm cooking."

'What do you mean, you're not hungry? - Your mother spent two minutes cooking that in the microwave just for you!'

"Let me see if I have it correctly, sir. To hell with the appetizer. A chopped sirloin that damn well better be rare. No goddam relish tray. Who cares which salad dressing, since they all taste like sludge?"

"Says here tiny houses are the hot new trend. Didn't I always tell you we're ahead of our time, Doris?"

Glad we moved out of the City

"I think investors have been a bit concerned about these tiny 'microflats' we're converting."

'I get this awful dream where I'm walking down the street - Completely clothed!'

'The Nihilist Deli'

"Hello there, Mulligan's pillows for better posture, let me leave you a brochure."

'My mother was always dieting...To this day I think of a home-cooked meal as grapefruit and black coffee.'

"I miss the old days when my mom would pick them fresh."

"You've got to admit their outright elimination of the hamburger was a stroke of sheer financial genius!"

Pre-digested convenience foods.

"Don't forget your five a day."

'Brilliant - cold porridge and stale bread again!'

'We no longer serve trans-fats. Would you like some lettuce broth?'

Understanding the prune.

'I'm on a diet -- just make it a TWO-bean salad.'

'Just coffee.'

"Well, at least you won't need to take your potato vitamins tonight."
