"Hunger makes you restless. You dream about food - not just any food,  but perfect food, the best food, magical meals, famous and  awe-inspiring, the one piece of meat, the exact taste of buttery corn,  tomatoes so ripe they split and sweeten the air, beans so crisp they  snap between the teeth, gravy like mother’s milk singing to your  bloodstream." - Dorothy Allison, Bastard Out of Carolina
