I remembered, who knows why, these two words, which have already gone out of fashion, even though they were indicators of real good hospitality.

Where is the best dirt in the area? Go there because the orja soup is divine. This is a delicacy! And they have already directed the person to where the evaporation of the broth, the bone with the marrow, the boiled beef with horseradish and mustard, the stew, the roasts were presented to the guest, deliciously, without any particular ceremony. Where are those ruddy gentlemen in tight vests, who, anecdotally, were able to "pinch" through 10-12 courses?

All this has been lost in the mists of the past, because today the world belongs to fasting artists. Everyone on TV cooks very scientifically, making sure that the "texture of the meat" is right, they add color to the bite with vegetables and exotic fruit bites, with some sauce streaks, saying that this way the serving is colorful. The era favors vegetarians, the wellness menus favor "foodies". This is the trend, but to be honest, I don't envy them, I feel sorry for them. The holidays were here, the traditional delicacies were on the tables, they nibbled in and out, but they had no idea about the taste-orgy.

I offer a few aphorisms to their attention:

It seems that the first law of the nutritional regime is: If it tastes bad.
/Asimov/

A diet is when you watch what you eat instead of eating what you watch.
/Gingold/

Fat people have a shorter life span.
But their meals are longer. /S. Lec/

I've been on a diet for two weeks, and the only thing I could lose was fourteen days.

If you decide to give up smoking, drinking and sex, your life will not be longer, it will only seem so to you.
