I've cooked just about everything really.
Jamie Oliver

I never get tired of talking about food. I do getting tired of fighting governments when they are so clearly not putting the best interest of the children forward.

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.

I hear loads of cynics saying that I'll never be able to change anything. They say that junk food marketing and the ready availability of fast food is just too powerful. But I'd say in response, screw you. I know that most people, if they're really honest, are fed up with the same old rubbish

From quite an early age I realised the effect that good food can have on others.

I could cook from quite an early age - purely because I liked it.

Fight the staggering rise of type-2 diabetes by simply learning to cook healthy fresh food - it's fun, and it could save your life!
Jamie Oliver
Image
I'm probably a bit romantic about it, but I think we humans miss having contact with fire. We need it.

The future is about a plant-based diet.

I love roasting because you can give it love, get it in the oven and go and play with the kids or whatever you've got to do, and then hours later you've got a lovely dinner.

I think authenticity is important whichever homeland you're from but one of the lovely things about British cooking is that we adopt great food and dishes from all of the lovely people who come from overseas to live in our country. We're a magpie nation - we take the best bits of other cuisines and embrace them as our own.

The whole idea is to earn the flavor. No one gives it to you.
Jamie Oliver
Image
The best food I've ever eaten in my life has come from the poorest communities.

Real food doesn't have ingredients, real food is ingredients.

Young people can be disruptive and screw up classes. But even if they are being a pain in the arse it's a cry for help - they don't feel like they are being listened to.
