Television series are a source of great wisdom: fans of American tv shows already know this truth. It may not surprise you to know that even in matters of food some TV series dish out much advice.
Culinary selfishness, vindictiveness against vegetarian food, a love for dessert and a passion for alcohol: we have delicious tv quotes for all of these topics.
FRIENDS
Out of all the characters of Friends the most morbidly attached to food is undoubtedly the penniless Joey, an ItalianAmerican actor who has provided us with more than one maxim on the food.
