RULES OF EATING -- THE BRONX DIETER'S CREED

(1)  Never eat on an empty stomach.
(2)  Never leave the table hungry.
(3)  When traveling, never leave a country hungry.
(4)  Enjoy your food.
(5)  Enjoy your companion's food.
(6)  Really taste your food.  It may take several
portions to
     accomplish this, especially if subtly seasoned.
(7)  Really feel your food.  Texture is important.
Compare,
     for example, the texture of a turnip to that of a
     brownie.  Which feels better against your cheeks?
(8)  Never eat between snacks, unless it's a meal.
(9)  Don't feel you must finish everything on your
plate.  You
     can always eat it later.
(10) Avoid any wine with a childproof cap.
(11) Avoid blue food.
