It is in our nature to be such ungainly, consumptive beasts. To live and labour so we may eat and be eaten. To consume and be consumed in eternity. And to this end, we have built around ourselves the machinery of consumption. It becomes easy to forget, then, that there is true flavour yet, beneath it all. In the face of such despair, our one saving grace is the ability to make things. And as long as it comes from a place of honesty, fascination, and true flavour… there will always be room for more.
