• Can I cook like ... Andy Warhol? | Stephen Bush

  27-01-2018 14:00 via theguardian.com
  In which our columnist discovers that accomplished artistry need not always indicate good tasteAndy Warhol loved food, which isn’t to say that he loved good eating. He loved what he painted: Campbell’s soup, hamburgers, Coca-Cola and fast food of all types. (Also speed, but the Guardian refused to pay for that.)I start my dinner with a tin of Campbell’s cream of tomato soup, the only time anything resembling a vegetable crosses a plate in the whole meal. I have always been agno

  The TV naturalist is a chocolate fiend, but hasn’t had a soft drink for 15 yearsI have Asperger’s and I like routine, so I eat the same thing if I possibly can. Granola or muesli with soya milk – and that’s it. I gave up tea 10 years ago and haven’t drunk coffee since 1990. I was on the ceiling and didn’t like it. I just have water. Continue reading...

• 'I remember that meal and freeze with horror': Ruby Tandoh on the food that made her

  27-01-2018 09:00 via theguardian.com
  From pistachio gelato in New York to the world’s worst grilled tilapia in my Sheffield flat: these are the meals that made meThe meals that make us are never the ones we most want to remember. I didn’t find myself in a bowl of perfect pumpkin ravioli with butter-fried sage, or a pizza I embarked on a pilgrimage across the continent to find.
