Amanda believes, “any can cook a hamburger, but leave the vegetables to the professionals”. The salad days are over! This episode was sponsored by Hearst Ranch. “When I was 15, I became a vegetarian to rebel against my family.” “I wanted to find some taste sensation [with foie gras] that vegans and vegetarians could experience. “If you don’t do something great with a carrot, then there’s no point!” –Amanda Cohen on The Food Seen
