Food, glorious food! How we love it, cultivate it, and share it with the world.

Enter the world of the kitchen, where some of the greatest tasting, and best looking food can also inspire great works of art.

Food is a universal need since we all need sustenance to survive. In order to create, our body must be fueled by energy.

Andy Warhol enjoyed eating sandwiches made with a bar of chocolate between two slices of bread.
