<\/p>\nWhen I first heard the word \u2018foodie\u2019 I thought it was a euphemism for fat, like \u2018big-boned\u2019 or \u2018husky\u2019.\u00a0 \u201cHe\u2019s a nice boy, he\u2019s just a foodie\u201d<\/p>\n
Now I understand that being a foodie is a good thing.<\/p>\n
For me, though, it\u2019s not just about enjoying food (which I do) but it\u2019s also about the experiences surrounding food.\u00a0 It seems that many of my most cherished memories or favorite stories involve food in one way, shape or form.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve also come to realize that I\u2019m not alone in this.\u00a0 Many of my friends and family have a similar outlook on food and the important part it plays in our lives.\u00a0 Because of this shared love of food and eating I\u2019ve asked others to join me in telling their food-related stories.<\/p>\n
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do and I hope they entice you to share your own Foodie Tale.<\/p>\n
