About this Talk
If you’re going to pick a dance partner, you want to know something about him. The way most Americans pick their dinner dance partners, it’s more like a one night stand than a relationship. People used to think a lot about food, but today it’s nearly an afterthought. We don’t eat at a family table. More than half of Americans don’t know what they’re eating for dinner at 4 in the afternoon. Food is simply a pitstop between the more important things in life. That’s not the way to cultivate a dinner dance partner.
