RUTH REICHL
Mary Frances Fisher] has the extraordinary ability to make the ordinary seem rich and wonderful. Her dignity comes from her absolute insistence on appreciating life as it comes to her.

JULIA CHILD
How wonderful to have here in my hands the essence of M.F.K. Fisher, whose wit and fulsome opinions on food and those who produce it, comment upon it, and consume it are as apt today as they were several decades ago, when she composed them. Why did she choose food and hunger she was asked, and she replied, 'When I write about hunger, I am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth, and the love of it . . . and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied.' This is the stuff we need to hear, and to hear again and again.

ALCIE WATERS
This comprehensive volume should be required reading for every cook. It defines in a sensual and beautiful way the vital relationship between food and culture.

Amazing value, looks great - quite durable
Color: Gold
I recently hosted a large dinner party and decided to go with the 300 Pack Premium Heavy Duty Gold Plastic Silverware. Let me tell you, it was a great choice! First off, the set comes with 100 forks, spoons, and knives, which was perfect for my guest list of 100. I love that it’s all in one package, so I didn’t have to stress about running out of cutlery during the event. The heavy-duty plastic feels surprisingly sturdy, and I didn’t have a single fork bend or break, even with the heartier dishes I served. The gold metallic finish added such an elegant touch to the table setting. My guests complimented how fancy it looked for disposable cutlery! It really elevated the overall vibe of the dinner without the hassle of using real silverware or worrying about cleanup. After the meals, all I had to do was toss everything into the trash, which saved me a ton of time and effort. Another thing I appreciated was the organized storage box. It kept everything neat and clean until I was ready to use it, which is a bonus if you're planning an event. All in all, I highly recommend this set for anyone hosting gatherings. It combines functionality with a stylish appearance, making cleanup a breeze while still impressing your guests.

Slight odor, more flexible than I expected
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
These looked like they were going to be heavy duty, but they were more flexible than I expected (see video clip). They probably still will work well, but if you’re poking your fork into something stiff, expect that the fork might bend some. There was a slight chemical odor when I opened the package, and I’m not a fan of that. As someone with MCS, I have to avoid exposure to fragrances and other harmful chemicals, and it makes me wonder what these are coated with. The gold might be cute for the aesthetic you’re going for with a particular gathering or party, but I find it unnecessary. I would rather go with the real heavy duty ones that are clear plastic from a club warehouse rather than these gold ones. I feel that these are overpriced for the quality, but not a bad price if all you’re going for is the gold aesthetic.

Nice, high end look, disposable
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
I hate to spend a lot of money on something that's just going to be thrown away, so typically buy dollar store disposable silverware for parties and gatherings. But every once in a while, you want something more upscale or high end looking. Enter this pricy but pretty plastic silverware. It is perfect for a wedding, anniversary, shower or other event where you want a nicer look instead of basic. It is sturdy. You won't have to worry about it breaking as someone spears a bite of chicken. It looks great! There's only so much you can do with plastic ware but for what it is, it looks really nice.
