![“[A]ll gastronomic pleasure [is] a co-opted form of sexual desire. We interrupt the organic process of a plant or animal in order to eat it and we exhaust our own voluptuousness, our own perverted sexual desire, in the pleasure of eating.” quote by Luis Fernando Veríssimo](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/139/luis-fernando-verissimo-44133_desire_a-ll-gastronomic-pleasure-is-a-co-opted_267212.jpg)
