Sometimes, in the deepest moments, there is only food

Food is something that will always bind us. Especially in environments where you have difficult relationships with people, you may not be getting along with someone, or you may have difficult relationships with your parents. Or deep stuff, like getting out of jail or coming off being an addict, or failing—failing at school, failing at your job, getting laid off—not feeling like you’re worth anything in life. What are you gonna do? Wait for someone to tell you something? Or maybe there are no words to even describe or understand what you’re going through and it’s just gonna sound like the person is just disrespecting what you're going through. So maybe there are times where you don’t need words. And you can share your empathy or your criticisms or your disgust or your anger or your love for a person through the food. You just shut the fuck up and you just eat.
