I love food, but I don’t discriminate. I love the finest foie gras mousse as much as I love a basket of fries and wings at the local pub. Those who turn up their noses to toonie tuesdays at KFC and scoff when you don’t know the meaning of sous-vide are called 'Food Snobs.'
If you ever invite food snobs over for dinner, call their bluff with a set of snooty place cards. A pack of 8 unique cards will cost you $14. Even if you don’t know any food snobs, these exquisite cards might actually be of interest as they provide little bits of insight into culinary delicacies such as fennel pollen, sand dab, Berkshire pork and humboldt fog.
