My Foodie Valentine: The True Romance Between Love and Food


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Food and love; love and food – definitely two of our favourite subjects in life, these basic human needs are also innately linked. Today we celebrate love and it’s no coincidence that one of the most popular gifts are chocolates, and the most popular activity is spending a romantic dinner with your loved one: There is a profound connection between food and intimacy.

The proverb is true… a man’s heart is through his stomach. Either it is eating well because you’re in love, losing your appetite on a heartbreak, desiring for what is forbidden, food and love are bound together as they produce the same reward hormones like dopamine and norepinephrine, which make us feel good.

It’s a fact: when you are a couple, your lifestyle revolves a bit more around food. Online food ordering marketplace foodpanda (www.foodpanda.ph) found the best, foodiest love quotes and created 7 cards to share with that special person in your life.




1. "My weaknesses have always been food and men—in that order." —Dolly Parton, American singer-songwriter, actress, author

2. "I have made a lot of mistakes falling in love, and regretted most of them, but never the potatoes that went with them.” ―Nora Ephron, American journalist, playwright, novelist, director

3. "People who love to eat are always the best people." —Julia Child, TV chef and author


4. "Great food is like great sex. The more you have the more you want." —Gael Greene, American restaurant critic, author and novelist

5. "A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand." —Barbara Johnson, American literary critic

6. "My doctor told me I had to stop throwing intimate dinners for four unless there are three other people." —Orson Welles, American actor, director, writer and producer

  1. I believe, that food is the way to a person's heart! Hahaha. It's on a different style but it's very the same with "a way to a man's heart is through his stomach". Very glad that someone has said it! Because I love eating and it is my best comfort buddy! It's a yay. It's great that someone has written this article especially this season where love is in the air, so this article is on a right timing. Good job!
