I personally abhor the term foodie, but, alas, gourmand and epicure seemed a bit too highfalutin for an internet listicle on how to acquire culinary knowledge. Thus I present to you Zero to Foodie in 10 Steps. While you, the edumacated Feedbag reader, are probably well aware of many of the suggestions given (duh, Greenmarket), there still might be a few surprises in store for you. Did you know that there is a working, sustainable farm in Queens? Or that David Bouley has a test kitchen that occasionally hosts demonstration classes? Yes, no matter whether your favorite chef is Keller or Boyardee, this guide will help you on your noble quest to become a, ahem, foodie.
