Welcome, welcome to the best five minute wine podcast with Forrest Kelly.
00:19
Where's all this energy coming from, Chuck?
00:22
Well my friend, I'm well caffeinated, and yeah, I'm well caffeinated, but it is really
00:30
Yeah, I can feel it.
00:31
It's really my passion to share my joy for food and beverage.
00:36
My joy is sharing the medical meal aspects with people who need that assistance, the
00:43
longevity aspects of cuisine.
00:46
It's true what they say here in the South, you are what you eat, and you are what you
00:51
What we take into our bodies has a direct effect on our overall health and wellness,
00:56
and that includes beverage pairings in the form of wine.
01:00
That's why I try to stay away from Froot Loops and turkey, if you are what you eat.
01:06
I mean, it's like we have a lot of fun with different aspects like that as well.
01:11
When people are looking for that type of flavor, especially this time of the year where we
01:14
have the berries starting to come out, we really surprise them with different aspects
01:20
that we have access to.
01:22
North Carolina, where I am, is a very diverse state when it comes to cuisine.
01:26
When it comes to what grows, and what's in season, and what's in the fields, and what's
01:30
available at the farmer's markets, we also have diversity when it comes to that.
01:34
Spring, summer, winter, or fall, there's always something in the farmer's market that we can
01:37
play with that plays with the emotions of the Froot Loop eaters, so to speak.
01:44
Okay, your last meal.
01:46
It's your last meal on earth, and you got your wine, and no judgment.
01:51
It doesn't have to be healthy per se.
01:53
What are you going for?
01:55
I'm going to pull a margarita pizza out of a pizza oven, and I'm going to slice it up
02:01
for my family members and my favorite people on this earth.
02:05
As we watch that comet come in, we're going to slice down on that pizza, and we're going
02:09
to chomp down on probably a really nice ... I know I've been talking about North Carolina
02:14
varietals, but I'm going to open up my nicest bottle of French wine that I have in my collection.
02:19
We're going to pop it up and pass around glasses and just, here's to humanity.
02:25
This is our last meal together.
02:26
This is the last meal we'll ever have, so let's enjoy it as the world comes to an end,
02:33
We've got a bunch of websites, and so I'll give you 30 seconds to hit the websites and
02:43
your books and all of the things that you're all about, so I'll shut up and let her rip.
02:49
The Chef's Recovery is on Amazon, so you can check out the book that I wrote in 2014.
02:53
It's called The Chef's Recovery.
02:54
That's my cancer journey.
