They then burned all the nutmeg trees on the other islands to make sure no one else could profit from the trees. Anyone caught trying to smuggle nutmeg out of the Moluccas was put to death. The Dutch also dipped all their nutmegs in lime (a caustic substance) to stop the seed from sprouting and to prevent people from planting their own trees. Pigeons, however, defied these Dutch precautions. Birds could eat nutmeg fruits, fly to another island and leave the seeds behind in their droppings.","author":"Meredith Sayles Hughes","tags":["history","spices"],"id":121378,"author_id":"Meredith+Sayles+Hughes"},{"text":"The three most powerful seasonings are hunger, variety, and gratitude.","author":"Neel Burton","tags":["food","foodies","philosophy","psychology","spices"],"id":160253,"author_id":"Neel+Burton"},{"text":"The salt is to the food, what soul is to the body.","author":"Amit Kalantri","tags":["adage","advertisement","alcohol","alliterations","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri-writer","bite","bitter","blog","blogging","body","body-weight","book-writing","breakfast","buffet","calories","caring","catch-lines","catchphrases","characters","cheese","chef","cold-drink","cook","cooking","cooking-classes","cooking-skill","creative-writing","culinary","diet","dieting","dinner","doctor","drink","drinking","eat","eating-out","empty-stomach","essay","exotic","explore","fat","finger-licking","fitness","flavor","flavour","food","food-bite","food-channel","food","foodie","foodies","garnish","garnishing","glass-of-wine","glutton","good-food","health","healthy","holidays","homemade","hunger","hungry","inspirational","kitchen","knowledge","lose-calories","love-food","loving-mother","lunch","meal","medical","medicine","metaphor","mommy","mother","mothers-day","mothers-love","motivational","mouthwatering","movie","movie-dialogue","mummy","novel-writing","oily","party","philosophy","pound","presentation","protein","proverbs","public-speaking","punchline","pungent","quotes","red-wine","restaurants","rhetoric","salt","salty","script","script-writing","scriptwriting","single-malt","slogans","social-networking","soul","speech","speechwriting","spices","stomach","story","sweet","tag-lines","taste","travel","vitamins","weight-gain","weight-loss","whisky","white-wine","wine","wisdom","worries","worry"],"id":167445,"author_id":"Amit+Kalantri"},{"text":"Hunger gives flavour to the food.","author":"Amit Kalantri","tags":["adage","advertisement","alcohol","alliterations","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri-writer","bite","bitter","blog","blogging","body-weight","book-writing","breakfast","buffet","calories","catch-lines","catchphrases","characters","cheese","chef","cold-drink","cook","cooking","creative-writing","culinary","diet","dieting","dinner","doctor","drink","drinking","eat","eating-out","empty-stomach","essay","exotic","explore","fat","fitness","flavor","flavour","food","food-bite","food-channel","food","foodie","foodies","glass-of-wine","glutton","health","healthy","holidays","hunger","hungry","inspirational","knowledge","lose-calories","love-food","lunch","meal","medical","medicine","motivational","movie","movie-dialogue","novel-writing","oily","party","philosophy","pound","protein","proverbs","public-speaking","punchline","pungent","quotes","red-wine","restaurants","rhetoric","salt","salty","script","script-writing","scriptwriting","single-malt","slogans","social-networking","speech","speechwriting","spices","stomach","story","sweet","tag-lines","taste","travel","vitamins","weight-gain","weight-loss","whisky","white-wine","wine","wisdom","worries","worry","writing"],"id":213264,"author_id":"Amit+Kalantri"},{"text":"Going by Dr. Marriott's description, Zoe imagined it to be small and elegant as she peered into dozens of shelves, rummaging through the contents. There were globes and charts and atlases, pocket watches and hand-painted Indian silk, gold-plated cutlery, litter coffers of spice, inlaid combs, silver fasteners, trinket boxes, blown-glass figurines, turn-of-the-century postcards with foreign stamps, and portraits of Victorian authors in elaborate frames. But nowhere did she discover a stone of any kind, with or without runes.","author":"Christine Brodien-Jones","tags":["antiques","atlas","charts","cutlery","fasteners","figurines","globes","indian-silk","painted","pocket-watches","postcards","runes","spices","stamps","stone","trinket-boxes"],"id":255669,"author_id":"Christine+Brodien-Jones"},{"text":"All worries are less with wine.","author":"Amit Kalantri","tags":["adage","advertisement","alcohol","alliterations","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri-writer","bitter","blog","blogging","body-weight","book-writing","breakfast","buffet","calories","catch-lines","catchphrases","characters","cheese","chef","cold-drink","cook","cooking","creative-writing","culinary","diet","dieting","dinner","doctor","drink","drinking","eat","eating-out","essay","exotic","explore","fat","fitness","food","food-channel","food","foodie","foodies","glass-of-wine","glutton","health","healthy","holidays","inspirational","knowledge","lose-calories","love-food","lunch","meal","medical","medicine","motivational","movie","movie-dialogue","novel-writing","oily","party","philosophy","pound","protein","proverbs","public-speaking","punchline","pungent","quotes","red-wine","restaurants","rhetoric","salt","salty","script","script-writing","scriptwriting","single-malt","slogans","social-networking","speech","speechwriting","spices","story","sweet","tag-lines","taste","travel","vitamins","weight-gain","weight-loss","whisky","white-wine","wine","wisdom","worries","worry","writing"],"id":255715,"author_id":"Amit+Kalantri"},{"text":"A good food is mouthwatering when you see it and finger licking when you eat it.","author":"Amit Kalantri","tags":["adage","advertisement","alcohol","alliterations","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri-writer","bite","bitter","blog","blogging","body-weight","book-writing","breakfast","buffet","calories","caring","catch-lines","catchphrases","characters","cheese","chef","cold-drink","cook","cooking","cooking-classes","cooking-skill","creative-writing","culinary","diet","dieting","dinner","doctor","drink","drinking","eat","eating-out","empty-stomach","essay","exotic","explore","fat","finger-licking","fitness","flavor","flavour","food","food-bite","food-channel","food","foodie","foodies","garnish","garnishing","glass-of-wine","glutton","good-food","health","healthy","holidays","homemade","hunger","hungry","inspirational","kitchen","knowledge","lose-calories","love-food","loving-mother","lunch","meal","medical","medicine","mommy","mother","mothers-day","mothers-love","motivational","mouthwatering","movie","movie-dialogue","mummy","novel-writing","oily","party","philosophy","pound","presentation","protein","proverbs","public-speaking","punchline","pungent","quotes","red-wine","restaurants","rhetoric","salt","salty","script","script-writing","scriptwriting","single-malt","slogans","social-networking","speech","speechwriting","spices","stomach","story","sweet","tag-lines","taste","travel","vitamins","weight-gain","weight-loss","whisky","white-wine","wine","wisdom","worries","worry","writing"],"id":298183,"author_id":"Amit+Kalantri"},{"text":"Diet food is not a meal its a medicine.","author":"Amit Kalantri","tags":["adage","advertisement","alliterations","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri","amit-kalantri-writer","bitter","blog","blogging","body-weight","book-writing","breakfast","buffet","calories","catch-lines","catchphrases","characters","cheese","chef","cook","cooking","creative-writing","culinary","diet","dieting","dinner","doctor","eat","eating-out","essay","exotic","explore","fat","fitness","food","food-channel","food","foodie","foodies","glutton","health","healthy","holidays","inspirational","knowledge","lose-calories","love-food","lunch","meal","medical","medicine","motivational","movie","movie-dialogue","novel-writing","oily","party","philosophy","pound","protein","proverbs","public-speaking","punchline","pungent","quotes","restaurants","rhetoric","salt","salty","script","script-writing","scriptwriting","slogans","social-networking","speech","speechwriting","spices","story","sweet","tag-lines","taste","travel","vitamins","weight-gain","weight-loss","wisdom","writing"],"id":309626,"author_id":"Amit+Kalantri"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":19,"pages":2,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
