“When I was 13 my friend got a George Foreman grill and it changed my life forever. we would invite friends over, get high and make the most elaborate sandwiches our prepubescent minds could fathom,” he said.

Adding, “I know what you are going to say… cooking is scary. You don’t know where to begin. It can be overwhelming. And cooking for a group of people, fuck that.. but i’m telling u, once you get into it, it’ll be ur new addiction, it’s like meditating. Slicing an onion is like taking a Xanax to me.”
