Chef ate nothing but cookies

SHOTLEY BRIDGE, England, March 13 (UPI) -- A Shotley Bridge, England, chef says his food phobia has led him to survive on a diet of nothing but cookies for 25 years.

Andrew Forster, 27, heads the kitchen at the Sale Pepe Italian restaurant, said he was unable to enjoy even his own cooking because he developed a fear of food at about 18 months of age, the Daily Mail reported Thursday. MORE HERE

I can't believe a mother wouldn't take her child to get help if that's all they would eat.

What kind of chef doesn't taste his food himself? How would he ever be certain of his seasonings?

Maybe this isn't a true story. You can get a lot of publicity these days by making things up!

And, I'm with you, Suzie. If daughter only wanted to eat cookies from the time she was 18 months old, I'd think there was a serious problem!

I'm thinking this isn't true.
