Matthew Costello: 我认为食物外交的核心在于其人性化的一面。即使人们在语言、文化和教育背景上存在差异，分享美食的愿望是普遍存在的。总统们经常利用国宴等场合，通过共享美食来更好地了解其他国家的领导人，建立更深层次的联系和信任。这种方式有助于揭示彼此的价值观和目标，从而在更友好的氛围中进行交流。
Johanna Mendelson Forman: 对我而言，食物不仅仅是生存的必需品，更是一种强大的沟通和娱乐工具。食物外交有多种形式，包括利用食物进行人道主义援助、通过烹饪推广国家形象，以及利用美食促进文化交流。食物是连接不同文化的桥梁，它能够超越语言和政治的障碍，促进人们之间的理解和合作。通过食物，我们可以更好地了解一个国家的历史、文化和价值观，从而在国际关系中建立更稳固的联系。
