Proof that a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach
We don’t know why, but men seem to be a heck of a lot harder to buy for than women. They either never want anything or their hobbies are so extreme that it’s near impossible to buy a simple Father’s Day gift or birthday present that they’ll love.
But there is one thing that a man no matter what will love. Heck they need it in order to live so they have to like it! The answer is food, glorious food.
Despite what you think, even though he doesn’t take a photo for Instagram of each and every meal, he no doubt still has cravings and desires for certain tasting treats. Everyone seems to have a favourite from Dad’s favourite Turkish delight, to the husband’s admiration of craft beer, to your brother and his gluten-free food love and of course there’s your mate who is an aspiring MasterChef and just loves to cook.
If you don’t believe us, below are 10 convincing facts which support why a way to a man’s heart is most definitely through his stomach:
- Men love to barbeque – danger and fire are involved, why wouldn’t they love it?
- Men enjoy long romantic walks to the beer fridge
- Bacon.
- Man food is taking over Pinterest

- Males have come up with and created some amazing dishes from nachos by Ignacio ‘Nacho’ Anaya a Mexican restaurateur to Caesar Cardini who is said to be the creator of the Caesar salad and then there is the Margherita Pizza by Chef Raffaele Esposito who made the pizza to imitate the Italian flag for Queen Margherita of Savoy
- Footy Grand Final Day priorities: 1. Where to watch the game 2. Who’s bringing the beer 3. Where are my party pies and sausage rolls?
