You can talk about food easily.
We all eat food.
We all think about food.
We all have an opinion (or two or ninety) about food.
Let's talk about food! Next time you're with an old person, ask them what they had for breakfast. Ask if that's what they have every day. Or do they mix it up? What was their most memorable breakfast?
Or, you can zoom out a bit. Maybe you don't talk about today, maybe you talk about fundamentals. Maybe you have an opinion about something you saw online recently... tell them about it. Ask their opinion. Ask if they ever met someone who had a strong opinion about food and what that opinion was.
Ask about their favorites. Favorite dessert, favorite cuisine, favorite restaurant, favorite recipe, favorite quick meal, favorite frozen food, favorite drink. Favorite food in winter time, favorite food on a hot summer day. Favorite candy, favorite vegetable, favorite meal from their childhood, favorite snack (do they snack?).
Food conversation can be endless. And we all eat, so it's common ground. Talk about food!
