In the 1980s the Whistler Question began posing a question to three to six people and publishing their responses under “Whistler’s Answers” (not to be confused with the Whistler Answer). Each week, we’ll be sharing one question and the answers given back in 1985. Please note, all names/answers/occupations/neighbourhoods represent information given to the Question at the time of publishing and do not necessarily reflect the person today.
Some context for this week’s question: This one seems pretty self explanatory, so we think we’ll leave it there.
Question: What’s your favourite food?
Patricia Evans – Hair Stylist – Vancouver
I have a vegetarian diet. Tofu is certainly a favourite, and they run along that line – broccoli, fresh vegetables. Out of everything my favourite is spaghetti with tofu instead of meat.
Earl Caroll – Ski Technician – Tapley’s Farm
Seafood – anything that comes out of the Pacific Ocean. Of all seafoods crab’s my favourite. It has to be Alaskan – the cold water has something to do with it. I go all the way to Vancouver for a seafood dinner because no one here knows how to do it right. Trolls at Horseshoe Bay know how.
Eric Wight – Self-employed – Whistler Centre
Seafood – I’m a seafood nut. And fresh only. Dungeness crab is my preference over everything else – if you were taking me out to dinner that’s what I’d order.
