Holt's Exquisite Taste in Food

Holt, The Food Connoissseur

The Road Trip

Raymond Holt
I have zero interest in food. If it were feasible, my diet would consist entirely of flavorless beige smoothies containing all the nutrients required by the human animal.
[LATER IN EPISODE]
Charles Boyle
Now describe what you taste.
Raymond Holt
Cheese.
Charles Boyle
And...
Raymond Holt
Cheese.
Charles Boyle
Okay, that's good. But try being more descriptive. I know you love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Why?
Raymond Holt
Their components have a long shelf life, they're cost-effective, and they're so simple a child could make them.
Charles Boyle
Okay, I was looking for more of an emotional connection. For example, my favorite meal is a simple roast chicken and potatoes. It was the only dish my mother knew how to cook and when I eat it, I feel as though I am once again inside her womb. What's your story behind a PB & J?
Raymond Holt
I want a sandwich. I make a sandwich. I eat the sandwich.

Payback

Amy Santiago
Maybe we should talk about the deets of the case, plan our next move, grab a little chow.
Raymond Holt
No need. I brought these. Nutrition bricks. I have original no-flavor and who wheat no-flavor.
Amy Santiago
Nutrition bricks sound great. Or we could grab a little street meat. Kind of a classic stakeout food, but whatever.

The Fugitive

Doug Judy
Cap, got some hors d'oeurvres. I don't know what you like so I guessed, the radishes they put on the side for decoration?
Captain Holt
Mmm, thank you. Cut into a flower? Where are we? Las Vegas?

Cop-Con

Jake Peralta
Holt went to bed early cause his big speech is in the morning.
Terry Jeffords
Well, how do you know he's in for the night?
Jake Peralta
Because his breakfast order is hanging on the door knob. Water, comma, hot. Muffin, comma, English. And that means it's time for us to hard, comma, party.

The Last Ride

Amy Santiago
You can still mentor me if we don’t work together. We could meet for breakfast everyday. You could teach me over eggs.
Raymond Holt
Eggs for breakfast? You’re further behind that I thought.

The Safe House

Raymond Holt
Good oranges. Nice and dry. Not at all ripe.
Kevin Cozner
Fascinating. My orange is starting to rot.

Gina Linetti
I did a little sleuthing on your rivals. Want me to spill the beans?
Raymond Holt
Why would you ever intentionally spill beans? They're one of nature's most densely packed protein sources, and they remain unsullied by flavor.

The Therapist

Raymond Holt
I'd like to invite you and Jocelyn over for dinner at my house this Saturday. Kevin is making his famous rice.

Manhunter

Captain Kim

Raymond Holt
It's like there's something great at this party for everyone. Even me. She's serving my favorite dessert, carrots.
