Gan gin gan yuu ~ means 'as you eat' 'so you are'.

It is an axiom which parallels Brillat-Savarin's
'you are what you eat'.

However, it goes further and suggests you also define yourself by the way in which you approach food.

Choice of ingredients, preparation and presentation are all an indicative of who you are!
