I hope they’re effective in this context! I think the concepts are similar, but I feel weird because I don’t want to connote the same importance about salads that artists do about artistic things.
Mm. Yeah, there’s a line, but it’s very fuzzy and hard to pin down, and your mileage will vary for any given example. I tend to find reading chain restaurant menus an exercise in pretension (fancy language dressing up far-less amazing food items), but just describing the sensory qualities of food in artsy language is often the best way to say what you actually mean—aesthetics can totally cross disciplines like that.

Food is at least as important as art. Art only nourishes your mind, but food nourishes both mind and body.
