It used to be said that real men don't eat quiche. At least that was Bruce Feinstein's opinion back in 1982 when he penned a satirical book with that title. It was written to poke fun at American macho stereotypes. Bruce's definition of a quiche-eater referred to a male that might enjoy eating a piece of quiche, but would never think of making one, since that would be considered "women's work." How the times have changed during the past 35 years. Not only do real men now unabashedly eat quiche, they bake it with gusto.
