slow food shouldn’t be taken literally, it’s not about eating slowly, it’s about taking enough time to be aware of what you’re eating. The more a type of food is characterized by its region and/or by the people that have grown it, cultivated it or transformed it, the more it becomes Slow Food
Slow Food is actually the fight for biodiversity, the safeguard of the genetic heritage of anything edible on earth, the respect for traditions and ancestral savoir-faire
