Slow Food International

Slow Food International is a non-profit organization supporting whole foods that are cooked and savored slowly.

How does this idea effect you and the environment?

An easel way to avoid empty calories. Many additives in processed and fast foods are chemicals that lack nutritional value and sometimes wreak havoc on your health.

Painting a greener landscape. The slow food movement promotes biodiversity of crops, organic farming, and the preservation of family (not factory) farms.

Example: The production of a 1-pound box of cereal requires almost seven times as many kilocalories of energy as it provides in nourishment.

Factoid: Founder Carlo Petrini originally started the slow food movement in protest of a McDonald's opening in Rome.
