o The foundation was formed in 1989 to

counter the rise of fast food and fast

life.

o It was established to help people

understand what they eat , how they

got it, and how it affects the

environment.

o Slow food aims to get people to really

analyze why what you eat is really

important for your overall welfare.

You can change the world by applying three

basic factors to your daily life (Good, Clean,

and Fair)

oFirst, Good means a fresh and flavorsome

seasonal diet part of the local culture.

oSecond is Clean which is producing and

consuming foods that don’t harm the

environment, animal welfare, and your health.

o Finally, Fair having affordable prices for

consumers and exceptional pay for small

scale producers.
