Just bought Slow Food, Slow Life is the work of Italian writer Carlo Petrini. This is a soul figure who has influenced the life attitude of many people all over the world since the 198s.

Carlo Petrini was born in Italy, and since 1977, he has published review articles on wine and food in famous food journals. In 1986, we started the "Slow Food Movement" with a group of people of insight. On December 9, 1989, a three-day slow food conference was held in Paris, which caused a sensation all over the world. At that time, representatives from 2 countries signed the Declaration on Slow Food and formally established the Slow Food Association.

For more than 2 years, the "Slow Food Association" has held various activities to emphasize the importance of food education, support biodiversity and create a sustainable ecosystem, which has produced positive significance and far-reaching influence all over the world. In 24, Italy established the world's first "University of Food Science and Technology". In the same year, he was selected as the hero list of Time magazine. In 28, he was selected as the "5 people most likely to save the planet" by the British newspaper The Guardian. In 213, he was awarded the "Earth Award" by the United Nations Environment Programme.

See this long list of resumes and introductions. Makes me curious about this gourmet. And when I finished reading this book with broad vision, theoretical system and detailed content, I was even more in awe of the spirit of the gourmet. In the past, gourmets were just a group of people who were particularly sensitive to taste and had special taste. They know the ingredients, cooking skills and food culture. In this book, I read the definition of "new gourmet". They are not only a group of people who eat the most on the earth. Know better that the planet we live on is a "life * * * identical body". When we pursue the pleasure of food, we should also respect the diversity of food culture.

"Food is the most important thing for people". When human beings began to know how to make their own food, they began to have a contradiction between harmony with nature and resistance to change. On the one hand, we hope that more and more materials can meet our needs, on the other hand, we must maintain the healthy and sustainable development of the environment and ecology. Agriculture and ecology are closely related to our food. We often miss the "taste of the past" now, because the precious knowledge of previous food is dying out after the high development of industrialization. Whether it is the output of raw materials or the later cooking process, we all pursue unprecedented simplicity and quickness, ignoring the value of "slowness" in this process.

Good food had a chance to make us live a better life. It not only changes our living conditions, but also changes our psychological state. But now it has become a luxury to spend a few hours eating a meal. Although we know the significance of diet to health, we still can't compete with many temptations. Sacrifice the time of eating well to get a lot of other things you want. Busy day after day in city life, we almost forget what a wonderful enjoyment it is to spend time cooking fresh meals.

At the same time, our food structure is becoming more and more unhealthy. There are fewer and fewer safe foods available. Worldwide, the application of a large number of pesticides and fertilizers has made us lose those microorganisms that are beneficial to health. We thought that expensive food bought in the supermarket was equal to health. The author cites a lot of shocking data in the book, so that all people on earth should be soberly aware that what they eat every day is not as natural and organic as we think.

"Good food is happiness". Through the "slow food movement" advocated by the author, many people's lifestyles have changed. Strictly speaking, this book is more like a paper. He defined the subject of "gourmet" from a theoretical height. As a gourmet, he is eager to change the way people live through food. As a holistic science that actively improves human values, gastronomy should be the purest expression of happiness.

this book is completely different from the food books I have read before. There is no part that makes people enjoy it, but more is vigilance and thinking. Perhaps, in the process of pursuing delicious food, we should support the choice of original ecological foods and cherish them. Even if we can't directly change the ecological environment, we can at least improve our food and quality of life.

if everyone makes some small changes, it may become a great force. Paying more attention to ecological diet and ecological civilization may change our life and the world. Can make a little contribution to this little kindness, but also create a better future for yourself and your children.
