Why “Eat Real Food” US Food Pyramid Feels Surprisingly Italian
After a long break, I’m back with a short reflection on the new US Eat Real Food pyramid and why it’s a positive step forward.
In this episode, I explore how this new US food pyramid "Eat Real Food" emphasizes real, high-quality ingredients and why the true meaning of diet is about lifestyle, not restriction. I also explain how elements like mindful eating, movement, and shared meals—so central to the Mediterranean diet—are essential to long-term health.
Finally, I share why the "Eat Real Food" pyramid feels surprisingly Italian, aligning closely with the values behind PDO and PGI products: quality, tradition, and respect for food.
