What’s Wrong with Slow Food?
Last year I wrote a post about a lecture I attended by Carlo Petrini who is the Founder and President of Slow Food International. It was quite a remarkable evening.
In the current issue of Metropolis Bruce Sterling, one of the more provocative and prescient thinkers of our time, has written a biting critique of the Slow Food movement in which he says, they’ve “…become a global movement to combat globalism,” and argues that it’s a movement that serves the elite.
An equally strong and entertaining rebuttal immediately appeared on the Slow Food USA blog written by Chef Michael Friese.
Let the debate begin.
