For Marcato “Healthy
Eating” means to promote your own and the community’s well-being because
health starts at the table. Healthy eating means an informed approach to
food that does not deny pleasure but cultivates it. Healthy eating also
means to take possession again of your own senses, impoverished by today’s
frantic life and by standardized food that constantly flattens tastes.
Together at
the Table: a Social Event
Healthy eating means to recover the
pleasure of being “together at the table” in order to transform the
feeding act into a social event, an ancient gesture that, apart from
fulfilling man's primary needs, expresses strong cultural values. At the
beginning of the first millennium, Plutarch already admonished: “We don't
sit at the table to eat, we sit at the table to eat together”
Diet as “Lifestyle”
Healthy eating means to
review and change the wrong habits and behaviours that impoverish the
ritual and social value of being at the table together. All of us are
familiar with somebody, either young or adult, coming home from work or
school, grabbing either a box or a drink from the fridge and collapsing on
the sofa in front of telly.
Healthy eating means to look
after your health following a healthy and correct diet, discovering again
the real meaning of the word “diet” which is a way of life and not diet
aimed at weight loss.
