Factory farming conditions and antibiotic-resistant pathogens emerging as a result of them pose an existential threat to humans in the form of zoonotic diseases. Why it’s time to produce and consume food more thoughtfully.

Ingredients
(for the wrap dough)
350 g of whole grain flour
2 spoonful of sesame seeds
1 spoonful of linseed flour
1 pinch of turmeric
cold water
extra virgin olive oil or sunflower seed oil
(for the filling)
ripe tomatoes
carrots
lettuce
1 red onion
Preparation
Mix with a fork and then with your hands the ingredients for preparing the dough. When smooth and not gummy, put it in a bowl covered with a damp dish towel and let it rest for about 15 minutes. Cut the dough in 4 rounded pieces, sprinkle a counter with flour, then roll out the dough until thin and round. Cook the wraps on both sides at a medium heat in a pan for a couple of minutes. Once ready, put the warps one on top of the other, making sure you cover them with a damp towel not to let them dry.
Clean the vegetables for the filling. Cut the carrots into sticks or into julienne, slice the tomatoes, onions and don’t cut the lettuce leaves. Fill the wraps with all ingredients, including the guacamole sauce. Wrap them up and close them on one side. Serve.

Mint has many health benefits, but in food it’s often accompanied by artificial green colourings. Instead, Galatea has created a green mint ice cream in a completely natural way.
We’re talking about Galatea, a company that produces semi-finished products for artisanal ice creams using high quality ingredients, natural colouring, excluding thickeners and hydrogenated fats, respecting the environment and supporting the less fortunate.
The mad rush to fake food, like fake meat made with genetically-modified soy, ignores the importance of the diversity of our foods and culinary cultures. It’s a recipe to accelerate the destruction of the Planet and our health.
Like with all foods, the quality of an ice cream can be discerned by reading its label. An expert explains how to do this, and tells us how their company steers clear of chemicals, using only natural ingredients to produce an excellent and “free” ice cream.
