For our visit to Portugal we had to prepare a presentation about " the story of..." a product following the life of "something" from when it is produced till it is finally wasted, talking in terms of ENERGY. The energy needed to produce that product, the energy needed while we are using it and finally the energy needed to recycle it.
In this Comenius project, the Basque team has been working with "food", it has been our task, so we decided to follow the life of a PIZZA trying to know, also, if it could be considered a healthy food or not.
Our teachers took us to Pizzeria Piccola inLaudio. It is a place where they prepare homemade pizzas following the traditional recipe. And we learnt that pizza can be a healthy food, it all depends on the ingredients we use. The main difference with the pizzas produced in factories is that in PICCOLA they don't use preservatives or similar things. In the food industry they normally add a lot of salt and sugar and not very "healthy fats" to their products. Be careful with the cheese, order a pizza with more vegetables and it will follow the rules of a good Mediterranean diet.
