The two interviews show that teenagers like and eat sweet fruits ( nobody eats bergamot or quince ,for example), they eat little legumes, the sweetest vegetables ,eggs ,pasta…On the contrary, adults like legumes, don’t prefer the sweetest fruit as figs or grapes, but both like pasta ,oil, tomatoes , being Italians !!We think our survey has been useful and worthwhile to realise how the food is considered by those students who did not know what a Superfood was .The students became aware and the teachers too !Thanks to our eTwinning project!
