I (Mark) just returned from eight days in Italy with my wife celebrating 20 years of marriage. We walked and talked, sightsaw and, of course, enjoyed incredible food. It's easy to see that food in Italy is more than fuel… it's a way of life. Meals are often slower, simpler, and centered on quality ingredients rather than convenience or excess. And while no culture eats perfectly, there are several habits from Italian food culture that I hope inspire you toward a healthier, more enjoyable relationship with food. In this episode, we explore just eight lessons that come to mind.
