You've heard of fast food. How about slow food? Slow Food is an international movement that focuses on cooking and eating at a leisurely pace. Its members believe in supporting small-scale food production, local farmers and reviving regional food traditions. While there are 65 thousand members worldwide the movement is taking off rather slowly in Minnesota. There's about a hundred members in the state. But they say there is growing interest. MainStreet Radio's Laurel Druley has this report. {The "movement" began about 15 years ago in Italy. McDonald's was building a franchise in Rome's famous Piazza di Spagna. It upset a lot of people. But instead of launching a protest a man by the name of Carlo Petrini and a few of his friends got together and formed the Slow Food movement. They committed themselves to Petrini's mantra. "A firm defense of quiet material pleasure is the only way to oppose the universal folly of Fast Life."
