Slow Food! Torino, Italy! Terra Madre! 

What are all these words and names?

The words are for a group that Minnies belongs to: Slow Food Egypt.
The others are the names of places where Minnies Dried Fruits & Vegetables has been to. 

Not Minnies in person, no, not this year, but where Minnies products have been.

The Slow Food group we are members in was gracious enough to take with them some of dried vegetables as part of the delegation representing Egypt and its ethnic foods in Torino Italy at the bi-annual event called Terra Madre.

People from all of the world attend this event and Minnies dried mololheya and dried okra had the honor of being displayed and tasted there. 

Here are a couple of pictures taken at the event and you can see Minnies boxes :

Samira wrote this about it: 'a few photos (attached) at our Egypt booth with people tasting your products, with our amazingly helpful cashier Franscesca. 

It was really great to have them along because it allowed the visitors to taste our molokheya and see the okra and the other herbs. Next time you must come yourself. As one of the Workshop givers about how to dry the veggies and present them in a new, modern packaging!! Well done Minnie!!'

Thank you Samira for reporting.
