15th Anniversary Mediterranean Diet Conference
An International Science and Culinary Conference
Hyatt Regency Cambridge - Cambridge, MA
Sunday, November 16, 2008 2:00 PM - Tuesday, November 18, 2008 4:00 PM
Just fifteen years ago Americans considered olive oil an “ethnic” product, and only a few markets offered sizable selections of Mediterranean foods like fresh olives, hummus, olive oils, balsamic vinegars and sun-dried tomatoes. That all changed in January 1993, when Oldways and a group of eminent scientists and award-winning chefs and food writers defined the concept of the Mediterranean Diet as a delicious, pleasurable, and very healthful way to eat. To popularize and help consumers understand this dietary pattern at a glance Oldways developed the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid, the now widely known colorful graphic designed to help consumers.
Oldways’ 15th Anniversary International Conference on the Mediterranean Diet will present the overwhelming and ever-mounting scientific evidence that details why everyone can benefit from this healthy approach. Also, in these days of spiraling food costs, Oldways will offer nitty-gritty advice on how “eating the Med way” can be affordable for everyone.
Conference Sponsors include the California Walnut Commission, Gaea, Lucini Italia, the Cheeses of France, International Collection, The California Avocado Commission, The National Pasta Association, the United States Potato Board, the Turkish Olive and Olive Oil Promotion Committee, Barilla USA, and the Italian Trade Commission and Authentic Italian Food. The Quality of Life.
