Ah, what a beautiful little snail. We really don't care if you call it a snail or escargo....we don't eat them! The reason we're writing about this snail tonight, is because it is the symbol of the "slow food movement". The slow food movement started in Italy and it's goal is to encourage people to eat foods prepared in the slow way using locally grown products. A large number of the restaurants we will eat at in Italy will be members of the movement. That means we will get really fresh food that was grown locally and we will be able to take all the time we want to enjoy our dinner...or lunch. We can't wait! Bless the snail...
