Nutella exhibition at the Maxxi in Rome: was it necessary?

I share the thought of Il Fatto Alimentare: ‘it is disturbing to think of initiatives aimed at children to promote a jar that could be taken as a symbol of junk food… Following this model, the new minister Alessandro Giuli could host an exhibition with workshops for children by Coca-Cola in the summer and replicate with McDonald’s in the autumn. They are not Italian brands like Nutella, it is true, but they are produced with local raw materials (including Coca-Cola) and this is probably enough to promote them in the Olympus of Made in Italy food and perhaps include them in the Mediterranean diet model of the 21st century’.

I hope some of you remember Slow Food’s denunciation of Mc Donald’s.
