Talking about food seems like an obvious and apparently banal topic: eating and drinking are actions necessary for survival, always. So what could there be to say about this topic, about something that has existed since man appeared on Earth? Well, when dealing with the Middle Ages there is never anything obvious! In a period characterized by strange beliefs, superstitions and a strong religiosity, the relationship with food was also very particular and there are many curiosities to discover about this too. So, in a new and exciting live we will discover, with the help of Camilla Bertoletti, research fellow at the University of Milan and doctor in Mediolatin Philology, how they ate in the Middle Ages, what foods they ate, what they didn't and why, but above all, what beliefs and curiosities revolved around food. A journey into taste that will not disappoint you, because when we talk about food, anecdotes and strange curiosities are around the corner.
