Such is the love for food among Mediterranean countries that after a joint petition, put forward by Greece, Spain, Italy and Morocco, UNESCO decided to include the Mediterranean diet in the World Heritage list, in the 5th session of the UNESCO Committee on Intangible Cultural Heritage, in Nairobi, Kenya, last November.
Every year, thousands of food festivals take place in every corner of the Mediterranean region, and Greece, which boasts one of the healthiest diets in the world, could not be missing from the feast.
