INTRODUCTION

THE EUROPEAN TEENAGERS BETWEEN CULINARY TRADITION AND FAST FOOD

We have begun a Comenius multilateral school partnership project with seven schools from: Poland, Italy, Romania, Portugal, Greece, Turkey and Spain. This project began in September 2012 and will finish in July, 2014. Our first meeting was in Rumania, in November, 2012, where we decided to create a general blog called “Mum's food or fast food “and it will be the place where we are going to upload all the photos, comments, activities mentioned in our application form, such as the album of the project, Grandma's recipes, the healthy eating guide and the new ones we decide to do.
The aim of this project is to make student aware of the importance of having healthy eating habits. So during this project we are going to focus on the following objectives: to define and understand the meaning of healthy eating, to rediscover the culinary tradition of each country and to know other cultures through their culinary tradition. The target language will be English.
This project will help students improve their English competence, raise awareness of belonging to a common European culture and know their own culture and their partners’.   We will also promote culinary and cultural traditions, having easy access to the results obtained in the partnership.
