Catalan Cafe
The Mediterranean Food Pyramid - People & Activity

Food pyramids omit what I’ve seen is an incredibly important aspect of enjoying a happy and healthy life: eating with family, friends and others. So many Americans are eating lunch at their desks, eating apart as families, and thinking that checking their social networks while eating in isolation is socializing. For most Catalonians meals are shared and social. And even a cup of coffee or soft drink is drunk with others. I wonder: how many people have forgotten or don’t even know how it feels to have that kind of sociability everyday?
