long and winding short and curvy thick and Hollow it doesn’t matter for the Italians if it’s pasta it must be eaten very few food items have this sort of power over a Country Pasta prices in Italy were up by 20% while overall inflation had risen only by 8% so obviously the Italians wanted answers and that is why the government called an emergency meeting it’s been one year since that meeting but has the situation improved these women run the show here the nonas or grandmothers of Bari stretch cut roll and repeat but it’s not just pasta in Italy the situation is similar across Europe in 2022 food inflation touched 8 and 1 12% in Europe Italy did make amends though Russia and Ukraine were the source of Italy’s problem but they turned it into a solution slowly these moves are working Italy’s inflation slowed down to 1.3% in March 2024
