Food Directory |

The Eatglobe Food Directory contains information on more than 1000 regional food products. Most of these are so-called appellations, which means that the area in which they have to be produced and other prescriptions relating to their production are laid down in written regulations. Only products which fulfill these prescriptions may use the name of the appellation to label their product. The concept of appellations was invented in France in the 19th century, in order to help quality wines stand out and to protect the names of famous wine-producing regions from being appropriated by others. It has meanwhile migrated to foods and is continuously expanding, reflecting consumers' desire to know more about their food. For each regional food product, we show its production area on a map and describe its regulations. Also, we list producers of the product in question, when possible together with their web address. |
