RISQUÉ LANDMARKS  Controversial Roadside Attractions  There is no right or wrong way to interact with the 11-foot-tall statue of a grinning man with an enormous phallus recently erected outside Trujillo, the biggest city on Peru’s north coast. The crimson fiberglass structure is the scaled-up version of a ceramic vessel from pre-Hispanic Moche culture. Famous among their huacos—as ancient pottery is known in Peru—are portrayals of massive penises, masturbation, and various forms of intercourse. These artworks have long lived in museums and history books as representations of fertility and life. But seeing the imposing landmark caused commotion in a country where the Catholic church still exerts major influence on public policy.  READ MORE → TOKYO, JAPAN Pigment Every color in the rainbow awaits you at this store. Pigment is dry concentrated color dust used to give fabric, ink, plastics, and, of course, paint their hue. By adding a binding agent like oil or glue to the powder, the pigment becomes adhesive. It’s an older style of paint-making as opposed to purchasing paint pre-mixed, but many artists prefer it for its simplicity and versatility. READ MORE → ACTS OF GENEROSITY Kindness Across the Seas The Choctaw people had been in Oklahoma less than two decades before news spread about an all-consuming famine in Ireland. Having been ousted from their ancestral lands in Mississippi, they were slowly making a new home for themselves, when, on March 23, 1847, members of the struggling tribe were asked to make a donation for those starving strangers, thousands of miles away. And, incredibly, they did.

ENROLL TODAY → GO-TO UTENSILS What Can You Use Sheep Bones For? These tools may look rough, but in the right hands they could be surprisingly precise. A British country magazine from 1958 contains this account of a man describing how his mother used hers: With a scoop in one hand, and an apple in the other, she would carve away the fruit’s flesh until nothing was left but a hollow skin, which would “crumple in the hand like paper.” These were apple scoops, and their purpose was quite practical: In the days before widely accessible dentures, they allowed the elderly and toothless to enjoy fresh apples without straining their remaining teeth.

READ MORE → RADICAL ROOTS Lesbian Potlucks Potlucks have been a hallmark of queer women’s spaces since the 1950s, when the Daughters of Bilitis, the U.S.’s first modern lesbian organization, began meeting in secret over coffee in San Francisco. The humble potluck has a radical history—from secret ‘50s meetups to ‘70s separatist communes, shared cooking and eating has long nourished the lesbian movement. To understand how the shared meal became lesbian canon, we have to return to a time before marriage equality and Stonewall, to a small house in San Francisco.

From former mining boomtowns to towns built by Black Americans as safe havens from discrimination, here are 22 of America’s best preserved ghost towns.

H Lidl Ελλάς στρατηγικός εταίρος 

στο Sani Gourmet για 5η  χρονιά

Ενώνοντας δυνάμεις με το περιοδικό «Γαστρονόμος» της Καθημερινής και τη διακεκριμένη 

σεφ Νένα Ισμυρνόγλου, παρουσίασε παράλληλες δράσεις και δραστηριότητες βιωσιμότητας

Η Lidl Ελλάς υποστήριξε τη διοργάνωση του Sani Gourmet, που διεξάγεται στον εμβληματικό

 χώρο του Sani Resort, στη Χαλκιδική, για πέμπτη συνεχόμενη χρονιά ως στρατηγικός εταίρος

 προσφέροντας προσεκτικά διαλεγμένα, ολόφρεσκα και ποιοτικά υλικά, από την ελληνική γη 

και θάλασσα και από επιλεγμένες συνεργασίες με Έλληνες προμηθευτές και συνεχείς 

ελέγχους ποιότητας.

Το Sani Gourmet, η απόλυτη γιορτή της σύγχρονης ελληνικής γαστρονομικής σκηνής, επέστρεψε

 στο Sani Resort από τις 20 έως τις 24 Μαΐου 2022, ύστερα από αναμονή δύο ετών,

 καλωσορίζοντας εννέα κορυφαίους Έλληνες σεφ. Με σεβασμό́ προς το περιβάλλον και τον 

άνθρωπο και με στόχο τη βιώσιμη ανάπτυξη, κατά́ τη διάρκεια του φετινού́ θεσμού́ 

εφαρμόστηκαν πρακτικές μηδενικών απορριμμάτων για την πρόληψη, μείωση και 

κομποστοποίηση των αποβλήτων.

Σε αυτό το πλαίσιο, η Lidl Ελλάς σε συνεργασία με το περιοδικό «Γαστρονόμος» της 

Καθημερινής και τη διακεκριμένη σεφ Νένα Ισμυρνόγλου, μία από τις πρώτες σεφ που

 εφάρμοσαν πρακτικές μηδενικών αποβλήτων στις κουζίνες, παρουσίασε ένα εμπειρικό

 μάθημα βιωσιμότητας με τίτλο «Βιωσιμότητα στο πιάτο».

Κατά τη διάρκεια του μαθήματος εκπρόσωποι των μέσων αλλά  και συνεργάτες της Lidl Ελλάς

 και του Sani Resort είχαν την ευκαιρία να πειραματιστούν δημιουργικά με πρώτες ύλες 

εφαρμόζοντας στην πράξη πρακτικές που συμβάλλουν στην καταπολέμηση της σπατάλης 

τροφίμων. Στη συνέχεια, οι παρασκευές από το μάθημα βιωσιμότητας συνάντησαν τα εκλεκτά

 υλικά από τη νέα σειρά τοπικών προϊόντων γεωγραφικής προέλευσης «Νώμα» της Lidl Ελλάς, 

σε ένα γεύμα 5 πιάτων με την υπογραφή της σεφ Νένας Ισμυρνόγλου, όπου τίποτα δεν πήγε

 χαμένο.

Η πρωτοβουλία αυτή αποτελεί μέρος μίας σειράς ενεργειών της Lidl Ελλάς και του περιοδικού

 «Γαστρονόμος» της Καθημερινής προκειμένου να δημιουργηθεί σταδιακά μία σφαιρική

 πλατφόρμα ενημέρωσης και εκπαίδευσης, παιδιών και ενηλίκων, πάνω στη σημασία των

 σωστών πρακτικών παραγωγής και συνηθειών διατροφής.

Ελλάς, Νένα Ισμυρνόγλου – Σεφ, Πέπη Σιούτη -Group Brand Strategy Director SANI/Ikos

Για τη Lidl Ελλάς, η βιώσιμη ανάπτυξη δεν είναι απλά ένας στόχος, αλλά κυρίαρχη συνιστώσα 

της εταιρικής της κουλτούρας για ένα καλύτερο αύριο και υπόσχεσή της απέναντι στην

 κοινωνία του σήμερα.
