Traditional foods: from culture, ecology and diversity, to human health and potential for exploitation.

Traditional Food International (http://www.tfi-2012.com) is an international meeting, organized in correspondence with the end of the BaSeFood project (http://www.basefood-fp7.eu). TFI-2012 is aimed at putting together different approaches and disciplines for the study of all aspects of traditional foods.

In the context of TFI-2012, Prof. Trichopoulou gave a presentation entitled "BaSeFood - Definition and documentation of traditional foods of the Black Sea Area Countries: potential nutrition claims" and Dr. Dilis presented a poster entitled "Nutrition claims within EU regulatory context: A potentially important tool for the endorsement of traditional foods of the Black Sea Area Countries".
