Ark of Taste
The Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity maintains a worldwide inventory, of food products threatened with extinction by industrial standardization, that everyone can contribute to. The Ark of Taste includes not only ready-made meals and dishes, but also a large number of purebred animals and vegetables and fruits with almost forgotten flavors.
Around 80 products make up the Ark of Taste in Switzerland.
