A California Dreamin' of Pasta 🇮🇹🇺🇸🍝 Today, we take a trip down memory lane with the Costa Macaroni Manufacturing Company. This family-owned business, founded by Sicilian immigrants in Los Angeles' "Little Italy," started as a selection of homemade pasta in their store. Their dedication to quality turned them into a staple, not just for families, but for restaurants, schools, and even the military! The Costa story is a delicious reminder of the immigrant spirit that has shaped American cuisine. Do you know of other immigrant families who've made their mark on America's pasta scene?

🍝 Is pasta unfairly targeted by rising concerns about processed foods? Can the food industry be part of the solution to modern dietary challenges? 🤔 Rodrigo Iglesias, International Director of ABIMAPI, Brazil, will offer a thought-provoking perspective at the NPA ANNUAL MEETING & WORLD PASTA CONGRESS in Philadelphia (October 23-25). While pasta is often lumped in with "processed foods," a growing movement argues for a more nuanced view. 🔬 Food technology provides benefits like longer shelf-life, reduced waste, and increased accessibility – all important factors in a healthy diet. 📊 Recent policies target processed foods, yet obesity and health issues persist. 🔑 Is the solution holding the industry accountable or improving food education? Iglesias believes the food industry can be an ally in addressing nutritional challenges. Collaboration between industry, government, and society could be the key to innovation in health and well-being. 💡 What's your take? Can the food industry be part of the solution to modern dietary problems? 🗣️ Don't miss Rodrigo Iglesias dive into these issues at the fireside chat on global pasta perspectives! 🗓️ Join us at NPA Annual Meeting & World Pasta Congress in Philadelphia, October 23-25 at the Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown. https://lnkd.in/gq2uAqjP

The Ladies of Macaroni Meet in 1952 🍝 This photo, unearthed from our archives, features the "King Midas' Luncheon Party" held in 1952. The ladies of executives and representatives of King Midas Flour Mills Co., Minneapolis entertained ladies of the macaroni manufacturers from the United States and Canada. The elegant event included a cocktail hour in the King Midas reception rooms, followed by a luncheon at the famous "Salon B" on the mezzanine floor of the Mount Royal Hotel in Montreal, Canada. We love seeing the power of connection over a plate of pasta – a tradition that continues to this day! #NationalPastaAssociation #Pastalovers #FridayFun

Hoje, encerramos o Pastaria Festival 2024 em Florença, um evento incrível que reuniu grandes nomes da indústria de massas alimentícias. Durante esses dois dias, tivemos a oportunidade de participar de conferências enriquecedoras e explorar uma ampla exposição de fornecedores de máquinas, ingredientes e serviços para a produção de massas. Durante o evento realizamos reuniões produtivas com a UNAFPA (Sindicato das Organizações de Fabricantes de Massas Alimentícias na UE) e a IPO (International Pasta Organisation). Esses encontros reforçaram ainda mais a colaboração internacional e o compromisso com a excelência em nossa indústria. Agradeço a todos os participantes, incluindo Gherardo Bonetto (APPF), Fabio Fontaneto (APPAFRE), Margherita Mastromauro (Unione Italiana Food), Carl Zuanelli (IPO, NPA), e Lorenzo Pini (Pastaria), por suas contribuições valiosas na abertura e durante todo o festival. Foi um prazer representar a ABIMAPI neste evento e mal posso esperar para ver os frutos das conexões e colaborações que estabelecemos aqui. #PastariaFestival2024 #ABIMAPI #IndústriaDeMassas #Inovação #ParceriasInternacionais #FieraPastaria
