Eating like an Italian means holding a deep respect for food, tradition, cooking and the art of the enjoyed meal. Meals are celebrated in Italy, not raced through. Christina meets with two Italian-American businessmen who hold traditions close while succeeding, and visits with a family business in Umbria which values family over everything, while producing organic Italian products.
