Slow Food NYC is an organization and chapter of Slow Food USA that aims to support holistic food systems that are food for you and, basically, the antithesis to fast food. Slow movements have been increasingly popular in the United States where fast and easy seems to be the only criteria for sale. Still, it's refreshing to see more attention paid to the social an environmental factors of what it means to put food on the table.
