Many years ago, I bought a house in the Garfagnana, where we still go every summer. The first time we stayed there, we heard the chugchugchug of a motorbike making its way down the hill toward us. It was a neighbor called Mario, coming to bring us a box containing some tomatoes and a bottle of wine. It was a very nice gesture for him to make. But when we looked at the tomatoes, we were worried because they were so misshapen: not at all like the nice, round, shiny things you get in a supermarket. And the wine was cloudy, in a funny old bottle with no label (标签) on it. These can't be any good,_we thought. But we were thankful_for his kindness, so we tried them.
What we discovered is that it's unwise to judge what you eat only by its appearance. Those tomatoes had a taste that reminded me of the ones my uncle used to grow when I was a child. Nowadays supermarket tomatoes look_ perfect but taste of water. Nobody's going to have a happy memory of those. It's a surprise they haven't managed to grow square ones so that they can pack them easily. Mario's wine may have been cloudy and come out of an old bottle, but it was perfect.
It's good to eat things at the correct time, when they're in_season,_and as close as possible to where they were grown. What Mario had given us was the taste of the Garfagnana.
