Food is a social medium like no other! Not only does it provide our basic sustenance but it communicates a sense of strong cultural values, of lifestyle and quality of life. Zambia has a rich cultural tapestry and one of our greatest gifts has been an abundance of arable soil and water and hence fresh fruits and vegetables as well as wonderful healthy styles of preparation. With the recent "attack
" of Heavily Processed, Fried and Junk Foods and its corresponding negative onslaught of Diabetes, Hypertension and Cancers- and with the increase and strengthening of viral infections worldwide a country like ours needs to embrace our own healthy methods of food preparation. In the same vain we live in a Global Society and while we cross borders, virtually:- online and through Televisual and Radio interactions and even more so through trade Mpoto seeks to provide the platform for the exchange of Tastefully, Healthy Food Solutions through all forms of media and interpersonal interactions. Through TV, Radio, Arts and Fairs and all available forms of Social media- MPOTO will challenge conventional approaches to The ART of EATING!
