Of all the ways to fight the Mafia, having pasta for
dinner isn’t usually one of them. But now, that’s exactly what Italians
can do to help beat organized crime.
A shop in central Rome is offering an array of “anti-Mafia” food — including pasta, wine, olive oil, chick peas, and tomato sauce — all produced on land recently seized from the Sicilian Mafia and handed over to farmers.
Italian law allows authorities to assign property confiscated from organized crime groups to cooperatives, social workers, and volunteers.
