The importance of purchasing snails from certified farms

Have you ever wondered why buy from ASL recognized farms?

Surely if you are reading this you are a customer who pays attention to what he eats. For us it is very important to convey the attention we pay to our entire supply chain to differentiate it from the ever-growing market of snails at low prices. Everywhere now in Italy, you can find snails, on market stalls, from new farms, and even collected in the wild and sold (prohibited by law). We have always tried to fight misinformation which can sometimes be harmful to your health at a gastronomic level.

Snails are a delicious dish if well bred in farms recognized and registered in the relevant local health authorities, otherwise if collected in nature or coming from improvised farms they can be dangerous for human health as they can carry pathogens or not be perfectly purged after having eaten poisonous mushrooms, poisonous herbs, etc.
