Via de importeur ontving ik bericht dat de buffels die de melk voor onze buffelmozzarella maken wél een goed leven hebben. De producent heeft een uitgebreide brief gestuurd met natuurlijk alle certificeringen, toeters en bellen waar bureaucratie dol op is. Hier onder een kopie. Misschien is Nederlandse buffelmozzarella toch iets om eens beter naar te kijken. Het is makkelijker zelf te controleren waar het vandaan komt als het om de hoek is. Aan de andere kant zijn tradities van producten ook waardevol en daar voor zou je het toch in de streek van oorsprong moeten kopen. Dilemma...
