In a Unomattina segment, host Daniela interviews consumer‑rights expert Massimiliano Dona (President of Consumatori.it) to demonstrate how a family can prepare a complete lunch with a budget of only €20. Dona outlines concrete techniques for selecting affordable yet quality food items and avoiding waste. He explains how to evaluate pasta by looking at origin (100 % Italian wheat), extrusion method (bronze vs. Teflon), net weight, and price‑per‑kilogram, and warns about misleading packaging that reduces actual quantity. He points out supermarket cross‑selling that places pasta next to tomato passata, encouraging combined purchase. For passata, he recommends glass jars over tins, checks the vacuum seal by listening for a “click,” and stresses proper storage (refrigerate glass, transfer tin to glass). Regarding extra‑virgin olive oil, he advises dark glass bottles to protect from light, verifies provenance on the label, and sets a realistic price floor of about €6.50 per liter, warning against ultra‑cheap “civetta” offers. He also touches on cheese and cured meats, suggesting fresh grated cheese from the counter rather than pre‑packaged varieties to save money. Finally, he gives anti‑waste tips: move dry pasta to airtight glass containers to prevent pantry insects, and store canned goods in glass containers after opening. Throughout, he emphasizes reading labels, comparing unit prices, and choosing the right sales channel to stretch the €20 budget while maintaining quality and safety.
