Welcome to a delicious adventure where words, wit, and flavors come together! This eBook is more than just a collection of riddles—it’s a journey through the heart of the Mediterranean diet, full of mystery, discovery, and collaboration.
Students from three different schools from Sabadell and navàs in Catalonia and isernia in Italy have come together to craft clever riddles about some of the most iconic and healthy Mediterranean foods. Can you crack the code and guess them all?
Through this project, we have:
Played with words to describe our favorite Mediterranean ingredients.
Exchanged riddles across borders, challenging each other to solve them.
Explored the culture behind our shared culinary traditions.
Brought riddles to life with illustrations, recordings, and creative storytelling.
Now, it’s your turn! Read each riddle carefully, imagine the textures and flavors, and try to guess the food hiding behind the words. Ready to put your brain (and taste buds) to the test? Let the Mediterranean Riddle Challenge begin!
