Home-made wood-kiln baked bread from Castelserás, Teruel ham, and oil from the official olive-growing region Bajo Aragón ('Lower Aragón') will be mailed to south-east Asia via the Singaporean Consul in Madrid, and may or may not end up on the table when Trump and Jong-Un dine together, says Ricardo Mosteo, chairman of the official production label Jamón de Teruel ('Teruel Ham').
“It's an initiative which seeks to put ingredients on the negotiation table – in an informal way – that inspire happiness in those around them,” Mosteo says.
“And it wouldn't be a bad idea for them to be served up to the presidents, since they are very healthy and olive oil especially is excellent for controlling blood pressure and reducing the risk of heart attacks.”
Whether or not the ham, bread and olive oil find their way to Trump's and Jong-Un's plates – or whether the Consular staff in Madrid or in Singapore share them out for lunch – remains to be seen, but Mosteo believes this is at least a creative way of advertising the southern Aragonese province and its wares.
