The Catalan Academy of Gastronomy and Nutrition has recognized ARA journalist Trinitat Gilbert with the Néstor Luján prize for gastronomic journalism for her series of articles "The foods we eat, in detail". In these reports, Gilbert delves into lesser-known aspects of very common foods, such as cured meats, yogurts, fish, or olive oil. The jury highlighted "its ability to combine rigorous dissemination, gastronomic culture and journalistic criteria, as well as a consolidated career in different formats and media". Two years ago, the award also went to an ARA collaborator, in this case the writer Empar Moliner and her desire to promote Catalan wine.
