It's like eating sushi at the all you can eat restaurant run by Chinese. Anyway, I don't want to defend Italian bread more than necessary, but we basically don't eat bread, we use bread like asians use rice, to eat something together with bread. There are plenty of options if you don't want bread, from pizza to focaccia, from farinata to roll pastry etc. etc. etc. > which usually means some variation of casereccio This is an exaggeration. It's true that most of Italy is made by small cities if not villages, where variety is minimal, but put them together and you made one of the most diverse food ecosystem in existence.
