Hello,
We regret to inform you that you are henceforth and forever denied entry into the Italian Republic
Cordially,
Ministro della Giustizia
- mingus88 2y agoWith everything going on in politics right now, the one thing that unequivocally makes me proud to be American is that we have improved pizza We improved burritos, and sushi too. We even put sushi in a burrito and Indian food on a pizza. You can’t stop us. We will continue to disrespect your narrow ideas of what it means to make your national dish by making it far more delicious. You want to deny anyone entry into your food republic? Give us back the tomato. You don’t deserve it.
- switch007 2y agoI hope you realised my comment was in jest lol (and I'm only partially Italian), but to get serious: --- "Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away" Sure, there are arguments against that. But when you see the manner in which American cuisine takes the opposite of that principle - especially when it comes to the creation of Italian-American cuisine - it's hardly like the laying of multiple beautiful, well-chosen instruments in an orchestra. Instead, it's a one-trick pony of: add cheese, cream and garlic. And lots of everything Fettuccine Alfredo: Loads of butter, cream and cheese Deep dish pizza: Tons of cheese. It's a meat/cheese pie Carbonora: "Fixed" it by adding cream and garlic. It's like believing you're improving an orchestra by always adding huge, loud crashing cymbals. Trying to eat at Italian restaurants in the US as a lactose intolerant person was an exercise in frustration. > the one thing that unequivocally makes me proud to be American is that we have improved pizza Gosh...
