A few days ago i complained about my internship to a friend of mine who answered: "scientific research isn't an arrow, it expands like an oil drop on the floor" I get it now, i get it btw, on italian subreddit cucina (cooking) they talk about how an italian chef had previously done a similar thing based on his experience https://www.reddit.com/r/cucina/comments/1htahbk/250100536_studio_scientifico_sulla_cacio_e_pepe/ https://www.reddit.com/r/cucina/comments/1htahbk/250100536_s... Now, please allow me a bit of sarcastic nationalism, but Welcome to Italy. The cradle of civilization.
