Walk_Away21 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) 18 hours ago, Miracle said: Both are great, but have most americans truly ever tasted something close to real italian? I Lmao I ran here to post this. Most Italian food in the US is garbo @Reverse Warholian especially so after I just went to Italy. Most Italian Americans will home make their own food. The majority of people will go to Olive Garden for "Italian" food which is absolutely horrible. Only big city residents have a shot at getting good Italian for the most part. I do love Mexican food tho. It's usually cheaper and quick. And even smaller cities will have decent Mexican food.

Well yes, Americans are not only an italian diet, they’re also eating American food and other cultures, just piling it on. I was just making a comment about the carb/fattening aspects in comparison to Mexican food, idk why you guys are focusing on Americans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that way Italians are among the skinniest people in Europe? The truth is that the ingredients that Italians use are super healthy and heavily controlled by the law, while in other countries there isn't much interest in the quality of the food you buy in the grocery stores Edited April 29, 2023 by Riot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
