The cutting I understand, normally it’s precut
But ranch dressing?..noooo
If you’re going to censor something, use an opaque black shape. These half-ass censorship attempts are ridiculous.
Americans be like “I traveled all the way to Hamburg and they ain’t even got the GigaMcAssblaster Five-Pounder wit’ ranch waffle fries and a gallon jug o’ Mountain Dew.”
What is “ranch”?
it’s mayonnaise and some other shit mixed together especially sugar. Americans use it to forget what vegetables taste like.
Pizza is a vegetable in America
For my sanity, I refuse to put those points together.
Good ranch is sour cream with other shit mixed in to hide the taste of vegetables.
The best ranch ive had was actually made with buttermilk and was good with a lot of things, mostly fried foods.
I don’t think it should have mayo or sugar in it. That sounds like European propaganda
It’s where the pizzas roam free under the clear blue sky, while the pizzaboys herd them.
Oh, thanks.
I don’t think I would like this :(
Then you probably won’t, it has a very strong taste
do europeans eat burritos with a fork and knife too?
I believe the rule is any food that is perfect for eating on the road while you drive 45min from your first job, to your second part time night shift job. All of that kind of food doesn’t exist in Europe or at least isn’t popular for some reason.
One does wonder why that might be… ^^
Depends on the burrito. If it looks small enough that I can finish it without it starting to fall apart in my hands, then I probably can eat it that way. Most of the burritos in the local texmex places though? Yuge.
are there texmex places in europe?
Yes, there is a lot of world food in most places, it came back with people from the colonies.
We leave our little donkeys to graze on the fields and grow up to become big donkeys.
We certainly don’t stick them with knives and forks!
Well… not without some garlic and onion, naturalamente.
What are these “Burritos”?
Delicious is what they are
We don’t have those.
Forks and knives?
No, Europeans
Yes. The answer is yes.
The cutting it yourself thing is kind of weird tho
You’re supposed to roll it over and eat it like a taco obviously.
Where’s the pineapple? Waiter!
You can’t even get a Baja Blast at a Kentacohut over there?
At least they have a premise for an Operation Baja Blast 2: electric boogaloo
I’d like a cannon that could shoot badgers at people, I’d call it the Badger Blast
Could you please stop badgering me? They keep scratching my face.
You just need some mushrooms mushrooms, or perhaps a snake
Italian “pizza” sucks.
Modern pizza originates in the US, so I don’t know why the fuck anyone would go to Italy and expect it to be better.
To be fair, it was Italian immigrants who invented what we know as pizza today, but Chinese immigrants also brought Chinese food to America as well—and if you go to China expecting the same kind of food there, prepare to be disappointed (especially if you don’t live in an area with a large Asian population. I do so I can assure you that authentic Chinese is completely different. Same for pizza.)
Edit: Why are you booing me? I’m right.
Modern pizza originates in the US, so I don’t know why the fuck anyone would go to Italy and expect it to be better.
Because the authentic version of any cuisine is usually preferred over the americanised one by anyone who isn’t from the US.
There are plenty of Italian-American foods I enjoy and I usually like both versions. New York style pizza is delicious, as is Neapolitan Pizza Margherita. It’s fine to have your preferences, but it annoys me when people mistakenly claim the derivation as the original invention.
Have you been to Italy and had pizza there?
You haven’t got a single clue about what you are talking about.
What the fuck are you talking about???
I’ve never been to Italy myself so I’m staying out of this argument, but I’ve heard from other Estonians that if you go to Italy and order pizza there, you might be sorely disappointed. Naturally there are others who say you can only get real pizza in Italy.
I reckon people like different styles and a lot of people like styles that Italians aren’t willing to make
Also there’s another effect: If you go to Venice for example and order Spaghetti Carbonara there, you will get the inauthentic version tourists are used to, because the restaurant is going to try to appeal to the tourists preferences. Now you have Italian chefs making an inauthentic version of their original dish, which probably won’t be as good as the actual inauthentic version. (hope that makes sense lol)
I’ll admit that I went on a bit of an ADHD-fueled rant on the end, but I thought I was reasonably clear.
Tell me what part of my comment you don’t understand, and I’ll be happy to explain it to you.
I understood you. When people go to a country when coming from America and expect the authentic version to be the same as what they have been eating they will be disappointed. Its not a better or worse thing its just very different.
Italian food here is Italian-American and a lot of it has significantly evolved from what you would get in itally. It’s not authentic Italian it is however authentic Italian-American.
Mostly just the part where you claim that “modern” pizza was invented in the US. Not a different food, not a variation with its own history - just straight up “modern” pizza. That’s a very sad and mildly insulting way to describe a global hit with Italian roots. Mass production alone doesn’t give any country the right to claim to have invented a food.
I can understand the frustration of tourists when they expect something different from the authentic version of a dish, even if that’s pretty unlikely with a dish that has so many different styles all over the world, but you make it sound like pizza, as a whole, is a US invention and Italy serves some antiquated precursor… Also, Italy serves many different kinds of pizza. No one should feel forced to go to the most traditional restaurant in Naples and order a pizza margherita, even though most people will probably like it.
Read Monarch’s comment below yours. I was going to try to explain myself, but they said exactly what I was thinking, except more eloquently.
Because “Modern pizza originates in the US” is a stretch, unless you consider those “deep dish” atrocities the modern standard.
an uncut pizza?.. am I supposed to take it out the oven too?
It’s a restaurant, you’re supposed to eat it with a knife and fork, not shove slices into your mouth like you’re at a fast food place.
Hard disagree. Pizza is one of those foods which tastes better when eaten by hand.
