I mean, it may not be the best, but this puts portugal in a very bad position when we are all mediterranean with mostly the same ingredients.

According to this map I should probably be dead.
I grew up north of the toxic belt, and it's my firm opinion that Italian food is overrated. Well, except Parmesan, I'll give them that.
Lasagna is like a moussaka with too much tomato sauce and layers of pasta that should've been skipped.
Anyone who downvotes this is either Italian, or has a fetish for mashed tomatoes.
Downvoted. I'm Italian. Nevertheless. De gustibus non disputandum est. But quality ingredients and culture make all the difference. Fun fact: I eat pasta once a month and pizza twice a year. Yet Italian and Spanish ingredients beat ingredients/produce from any other other European country.

Wow this is the most triggering post I've seen in a while and that's saying a lot in these times
About "fattening": yes, pasta is.
I second this map.
This tracks, every Italian I've ever met has been a complete snob about food.
Man y'all have clearly never eaten in Lyon...
