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.

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.

About "fattening": yes, pasta is.

This tracks, every Italian I've ever met has been a complete snob about food.

Any Italian noodles with tomato sucks. Chinese noodles win 99.99% of the time

I wonder what Italians think about our (Hungarian) fake Italian food called Milánói Sertésborda, or Milanese Pork Ribs. It consists of Milánói/Milanese sauce made with tomato sauce, garlic, black pepper, oregano, basil (if you're not an imbecile trying to mimic Michelin chefs by only using little or no seasoning), and thyme (also often left out by the former group), pork belly, mushrooms, and either bacon or smoked ham; macaroni (the long kind); and pork snitzel (which most Hungarians think is a Hungarian food).
