Why are Italians so autistic about food compared to other cultures/cuisines? As long as its not an abominations other cultures seem far more open to alterations to dishes or fusion dishes.

They'll freak out when its not "authentic Italian enough" but who said they were ever making an authentic Italian pizza?

it's a white thing you wouldn't get it.

It's a normal reaction to people taking your food and making extremely shitty inferior+retarded versions but a soulless new worlder with no culture to speak of could never comprehend.

>Some Italian-American who has never set foot in Italy ever: NOOOOOO YOU CAN'T PUT THE CREAM IN THE CARBONARA BECAUSE YOU PREFER THAT CONSISTENCY!!
>Some Indian: Lol and some Scotsman called it Chicken Tikka Masala, pretty cool, we'll start cooking it here too.

insecurity because they know deep down their mashed tomato slop is massively overrated and can't withstand scrutiny

I am more than sure that Marco Pierre White definitely knows a lot more than that Italian old prick

you're talking about a people who once ran the Roman empire, arguably the greatest empire that ever existed. Now all they have left are sports cars, tacky shirts and pasta so they cling on to that glory for dear life. I mean they're so invested in pasta that they call every other food anti-pasta.

Good job. You've discovered an opinion.

Its pretty funny to see because they'll talk about these dishes like they're sacred family recipes and traditions that go back centuries, when the majority of famous Italian dishes were invented around 1900 - 1920. So we've just hit the 100 year mark for a lot of them, and even then a lot of them were modernized in America by Italian-Americans and then that trickled back to Italy. So when they talk about "purity" and "tasting like home" they're talking about from dish that was most likely invented in Chicago

>He no do it like mama Bonjourno deep in the Italian countrisideeeh, in the dusty rural Sicilia, oh nooo, he no have her dusty hands and rustic ways...

Because eating food was a social occasion involving many different people, it didn't involved tense conversations with your parents whilst they chatted about work
They also see food as something positive, not something to be afraid of like most generic whites are because of saturated fat and salt scare campaigns
Also that guy is running a business, why would you expect him not to do everything he could to get views?

Americans wouldn't know the first thing about Italian food, Barney.

Watched a few of these and its really petty shit
>Hates Marco's Carbonara because it was his knorr stockpot shill video and he uses a stockpot to flavor the water, even though that gives the pasta move flavor
>Hates the Ramsay Carbonara because he use some veggies and NOOOO ITSA JUSTA PANCETTA, and also uses cream

They're autistic because they know their food is mid. Americans being infatuated in ruining it further only makes things worse.

Tomatoes are a god tier food and they built Rome on their own

Because we have pride, without us you would be eating shit.

Lets see how the muslims like my ground pork rendition of stuffed and grilled pita bread!

I think a lot of it has to do with Italian immigrants being unable to bring nothing to the table skill wise or culturally except for cooking, so that's what they focused for. A lot opened restaurants, prided themselves on their cooking on "something" to give America. This inflated a lot of their ancestor's self importance when it comes to cooking, as if they were experts in cuisine and not that it was the only thing they had. They also believed their bullshit that they used to get customers in, that these recipes were hundreds of years old and not invented either that decade or was a regional dish that they've alterered to be more paletable.

So fast forward even more to the current day and a bunch of White Americans who are in denial that that's what they are, and get butthurt by the Americans have no culture meme, LARP as real Italians because their great grandmother was, and act like they can dictate Italian food.

It's the same shit as that Uncle Roger character, it's all clickbait for losers who have nothing going on in their lives so they live vicariously through the food of a country they feel a connection with but have probably never even set foot in, much less spent most of their lives in. That's been my experience with people who protest to such degrees, at least.

Funny I don't see this shit ever about retarded japanese pizza that puts mayo, corn, seaweed and other retarded nonsense on there. Just when it's white westerners, interesting.

Whenever I get into an argument with a fellow bong I always think about Italians sperging out. They take it too far imo, but at least their cuisine is actually decent. Brits will defend a bacon butty (a ONE INGREDIENT sandwich) with the same fervour as an Italian talking about carbonara.
I know this is a huge detour from the thread, but fuck me British food sucks the side of limp dog dicks

Agree 100%. They were like "these British, Irish, and German immagrants really love my food" but they didn't know that those people came from cultures with dogshit cuisines and were very easily impressed. Those motherfuckers would eat lasanga and think 'this is the greatest thing I've ever put in mouth'

Romans, Conquistadors, what's the difference at the end of the day? I go to Spain on vacation and get pizza.
