Comment on My world is so much better because of immigrants
lunarul@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoNot sure where you got that idea. Pizza was brought to America by Italian immigrants, but it has existed for long before that. Modern pizza is well known to have originated in Naples.

Hmmm, I’ve “known” that for a long time. I know pizza in Italy is not the same as pizza in America and is typically eaten with a fork and knife. Maybe that’s what I was thinking or maybe I’m confusing it with a different supposedly Italian food.

Afaik that varies by region

You might be thinking of the classic spaghetti and tomato sauce with ground beef?
I believe that one originated with Italian-American immigrants
Professorozone@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Could be. Really thought it was pizza. Gonna be hard to unlearn this.

But either way, Italian immigrants freakin’ rocked the American culinary world and I’m eternally grateful

You American’s lost your manners the moment you sent off that declaration of independence huh? The civilized people on this side of the pond do tend to use utensils for their food.
