Why are non-Italians so obsessed with Italian food? And bastardized

>>8946031

Why do real Italians never shut the fuck up about being Italian? It's like a humble brag for being a retard

>>8946031
Tastes good, pretty available , cheap and easy to make/buy

Not dry or implicitly spicy so it's got broader appeal

It's not like we can't tell by the chest hair and the grease

Because real Italian food is complete and utter dogshit. The fact that other people managed to make it something palatable is a truly marvelous feat.

How is it any more popular than bastardized Mexican or Chinese food? The only difference is I don't hear fourth generation immigrants from other countries whining about Taco Bell or Panda Express all the time.

Bibbidi boobidi bobbidi!

>Why are non-Italians so obsessed with Italian food? And bastardized versions of it at that, like meatball subs, chicken parm, etc. Then they don't know wtf cioppino is when you suggest it to them.
