>>8274805
This.
I had authentic Italian pizza from the food van outside the Colosseum and it was worst than Domino's

>It's a americans pretend to visit europe thread

>>8274848
Not even American. I have eaten better """""Italian"""" food in my country than in expensive Italian restaurants

>>8274805
>obsessedfag finally goes full retard

>>8274844
Yes anon.
Rome is famous for it's pizza.

>>8274844
>I ate pizza in a notorious tourist trap that isn't famed for it's pizza
>I was disappointed
God Bless all those innocents abroad.
Should of gone to Naples, anon.

>>8274844
>Rome
>pizza

>>8274866
>>8274881
It's in Italy isn't it?

>>8274884
It is and it isn't famed for it's pizza.
May as well go to London and complain that the Cornish Pasties sold there aren't very good.

>>8274844
>FOOD VAN

>>8274805
To be honest Italians aren't very good cooks.

Italian food is great but French and British cooks do it better. I think the reason is, Italians tend to stick to the traditional recipe, whilst the Frogs and Bongs experiment a bit, Americans just ruin it.

ITT: Cleetus learns about regional cuisines.

>bumping your own 'let me bitch about X' thread

>>8274885
Or New York and order a deep dish go za.

>>8274901
It wasn't me (OP)who bumped it though

>>8274844
Next time you try this sort of shitpost/bait (as you inevitably will) try replacing Rome with Naples.
You'll find you'll get more mileage as opposed to the genocidal tier butt-rape you're currently receiving.
Also do a bit of research first, it'll help fend off the more difficult questions wiser people than you will ask.

>>8274891
I can't help but think you missed the point of his post
>>8274989
Worst post I've ever seen on /ck/

>>8274844
I can appreciate what your trying to do with this shitpost but IMO it was poorly executed and a waste of a potentially top tier shitposting

>>8275008
I feel like he was trying to arouse humor at OP'S expense, as opposed to deliberately baiting people. Pretty sure the joke was meant to be clear to everyone except OP.

>>8275015
Now that makes sense. If this is true then it was indeed a good shitpost.

>>8274884
>Being this retarded.

>>8274805
Italy is pretty disappointing culinarily, but that's probably my fault for being from a large port city in America with an excess of Italians.

>>8275152
I have been to Italy and it has some great produce, you just cannot gets the tomatoes and hams in the US.

This anon has a point >>8274898 Although not all Americans chefs screw up Italian cuisine.

Should've visited the places on The Trip to Italy

>>8274898
>Americans just ruin it.
And now I know you're talking out of your ass. Swap bongs and burgers and you might be correct.

I want to eat an Italian girl's booty

>>8274884
Also, Scotland is famous for its Cornish Pasties.

What is actual Italian food like?

This thread reminds me of that Sopranos episode where they go to Italy and Paulie orders spaghetti and red sauce instead of the seafood dish that was served to them.

>>8275178
You are just meming, if you ever manage to get a passport and leave your flyover state, you will understand.

>>8275199
Is booty cuisine?

>>8275229
Yes. I want to experience thicc booty from Italy, Ireland, Germany, Puerto Rico, and Mexico

>>8275161
There are just a lot of Sicilians in my city (New Orleans), my girlfriend is a 3rd generation Sicilian American. So the food is pretty on par with Italy, atleast from my experience in Italy.

>>8274899
Who is that?

>>8275245
>my girlfriend is a 3rd generation Sicilian American.
> 3rd generation Sicilian American.
>3rd generation
So she knows nothing?

>>8275257
Meaning their family cooked these recipies and lived those Sicilian traditions for over 60 years

>>8275257
>so her great aunt, who is still alive, was the first in her family born in the USA.
They immigrated early 1900s senpai

>>8275257
Italian food is so internationalized that even people in Bangladesh can master it

>To be honest Italians aren't very good cooks.


Having a relative that is 1/64th Italian doesn't make them a good cook.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

>>8275245
All Sicilians are spawned from......

My grandma would break your neck.

>>8275287
if you want to keep on living like in your old country, then just stay there. you move to a new country? adapt to them

>mrw they make pizza with mayo instead of tomato in italy

i literally puked on it and left the ''restaurant'' without paying

>>8275287
Are you a racist Italian from Staten Island by any chance?

>>8275296
Adapt to what? A nation literally made out of immigrants?

>>8275302
Sam hyde pls go

>>8275319
Who the fuck is that?

>>8275300

>>8275368

You're a fucking faggot fuck you, typical stupid tourist you can't even travel properly

I was in Rome a few months ago, and I definitely wanted to try out some real Italian pizza. I had met a few people around at some pubs, and one afternoon I got them to take me to a pizzeria for dinner. They order for us, just some basic pizzas (I know enough Italian, but my accent is shite). A bit later, I see pic related come out, one for each of us.
I'm utterly shocked, and I pause a bit as I watch everyone eat theirs like nothing is wrong. I think maybe these guys are just trolling me, right? But no - I looked around, and saw some other people with this garbage too, unless they hired out an entire troupe just to fuck with me. Fuck Italy. Pic related - the fucking "pizza.

>>8275972
That looks like strawberry jam with cheese and a toast.That is what I used to have for breakfast

>>8274805
>go to Italian pizza place
>order traditional margherita
My roommate, who went on a class trip to Italy in high school, thought deep dish was traditional Italian pizza because that's what they were served. I could have cried.

>>8275972
this is the greatest post i have ever seen

>>8276020
Think that's cream cheese and ketchup.

>>8274899
No one is using that trip you baboon

>>8277574
Cleetus is a stereotypical American name for a cousin fucking mountain dweller. Anon is implying other Anon is an inbred

>>8274885
