Or even worse, they think that they do some typical Italian food when in fact, if you gave that food to Italians, they would be disgusted.

You’ve got me thinking of the episode of the Sopranos when they go to Italy to seal a deal with an old mob family and none of Tony’s guys want to eat the real Italian food

Vice versa as well! I’ve tried to share some chocolate salami with “italian-americans” in the past and they’ve basically run away screaming every time! For some reason theyre not able to comprehend that its not actually meat…
