Said she went to Italy and ate pasta/lasagna for like a month straight then came back and ate Olive Garden and said it was on-par with the quality in Italy

To be fair to the lady, when I went to Italy, I was not overly impressed with the Italian food I had.



I love this board. Difficult to put a price tag on the entertainment value it brings to the table.

To be fair to Lilly, she was being serious. She wasn't trying to be funny.

I think it has more to do with people's expectations of Italian food. American Italian Vs real Italian is an apples to oranges comparison.

Real Italian is more subtle flavors with lighter sauces and the pasta dishes focus more on the pasta rather than the sauce.

American Italian is much more aggressive flavors with stronger garlic, heavier sauces, and cheeses. American Italian pasta dishes focus on sauce rather than the pasta itself.
