***it then proceeded to become highly popular in australia***

pizza world wide

Think gourmet spaghettioes

based

real fact niggas:
***Filipinos are Hispanics*** <:hyperthink:462282519883284480>

Pretty much, they joke about being asian beaners

we **are** asian beaners

See?

And apparently the gov't of Spain acknowledges them as such

native island that got colonized and eventually forgotten by spain

Take pride in it

Well, when you colonize half the world, it's easy to forget an island here or there <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

@randomNPCno3 ofc italians didn't do the genuine flat bread and used the local grains.
But the construction and principle they took from jews, who brought it with them from middle east.

weirdly enough theres a bit of "spanish pride" heritage here
theres really not much of a "colonizer bad" sentiment here other than thinkpieces made on current_year

Though jewish flat "shaverma" does not feature a tomato sauce nor cheese

I'm a stickler, until it was known as pizza, it wasn't pizza

Your quarter-breed grandchild shows up on your doorstep one day, and you're like "shit, did we colonize his homeland?" <:thinkgon:560211224923734026>

Those were purely italian additives

Italians be like "PARMESANO ON EVERYTHING"

It's delicious

no, TOMATO on everything

@randomNPCno3 foods migrate and gain different names, such is etymology of foods

The host asked me "when"
I stayed silent.
Everyone drowned in shaky cheese

That's true, and as such. If we are going to argue a specific genre I feel placing a hard stop on what can be a baseline for it is good

At least they died happy

Another fun fact: pizza became popular among lowest class workers first

So it was looked at as a "crap food" by the elites in Italy

Of course, protein+carb and handheld

Working man's meal

That... until it caught up overseas

now it's the go to food of broke college students

lobster was also seen as peasant's food, but rich people are fickle and are always craving for different things

@randomNPCno3 another reason why pissa's with too much vegetables are shit

@Ayylmao damn you, I was just about to say that!

Same with oysters

but yeah, lobster was seen as "cockroach of the sea" & left to the poors... until someone noticed it was delicious

Oh yeah, and hanger steak, and flank steak, and pretty much everything but prime rib

"...at least they died happy..." Got me to chuckle, @Thundermark

on the same note, is caviar actually good or is it in the cycle of ""its only expensive because rich people like it and rich people like it because its expensive"
