Hey, at least you were honest and didn't try to tell us of all the pizza you ate in Italy! If your
Italian buddy is making pizza which is popular among Americans, then he's most likely become
'Americanized' in his pizza making skills.

If he were serving what's served in Italy, he'd go broke.

I believe the Costco pizzaiolos are quite properly trained. They do a much better job than the folks
in Italy!

Americans wouldn't eat real Mexican or Chinese food either. We take
the concept of their food, add a generous helping of extra fat, some
sugar and a ****load of meat to it.

Frank Pepe, an Italian immigrant, invented what became known as
Italian-American pizza in the 1920's in New Haven, Connecticut. It is
really funny that Herring, who is about as ethnic as Wonder Bread,
thinks that Costco, whatever its merits as a retail store, makes pizza
that rivals that baked in a good, Italian-owned and operated small
restaurant that specializes in the dish.

I've eaten *real* Chinese food. It's very tasty, but it doesn't taste
like what most Americans think is Chinese food.
