[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs and anything Italian &gt; Indian cuisine.[/quote]

It's like you get your ideas of Italian food from the Olive Garden. But your idea of Indian food is also probably limited to something like chicken tikka masala.[/quote]
OK, since lasagna and meatballs are not good enough for you, how’s this: sfincione, brasciolone, cucciadati, sfingi, maccu, panelle, torrone, cassata, spiedini, pasta con le sarde, sfogliatelle, vitello tonnato. I don’t need to “get my ideas of Italian food” from anywhere. I’m Italian and I have eaten this food my whole life and I also know how to cook all of these things. It is the greatest cuisine in the world and most would agree with me. I bet you, o poseur foodie, wouldn’t even know what any of this is without Google, so step off and stick to what you know.[/quote]

Well that really offended you! I'm also Italian, so I'm quite familiar with your "great(est) cuisine." But we disagree - there are a lot of wonderful, amazing, healthy Italian dishes. There are also a lot of wonderful, amazing, healthy Indian (or Malaysian, or Central American, or Caribbean, or West African) dishes. You might want to get off your nationalist high horse and branch out some. There's no "greatest" - there's just great food! [/quote]

Have to agree with PP.  I also think of most of the word's cuisines, Italian is far and away the easiest to learn to cook, and to cook well.  It's one of the reasons why it's so popular.  Why list mostly deserts here, btw?  Hardly an example of what you'd cook for dinner that is healthy.[/quote]
