Guy is just asking for chicken carbonara with no bacon and the server keeps telling him it isn't possible.

Then this lady gets super incensed and starts going off calling everyone that disagrees with her "medigan" which is apparently a derogatory term used by Italian Americans to insult people they think have "lost touch with their Italian heritage"

Reminder that most of these "traditional" Italian dishes were invented less than 100 years ago. Spaghetti carbonara was first made in 1944 with American Army rations of bacon and powdered eggs.

Reminder that Italy didn't even have fuckin tomatoes until europe did colonialism

Can you imagine that?

So much of western cvltvre is a modern lie.

While we're on the topic of tomatoes, fuck cherry tomatoes and fuck Israel for ruining backyard gardens with their cursed pollen that makes tiny fruit. They did not create cherry tomatoes but they did teach them how to be prolific invaders, apparently. settler

I emoji searched for lysenko but settler came up which worked out in the end

Sichuan didn't have chillies either. Imagine that...

I agree that's a little bit of a mindblower, but idk, maybe it's because I learned as a 白左 (/s) but I feel like people in China actually do know that.

I think in general people in China know their actual history more than people in the west. But I haven't actually been to China so I only see it from the lens of people who are able to talk to foreigners who are bad at Mandarin

And also I know that wasn't the point and I'm not going to pretend they were saints either but I still should point out, China wasn't the one going around stealing land, they got it through trade. And just like today we're not supposed to consider who China is trading with to be bad. Trade happens in a vacuum and builds the productive forces so it is always good. Mmhm.
