I've had several old Italian ladies give me cooking lessons. It was amusing seeing the split. I'd say 50% were like the comic, it's tradition, gotta do exactly as done. The other 50% went with it's food, as long as it's nourishing and brings people together you're doing it right, do it how you want.

The funny thing, most of those recipes were only solidified in the 1950s.

There was a sequel to this comic, iirc about putting ketchup in pizza

I'm probably a worse "traitor" in that I'm of Italian descent and yet I'm really not a fan of pasta lol

I'll eat it if it's the only thing being served, but I had soooooooooo much as a kid, since we were poor, that I'm kinda over pasta.
