"inventors"is the best diss i've ever seen for modern swedish foodi asked a friend from italy what she thought about our pizza and she basically said "as long as i don't think of it as pizza it's fine"
she and her bf would regularly hang out with the guy who ran the only italian pizzeria in town and they would shit-talk our food for hours. mad respect.
the way i'd summarize our cuisine is that the natively available food is basically "meat and parsnip stew", and thus we have a profound cultural (bordering on genetic) trauma which causes us to give precisely 0 fucks about what is "correct" or "looks good" and only care about it being tasty and interesting.
i feel like you're underselling our dependency on "old fish" and "just boil some grains"
Authentic Italian pizza was apparently invented before the circle.
