  1. Is it true that everyone in Italy loves to eat pasta?

  2. Yes, Pasta is the main staple of the Italian Diet, however there are many other types of food that are also widely appreciated, such as cheese, wine, pizza, and sausage (salami).

  5. @SiriusUnrelated, im playing on making another post specifically on that topic, so stay tuned. I hope to have it up either today or tomorrow

    @Lawlsauce, yes I was there was lots of disappointment among italians,They took it so seriously that many just stopped watching the rest of the world cup all together. For example i called one of my friends and asked if he had watched the world cup matches, and if he had seen italy, he sarcastically said "what world cup" pretending not to have seen italy's defeat

    I'm a French person living in the US who did an exchange in Italy, and have lived in several other countries

    The pizza is amazing, there are a couple of differences though, instead of pepperoni, the most popular choice is patatine which is pizza with french fries baked into the cheese, crust is usually thinner, and they tend to use fresh mozarella when making their pizzas

    The women are somewhat hit and miss, some are extremely pretty, while others are the complete opposite. but I have to emphasize that there more women have a better sense of style

    @amidoinitrite
    not really, but people tend to try and have a certain style when they present themselves in public, for example you wont see someone in pj's at the grocery store, but you also wont see someone in a dress suit at the grocery store. so in short, more people dont dress in suits, but they do dress a bit better

    si, lo imparato come se fosse mia madre lingua, ho anche imparato due dialetti

    @darmanx
    the women are good, you just need to know how to interact with them, but then again there are some bitches, like everywhere else in the world. most women wont put out on the first date, but if you take 'em out on a second date they usually put out
