They all hated her pizza.
North American pizza is different. Way different.
That family opened up a pizza joint in Winnipeg. Still there today. They dont make Grandmas pizzas. They would be out of business if they did.
Not picking a fight here. Yet were are talking about different pizzas.
Give me a pizza with tomato sauce and cheese I slap you silly. Yet it is a traditional pizza. In Italy! You are not wrong!
We added meat in North America! We made it better unless you are a vegan.
Even if you are a vegan we made it better for you too!
That old grandma made me a classic italian spagetti too. Olive oil and noodles. God that was awful. Cheese did help though. No tomato sauce or meat?
Different cultures.
That is fine and all.
Give me meat on a pizza, give me some weird toppings too. We ran with a good idea and made it better.
Enjoy your tomato sauce and cheese pizza. Sorry grandma has passed away.
You probably would of loved her cooking.
Again not a fight. We like what we like.
Italian food is not italian food in north america. Nor is chinese food.

A lot of this is either flat out wrong or at the least a vast misunderstanding of Italian food.
Naples and Milan can’t even agree on how to make pizza, let alone whatever you’re claiming.
