You mean American Italian. American Italian food is nothing but heavy creams, sauces, and pastas. It’s become a caricature. It’s all the comfort food but on steroids.
Having been to Italy multiple times I can assure you that pasta is a minority on the menu, and the restaurants that do have pasta-heavy menus cater to tourists or are specialty. The food has a wide variety and is regional, and most certainly isn’t just whatever it is you restrict it to in your stereotype.
Ah yes. The Italians with their culinary repertoire, based on the same 7 ingredients. 😜 🤌🤌

I don’t know much about American Italian. I’m from the Netherlands. 🤷♂️ 🇳🇱
But I can tell you’re passionate about this. I like that. 😌
