Bad food. Seriously, food isn't good just because it's authentic, just like music isn't automatically good because it's traditional.

Like, some Scottish establishments will deep fry a pizza. Who cares it's not an "authentic" Italian food? It's "authentic" Scottish food at this point. I also don't particularly care about Italians thinking it's an abomination - they are free to think that, but I wouldn't have a go at the Scots for doing it - if they like it, then whatever.



Fried pizza is most certainly an authentic Italian thing -- it's street food in Napoli, and it's absolutely fantastic.
