Everything You Know About Italian Food Is Wrong
About this episode
Well this episode does exactly what is says on the tin.
Financial Times journalist and bona fide Italian Marianna Giusti enlightens the lads about how many of the seemingly set-in-stone and ancient culinary traditions of Italy are very recent inventions. They learn about “gastro-nationalism” and as if that’s not enough, they find out which US president actually physically cleaned up after a nuclear accident.
