:marseyburger: get mad when someone points out that what they call an Italian sandwich has nothing to do with Italy

https://old.reddit.com/r/iamveryculinary/comments/1btuwrp/italian_learns_what_an_italian_sandwich_is_and/?sort=controversial

The original post is this disgusting-looking /r/food post: [i ate] a deluxe Italian sandwich:

Someone points out that this has nothing to do with Italy:

Wikipedia doesn't say to use 5kg or random mixed meat and 5 grams of veggies. Wrong proportion and wrong ingredients. It doesn't make sense to do it like this.

But I guess it's the “American way”. ==> American sandwich

They get downvoted to -221 and crossposted to /r/iamveryculinary: Italian learns what an "Italian" sandwich is and immediately becomes the authority on why OP is making it wrong


Let's see what angry Redditors have to say:

Eep pray this guy never learns about French toast.

I don't understand this, French toast is something that they actually eat in France.


I just imagine some dude sitting on the potty angrily commenting on a small picture of a sandwich on his phone.

Just like you sitting on the potty angrily commenting on a comment on a small picture of a sandwich on his phone.


Why is immigration and ancestry such a difficult concept for some people to understand?


Peepeeheads pretending to be Italians and the 'No true Scotsman' fallacy, name a more iconic duo

You mean like someone who calls it an Italian sandwich?


@KONGLAND for once I'm begging you to see the light.

You do realize that the proportions & ingredients in that are vastly different from the one in OP? The meat layer is about as thick as the crust. In op's pic it's triple that. Not to mention op mixes tons of different meats, while yours only has one type.
