    Industrial use of high fructose corn sirup is all American Capitalism, though.

    … And southern france hardly uses butter btw.

    sugar itself originated in India

    Lol, what? Also: it’s not about where the stuff came from but rather what the cuisine does with it. Italian or German cuisine doesn’t become south american all of a sudden cause of tomatoes and potatoes.

        Olive oil, just like any other mediterranean cuisine. In that climate, butter goes rancid in a heartbeat.

      Look I feel sorry for the Italians and the Germans but their food is American now. It’s just the way the world works. :)-
