@anishmoonka With 80 grams of pasta served in Italy people will barely tell you if it’s on al dente and chase the cook with a broomstick.

That cacio e pepe in Italy is about 80 grams of pasta, served as a first course. The American version is several times the pasta as the whole meal, with bread and a Coke beside it. The portion gap is the easy half. The harder half is what's inside the food. In Italy, around 10% of an adult's daily calories come from ultra-processed food, the kind manufactured in factories with ingredients you wouldn't keep in your kitchen. In the US, the number is 58%. The American grocery aisle is mostly chemistry that calls itself food. Wheat Thins, Stove Top stuffing, and Rice Krispies all contain preservatives, like BHA and BHT, that EU food has banned. The US's own National Toxicology Program has classified BHA as likely to cause cancer in humans since 1991. The US still allows both. The FDA lets companies declare their own additives "Generally Recognized as Safe" without sending them to a regulator first. More than 10,000 chemicals are now legally allowed in American food. About 99% of the ones added since 2000 were cleared by the manufacturer instead of the FDA, according to the Environmental Working Group. That same loophole keeps potassium bromate in American flour. The EU banned that dough strengthener decades ago after rat studies showed it caused tumors. Titanium dioxide, banned by the EU in 2022 over DNA damage concerns, still colors American candy and salad dressing. Even the wheat is grown differently. In December 2023, the EU banned spraying glyphosate weed killer directly on a crop right before harvest, a practice used to dry it out faster. The US still allows it, and trace residues end up in the flour your bread comes from. Italy's adult obesity rate is around 20%. America's, at 42%, is more than double. The US calorie supply per person hit roughly 3,900 a day in 2025 per the USDA, near the top of every developed country. An Italian eats a smaller plate, and the food on it is cleaner. Both differences show up on the scale.

@megboomerina Sì.

Ma vi immaginate cosa hanno provato i nostri genitori a vedere questo video per la prima volta, chissà se avevano capito che sarebbe stata scritta per sempre la storia

@Hired_Sellout Then you break for lunch

There will be one working stonemason in this town. He will be 55 years old, work 2 hours per week, and by the way, his cousin is the Mayor. They will extort you for hundreds of thousands of euros to do anything to the property. Permits will take months. Every person in town will have an opinion on what you should do with the property and nobody will like your ideas. They will pretend not to speak English. They will pretend you aren't speaking Italian. Eventually you will get it up to code and try to put it on Airbnb. The first rental group will shit in the hot tub. The local monsignor will insist on re-consecrating a chapel. If you say no, there will be community push back from women old enough to have babysat Mussolini. You will cave. "The chapel can host destination weddings," you think. The local monsignor will insist on performing all of them (for a fee) and he will busy every weekend in the summer. Eventually a Hollywood producer will contact you about filming a pilot there. It will turn out to be a scam run by a Czech pornographer. Your 3rd result in google will be nsfw. Bookings will double but the town council now thinks you are running an unlicensed brothel from their historic monastery. The monsignor will call the mayor. You will pretend not to speak Italian.

@monicapianola Fortunatamente quel pomeriggio mixai Sirt 500 e Cura Di Bella. Ho fatto un capolavoro.

Quando chiedete a Ilario Di Giovambattista di muovere critiche all’attuale gestione della Lazio, rileggetevi queste belle parole scritte da Francesco Di Giovambattista, Head of Scouting Lazio.

@fede_marconi @spicciar @aciapparoni Che poi il flottante in borsa è in quantità irrisoria. Io dico boh 🤷‍♂️

Ho letto su un quotidiano che “c’è un piano criminale per portare via la Lazio a Lotito”. Si parla di una spectre che agisce “da mesi” nell’ombra per far crollare il titolo del club in Borsa. Poi vado sul sito di Piazza Affari e vedo che nell’ultimo anno le azioni della società sono cresciute del 74,45%, passando da 0,81€ a 1,42€. E tutto questo nonostante il tracollo sportivo e lo stadio vuoto. Sarebbe bello leggere questo contesto nell’articolo, ma non c’è. Viene solo criminalizzato il dissenso.

@DanFriedman81 How to forget “don’t read to your kids before bedtime, it’s an unfair advantage “

One of the most infuriating trends of the woke era people are already forgetting is how professional media would write articles claiming a noncriminal (and sometimes also criminal) but obnoxious, antisocial and disruptive behavior that is correlated with a minority group is good, actually, and the reason you have a problem with it is that you are a racist, or at least ensconced in unexamined privilege. These behaviors included: Playing loud music in public places through boomboxes or bluetooth speakers, "Showtime" dancers who perform unsolicited and dangerous dance routines in crowded subway cars and then aggressively demand money from all the passengers as compensation for the dancing nobody wanted, unlicensed street vendors selling unsanitary food and "teen takeovers" or "flash mobs." Also, Gawker once wrote a piece defending mugging. I hope we have finally reached a point where we can all agree that laws and norms are good and that all these things are bad and annoying.

@tvdellosport Che boro ripulito

Lotito: “Malagò? Serve un commissario che cambi la legge“‼️ Il presidente della Lazio attacca: “Le elezioni vengono indette con la legge 91 del 1981, una legge di 45 anni fa e non va bene. Se una cosa non funziona va ristrutturata no? Va ridisegnato tutto“

@la_dorkout Do you know why some la post codes got access earlier ? I got my email to log in this Monday but may I know they got it 3-4 days earlier ?

So my 48 hr. ticket window just closed. Deets: -Gymnastics all sold out -Most womens sports 50%+ cheaper vs. mens -Higher-capacity venues = greater availability -Cheaper tix gone; had to settle for mid-tier -Spent $785 total on 4 tix (qualifying events in basketball & equestrian)
