The Italian-American Cuisine

The Italian-American cuisine is quite different than the regional Italian cuisine when you go to Italy and eat. When they came to America, what was abundant in America was meat, and meat signified for this people celebration. So instead of making a mere marinara tomato sauce with a little bit of pork, they put a lot of meat in it because that signified that they came. They lived well now. And that's how the Italian- American cuisine was born.
