Many dishes seem familiar and they are actually a part of Italian cuisine, such as pizza, lasagna, and spaghetti. However, when it was reinterpreted in America, it truly became its own cuisine for the next generations to come.

Outside of Italy and especially in the US, it may be a bit tricky to distinguish between classic Italian cuisine and classic Italian American. It often boils down to the sauce or the addition of more meat. Can you tell the difference?
