Re: Lets Talk Food
[ QUOTE ]
There are so many threads in OoT about food; so many that it could probably warrant a seperate forum about food and food only.
Today I'd like to ask a question about why it seems that food tastes better from its place of origin rather than somewhere else. I'm taking about New York or Chicago style pizza, Mexican food, barbeque, pastries, everything.
I've only eaten Pizza in southern California so I can really comment on this. Does pizza in NY or Chicago really taste superior to pizza served elsewhere around the country or world? I hear people talk about how Rocco's Place or Rick's pizza give them gastro-orgasms and what not. I watch stuff on the travel channel glorifying 100 year old stove ovens fueled by charcoal used to bake pizza thats out of this world. Now is this really true or is it all psycholigical? Does pizza baked in an ancient oven really taste better than one cooked in a modern oven? I guess I'll travel to find that out for myself one day.

Im pretty sure Pizza originated in Italy, not New York and Chicago
