Italy? Aren’t u in Japan?

I am TDY right now so they sent me to Italy for a bit

But yes, I am based in Japan for next few years

this food talk is good shit

Genuinely good stuff, people should always talk about food

Whenever I meet someone who doesn't have a fairly wide taste in food and can't enthuse about it I get warning signs

Although I have met a couple of really nice non-foodies. Definitely a minority though.

Anyway, gotta scoot

Good talking to you Scribble. lol

All you need is the fish test!

If they prefer LUSCIOUS, white, flaky, fish they are GREAT people!

Conversely, if they prefer OILY FOULNESS in terms of fish they are TERRIBLE human beings!

Hey, let's not be hasty!

How about this? YOU pay for this meal and I will pay for the next one.

Sounds like a great deal doesn't it?

Feels like a scam

There is no scam!

You provide me with a FREE fish dinner and in the future I will reciprocate.

Sounds awesome. I wish I were in mainland Italy. I'm in Sicily. the view is cool though. you can Mt. Etna from my window

Oh no

“The terrible truth about your tin of Italian tomatoes
Court documents reveal that fruit from two food giants on UK supermarket shelves was picked by workers in southern Italy under ‘conditions of absolute exploitation’”

🙁

I’ve bought this brand too

“Both Mutti and the Conserve Italia brand Cirio supply major UK supermarkets with premium tinned tomatoes and passata, and are named in court documents signed by Guglielmi.”
