If You Go to Italy, Eat Italian, Not Burger King's, You Utter Pillock!BY: Alessandro Saetta Vinci | Category: Travel | Submitted: 2010-03-20 22:33:43
When you travel you can't just "do stuff". There are rules. You do not try to make a German girl laugh, they don't know how to laugh anyway. You do not wear sunglasses in Scotland, because in Scotland there's no sun, they've never seen it, so they don't know what sunglasses are for, therefore you'll be mistaken for a Swiss hitman. You do not talk about football to anyone from Manchester before you've accurately verified wheter they support Manchester United or Manchester City. And you do not eat filthy fast food in Italy or France. Bloody hell! Get some spaghetti, or some escargot, you daft ignorant pirate! You see, over the years I've seen many people brutalizing places, and eating up their dignity. The only reason why in Italy or in France are McDonald's or Burger King's is because they are a franchise, they serve their purpose, which is to show off, and make you feel "internationalized" much like your national airlines, no matter where you from, you feel like you need one in your country, although you don't really understand why. You can't treat the place you visit like a thing, it's not a bloody thing. People have a soul and a personality. It's the same for places, every city, every tourist destination has a soul and a personality as well. Have you ever noticed how some girls look better on the beach, and some others dressed for the night? Or how some girls look better at night rather than during the day? It's the same for every city. They've got a soul. If you've ever been to London you know that London is a "british" place, everyone is constantly running but still being restrained and calm. If you got to Monte-Carlo you'll notice how it looks and feels expensive and classy. If you go to Las Vegas you can feel it being so arrogant and young. So there are some things you can't do, you wouldn't go to Vegas to visit museums, would you? You wouldn't go to Rome to party, you would go there for art. And you wouldn't go to Ibiza to go sightseeing, you'd go there to have fun. So why would you go to places like Italy or France, that have such a complicated and fascinating and old culinary tradition, not to mention how genuinely exquisite food is there, to eat rubbish? Going to Italy and eating fast-food, is a bit like going home with Keira Knightley and then calling up a hooker for the night. So if you go to Italy and eat fast-food, remember, you're acting like a 60 year old bald pervert.
