You never seen that out there? I know not alot of Italians out there but if not someone should open up a place... It may not be a food for out there tho. Pizza out here in NY is great Edited June 25, 20188 yr by Whispers
June 25, 20188 yr But @notsmokinjo have you tried pizza here in the U.S.? Then if you don't like it here I can accept that you just don't like it. Until then we will remain mates because I know you know not what you speak of, hee, hee

Until then we will remain mates because I know you know not what you speak of, hee, hee I agree, she may not know. She mentioned a pork pie im like what the hell is that.. I had to google it. Food looks good but whats cool and awkward at the same time is the difference in the way we eat.
June 25, 20188 yr I should also add that only weird people put weird things on their pizza here. Mainly it's pepperoni, sausage ( yes @Doreensfree, sausage!) salami, and ham and even BACON for the main meats. Then lots of different veggies like olives, mushrooms, bell pepper, onion. Some of pizzerias have stuff like spinach and chicken for toppings too
June 25, 20188 yr Author Heaps of Italians here mate, we have more than enough pizza shops, people have pizza ovens in their backyards... we even have a whole street of italian restaurants... our pizza looks 'different' to that though... That sort of looks like a margarita but sloppy and gooey.. We even have our own topping... The Aussie.... bacon and egg:
June 25, 20188 yr Here's a pepperoni and pineapple pizza from my favorite pizza place. Not sure by the pic though if it's got white or red sauce.

The Aussie.... bacon and egg: I looked at the population NY alone has 3x your hole country if those numbers are accurate. Says about 1 million out there NY has 3 million, NJ i can walk to has another 2 mill. Thats not what pizza is here your photo. No wonder you dont like it, i wonder what cheese and tomato they use (for the sauce).

June 25, 20188 yr Author OMG we have 1 million pizza shops... that's like one pizza shop for every 25 people.... that's just sad.

The pictures i see of pizza out there is not the same here... This is the numbers out there i read Italian Australians comprise the sixth largest ethnic group in Australia, with the 2016 census finding 4.6% of the population (1,000,013 people) claiming ancestry from Italy be they migrants to Australia or their descendants born in Australia of Italian heritage.[2][3] The 2016 census counted 174,044 people (2.8% of the foreign born population) who were born in Italy[4], down from 199,124 in the 2006 census.[5] In 2011, 916,100 persons identified themselves as having Italian ancestry, either alone or in combination with another ancestry (4.6%).[1] By 2016, Italian was identified as the fifth most spoken language other than English with 271,597 speakers.[6]. In 2011, Italian was the second most used language at home with 316,900 speakers (or 1.6% of the Australian population).[7] Since the arrivals, the Italo-Australian dialect came into note in the 1970s by Italian linguist Tullio De Mauro.
June 25, 20188 yr Author We might have almost the same amount of land mass as the USA but the population is much smaller... my area where I live has a large Italian community/background...Melbourne is really multicultural. I just don't like pizza. Its OK, I'm sure I can live a full life without pizza... I don't deprive the kid, she gets pizza once every week or so... but i don't have any. So... it 1 million aussies are of Italian descent... thats 1/24 ..... where as its 1/20 in the US. Edited June 25, 20188 yr by notsmokinjo
June 25, 20188 yr 300 mill people in US, 24 million out there. Very congested here, with all the aussie talk i may goto outback later
June 25, 20188 yr Author We don't have outback restaurants here... oh wait we have outback jacks but they are over priced and never cook ya steak right... better meals at the pub.
June 25, 20188 yr chains are always eh, at least out here. We laugh when people say they're going out for Italian and goto Olive garden . Good local spot for jewish, German... Irish -etc is the way.
