      Horrifying, the tex-mex dish with pineapple. Harper forgot we have mozzarella sticks in the US, served with marinara sauce, but I am not certain Domino's has it. The other two look like combinations you can find in the US. By the way, is it me or Domenico looks like Eva's twin brother?

      They do! But that's because the average American is happy with mediocre. Which is why we (well, not me but....) eat at Fazolis and not the mom and pop Italian restaurants filled with authentic recipes handed down from someone's grandma that lived her whole life in Sicily. Guarantee Dominos and Fazolis would both go out of business if every American tried the real thing just once.

      As a dual citizen (America/Norway), growing up in both countries, I can definitely say American fast food chains in Norway are better than in the US, because we use local quality meat (amongst other things), and Europe is generally pretty strict about what goes into their food. However, fast food chains usually have way more options in the US, and _some_ things are way better (although not healthier) in the US, like deep fried food. If you buy “buffalo wings” here in Norway, you’ll get regular oven baked wings with possibly a dry rub.

    • @cisium1184
      @cisium1184 2 года назад +5

      I wouldn't say they are "better." I would say the food is of higher quality, which arguably is contrary to the purpose of fast food. The best example is probably Taco Bell, the biggest Tex-Mex chain in the world. The whole point of Taco Bell is cheap guilty pleasure. The food is garbage - it's _supposed_ to be garbage, and it's supposed to be dirt cheap. It's for when you're drunk at 1AM, or you just got divorced, or you're grieving a lost dog, or your student loan check is late and you haven't eaten in 8 hours, or some other reason you just want to stuff your face with cheap junk. You go to Taco Bell.
      You can't do that in a European Taco Bell. The food has to be of a certain quality to meet regulations. You can actually taste the individual ingredients, instead of the whole thing having that greasy unitaste that real Taco Bell has that so many Americans love for better or worse. Because it's real food, it's more expensive. And there's no drive-thru. This is how it has to be in Europe because this is what European customers (and regulators) expect, and because Europeans have little understanding of or options for Tex-Mex food. So that's what they will accept and that's get. And they call it "fast food" because the _brand_ is American.
      Americans would not go to this "better" Taco Bell in the same numbers if they wanted good food. Many would just go instead to a real Tex-Mex restaurant, which are legion in the US. Or they'd go to El Pollo Loco. This "better" Taco Bell would slide back into the faceless gaggle of Chipotles, Taco John'ses, and Taco Cabanas of America - and probably never make it to Europe in the first place.
      In sum: when bad is good, better is worse.

      And then I guess it was a scenic choice but at domino's in Italy the app works PERFECTLY and they suggest using that. They have also personal branded scooter to deliver. Delivery services are more used than calls. This is a false myth that they are not used. Maybe at the south is still more used to call. But mainly delivery services in the north.

    That was fun to watch. It was nice to see reactions from Eva’s cousins too. I lived on Domino’s Pizza when I was in college back in the 80’s. And I seem to recall that at least once or twice we would order the “Hawaiian” pizza with the ham and pineapple. It was ok, but being Italian, I never thought of it as a REAL pizza. To me, there are 2 kinds of pizza: Authentic, Italian pizza and American pizza. 2 entirely separate entities. I’m sure Eva would agree. 😉 Looking forward to the next video in Italia! 👍🏻

They require higher quality, more natural, clean and pure ingredients. Sad that we don't. We are paying the price with our health and the pharma/medical-industrial complex is making a killing from it (pun intended).

    Dominos in Germany has machines to flaten the dough 🤯 ! I think Dominos had to change their recipe because otherwise they would not sell ANYTHING 🤣😂🤣 !

      Dominos expanded into Germany by buying Germany's biggest Pizza delivery chain, Joeys. So they didn't actually so much change their American recipes as simply continue to use the recipes they inherited from Joeys.

      Yeah they ran away from here (Italy) in the 80s because they couldn't sell their poison, so now i'm pretty sure they gave it in franchising to an italian guy because american brands have understood that when they come here they've to brand themselves as "premium" in some way or they'll die in a fire in a month lol

      Trompo is traditionally prepared by layering meat on a stick like shawarma. Mexicans finish the meat layers with a pineapple on top. Still weird to put pineapple on chicken. I’m Mexican and find pineapple inoffensive hahaha, but then again I like to order a burger with a grilled pineapple slice

      Because they're European - they may not have known that pineapple isn't part of Tex-Mex and that hot dogs and fries don't belong on pizza. But sometimes you get really good results combining elements that don't seem to belong. I mean, that's how we got the Beatles, right?

      Well, we love pineapple and many of us love it on our pizza too, but italians also love pretending food is a religion and if you change even a little thin they could die.
      Anyway, pineapple on pizza is a funny thing because it is sweet and we are not used to the combination savoury-sweet (maybe on a Nutella pizza it would find more acceptance). Last but not least, we use simple things on pizza: cheese, vegetables, cold cuts.. Sure not chicken cutlet, pasta or hamburger and above all we would never deep-fry pizza, which I can imagine loads of US people do 😱😂.
