The comments under these images are just as engaging as the images themselves. Italians do not hold back from criticizing the dishes with no mercy.
They associate the food in the photographs with vomit and other terrible things. They express their disgust that someone actually eats this and go on to say that what they are seeing is an offense.
Obviously, it’s understandable that they are mostly joking, but given their love for their food, a part of an Italian's spirit is likely experiencing pain at the sight of things on pizza that they believe should never be placed on it.
