Wow this is the most triggering post I've seen in a while and that's saying a lot in these times
I grew up north of the toxic belt, and it's my firm opinion that Italian food is overrated. Well, except Parmesan, I'll give them that.
Lasagna is like a moussaka with too much tomato sauce and layers of pasta that should've been skipped.
Anyone who downvotes this is either Italian, or has a fetish for mashed tomatoes.
This is kinda funny, and I know the concept of "authentic" isn't particularly easy to nail down, but my experience is that Italian lasagna doesn't have tomato sauce. It's always been thin pasta, a ragu, and bechamel. It generally changes to match the tastes and ingredients of where it's being made, but maybe you'd like the version I know.
I had moussaka in Greece a few years ago and liked it too!

I confirm. Source: I'm Italian:):):)
I mean, it may not be the best, but this puts portugal in a very bad position when we are all mediterranean with mostly the same ingredients.

About "fattening": yes, pasta is.
Any Italian noodles with tomato sucks. Chinese noodles win 99.99% of the time
What about fat spicy indian curry tho?
Non-mediterran = toxic? Slightly biased i say.
