I was just thinking about that while using marinara sauce as a dip for my chips.

I’ve actually wondered the same thing. The whole diet is basically carbs with tomato sauce and cheese.

My body doesn't like cheese, but my taste buds do. I'm lactose intolerant but still drink milk and sometimes I eat cheese and pizza. My favorite cheese is mild cheddar or pepper jack cheese.

Because it's the type of stuff that is easy to grow in Italy

Is it? We have an entire section of the country that basically just grows corn.

I'm not a farmer. Go tell it to Ohio or Indiana or Nebraska or something.
