I love food from Italy, or Italian cuisine!
me too! I'm all about pizza and pasta :)
Pasta, vegetables, olive oil and fish are all a major part of Italian cuisine. I'd assume pizza is too.
fish? i didn't think Italians eat a lot of fish
They actually do! They use shrimp in many of their pastas along with calamari. They also make many pastas with clam sauce.
that's really interesting. I didn't know that! I've never even heard of clam sauce
There are two varieties - White, with minced clams, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice and parsley. Or you can get red, which is usually a thin tomato sauce with minced clams. 
that makes me really hungry!
Many Italian dishes have only two to four main ingredients. Simplicity is key!
