@lookas:
You are right, “milanese meat” is a typical Milanese (duh!) dish, but it’s also extremely popular in Argentina. They are not stealing your dishes, you know .

“Milanese meat” it’s an tyipycal Italian dish since last time i checked Milan was in italy not in Argentina

(How it’s called the strange mania that make you be picky when somebody talks about Italian food? I guess it’s called being italian, sorry

I know what you mean about Texas, Nathan. Usually, it’s stuff you that in other states, would be sold to tourists only.

In Texas, everything is shaped like Texas. Not because people have this disorder, but because it actually is. I grew up on Texas shaped tortilla chips. They actually are tastier!

In Israel, everything is shaped like Israel. Not because it actually is, but because Israel has such a boring-yet-not-square shape that oh so many things look enough like Israel that people actually care.

Turn it 90 degrees counterclockwise, and then tell me what you see.

What’s more annoying than the imbecilic fascination of some people at seeing things that aren’t there is the utter inability of others to ever miss an opportunity to talk about it like it matters. Who cares?

Heh. “Milanesa” may be a typical Argentine dish. But “Milanese” is typical everywhere else…
