Italian food is incredible — but some dishes get way more credit than they deserve.
In this video, comedian Josh Pray breaks down 5 Italian dishes people constantly call “the best,” and why Italians quietly get tired of hearing it. This isn’t about disrespect — it’s about perspective, culture, and how certain foods became famous outside of Italy while overshadowing everything else.
If you’ve ever confidently ordered Italian food and thought, “This has to be the best,” this one might humble you a little.
This is said with love… and a full stomach. 🇮🇹🍝

Mr pray when was the last time you made a box lasagna that junk takes two hours and forty five min lol
Ironic. I'm just now starting to feel better after a slice of pizza I ate a week ago that should have put me in the hospital but didn't because I thought i might have been battling the flu. Only to watch this video and have it brought up. I loved pizza, but not if it's going to potentially freaking kill me. I don't even know how the Hell that happened. It was only 2 days old.
