What are Italian spices?
Let's not go there. Just writing the name of the main spice makes my mouth pucker.

Vienna sausage - it is called a Frankfurter in Austria
French vanilla ice cream - it has egg yolk unlike regular vanilla ice cream
Bavarian Cream - cream with vanilla - not a Bavarian invention
Canadian bacon - it's called back bacon in Canada
French toast - pain perdu (lost bread) in France
Turkish delight - lokum in Turkey
American cheese - cheese emulsified with water
Swiss cheese - improperly used term for Emmentaler knockoffs although there are dozens of types of Swiss cheeses
Hawaiian pizza - a Canadian invention
 
I'm back with another boring meals on wheels menu.
Chili, baked potato, glazed carrots, crackers and a blueberry muffin.

Guess it beats nothing.
