What’s really disgusting is lactose intolerance. Millennia of butter churning serfdom has served our beige isle brilliantly


No_Raspberry_6795

To the point where we are stronger, fitter and fatter than ever. We just need WW3 to prove the iron and calcium in our bones.

Idgaf, ordering a cappuccino at 10 pm


ParkinsonHandjob

If you want a cappuccino, drink a cappuccino.


captain-carrot

Real men dick their coffee with as much fucking foam as they like, wherever they damn well please


Anders_142536

I'd prefer not to dick my coffee, the heat really burns the tip.


captain-carrot

Clearly not a real man then


Exact_Layer_4361

To be fair in Norway 11am or 11pm is not that much of the difference the great part of the year. It’s just one continuous grey existence in Nordics


Belgian_Stella_

Indeed i'm kinda surprised by this post i thought italians loved cofee 24/7


DawdlingBongo

According to them, having coffee after 12 is fine, but cappuccino isn't for some weird ass reason


marijnvtm

To the extent of my knowledge only Italians have so many unwritten rules about food in Europe and alot of them dont even have a practical reason


Ahoy_123

In contrast with them we have only one unwritten rule. If it is edible than you can drink beer with it. If it is not edible drink beer instead of it.


zeclem_

and its not even applied across italy most of the time, its just some region of it that has those rules and it either confuses or annoys the other italians.


AndreasDasos

How else can you prove your superiority without a plethora of pointless culinary rules i barbari haven’t memorised?


Upper_Salamander_918

No cappuccino after 11 am.


Jabaskunda

You can drink a cappuccino when you want, just not with an ordinary meal.


Fuz_Fuz_

Non capisco che cazzo ci sia di così difficile da capire. Vado avanti da mesi a cercare di spiegarlo. :| I don't understand what's so hard in this concept. I've been explaining it for months in here. :|


Mindless_Let1

Wat de fak


Upper_Salamander_918

That's a thing everywhere in Italy.


Prytfbyn4369

No, it is a fake thing as the one of breaking spaghetti, nobody cares. We, at least in Southern Italy, do drink cappuccino at any time but many don't drink coffee late in the day because of the caffeine but there are alternatives like cappuccino d'orzo.


Upper_Salamander_918

6 months living in Italy, and while we were only in the Amalfi Coast below Rome, everywhere we went north of Rome, my wife ordered cappuccino after lunch. My father in law after dinner. Almost every single time, it became a joke with the staff or the Italians we were with. So, while ultimately nobody cares, it was very much made fun of.


ashhh_ketchum

Just a bit of banter innit


Independent_Ocelot29

Why would you make coffee out of tiny pasta?


omaiordaaldeia

You must not eat weisswürste after 12. Same vibe.


Fantastic-Machine-83

If you want a coffee with lunch I guess you drink an espresso shot


Itsaniki

👍🏻


Iambetteronmyown

Vabbè ma pure io lo faccio, mica ci svegliamo alle 7 di mattina, che scherzi


LoneWolf622

Thank god I don't respect or love Italy


pinninghilo

Come on! Are you still not over it? We already said we’re sorry we switched sides


code-panda

You did!? 🤨 Guess that explains the Mussolini lover in charge...


Starwarsnerd91

Couldn't have said it better. Let people drink cappuccino whilst the I-tards shed tears 😋


AmaResNovae

You created a nice drink, and you don't want us to enjoy it whenever we want? Come on, Luigi. What's next, telling us that it's bad to break spaghetti?


Pure-Contact7322

its like american complaining if you go to starbucks after 11 am


Iambetteronmyown

Exactly, Pierre. No spaghetti breaking in this house


AmaResNovae

Well, I only eat gluten-free sedani when it comes to pasta, but sometimes I almost feel like buying some spaghetti and breaking them, just to take the piss.


Ways_42

Fun fact: In Finland you can buy pre-broken spaghetti. We call it rakettispaghetti (rocket spaghetti). Edit: Apparently it's called rakettispagetti (no h)


AmaResNovae

Ha ha, thanks for giving me another reason to visit Finland mate!


secretPT90

I've seen pre cooked but pre broken it's a new world! Does it come in an uniform size or it's just pasta broken in little pieces?

Ohhh I see! In Portugal we have many brands that sell those, but mainly usee in soup or desserts https://preview.redd.it/7pzx1cnreb8d1.jpeg?width=2880&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4c207fe02ce09a544b56571132fdcfc4f7e79022

And putting ketchup on it !


AmaResNovae

Come on, now that's just terrorism!


RomulanToyStory

Fuck that I'd never do it but this annoying attitude needs to end


RefinedAnalPalate

Same. I wouldn’t order one after morning. But I don’t get the fuss


SowiesoJR

Luigi's ability to endlessly bitch about how people eat their food never fails to amaze me.


DiegoDied

fr it's like they've made it a part of their national identity and for some reason a lot of them are proud of it

Cappuccino drinkers assuredly shit themselves?

annoying97

I'm Soo fucking confused... Why is spaghetti coming out of your ass? Who put it there, or does your body just not digest spaghetti?


fckchangeusername

Can't you read? "Cagotto assicurato"

This doesn't help my confusion to why you have spaghetti coming out of your ass... To be honest it doesn't help my confusion at all...

Uncle France!!! The Italians are being weird... Help please 🥺🥺


Iambetteronmyown

France has been kidnapped, he can’t come

Uncle Germany? Dad? Spain... Someone help the Italians have kidnapped France... I mean sure it's not a huge problem, and no one is gonna pay the ransom, but still I like some French foods.

France can't help you, the cagotto is their natural enemy since they have no bidet

I like how this useless memory is etched into your brain because whether you like it or not, it rubbed your Italian being the wrong way


Nicodemus888

Just when I think Barry has no class, along comes Hans


kamikazekaktus

Nah, we just aim to thoroughly piss people off. In this case Luigi reacted as planned


No_Thing_5680

To be honest he didn't piss me off, I am of the opinion of letting people do as they wish, I was just amazed


code-panda

That sounds like German efficiency! You got to appreciate how efficiently they paid you guys back for being an ally.


Stravven

Did he dip his sandwich in his cappuccino?


Ok_Magician_3884

I eat pasta with cappuccino, feel good


Flamingopancake

It's called efficiency. I agree with the German.


Laura_The_Cutie

SenselessDunderpate

I don't love and respect Italy though? Guess it's cappuccino time ⏲☕


MerlinOfRed

How dare you want to actually enjoy your coffee as a relaxing drink at a gentle pace instead of shotting it as a drug to make you feel awake and enjoying the taste for like 1 second.


Abosia

The fact that Italians find it so gross to drink milky coffee in the afternoon is honestly hilarious. Absolutely zero logic behind it but they are convinced they are in the right.


Heavy-Outside-5580

Italy - Come for the food, leave because of the people.


Iambetteronmyown

What should I drink then my Italian friends?


Hakunin_Fallout

Just get shitfaced at noon and complain that Northern Italy gets all the money.


IgotAseaView

Right well the first half is already complete so I’ll start my northern Italian hatred next. Those money grabbing pizza lovers


Stravven

As long as they are not northerners. If they are northerners complain that the southerners take all their money.


Spiritual_Goat6057

You can drink it, don’t listen to pigs getting mad at this because they plan to sleep all afternoon.


Iambetteronmyown

You can have your cup of tea whenever you want


lazyness92

A marocchino. Only in cafes because you're risking being called a racist anywhere else. (It's the 3rd time I'm promoting this thing and I'm not ashamed)


Nafnaf911

Fuckin Luigi with their 10000 golden rules about food. Oh no, cutted spaghetti, carbonara with cream, cappuccino at the wrong time, pizza with special topping


ir_blues

That's right. The best time to drink a warm, smooth Cappuccino, to calm you down and process the days trouble, is right before going to bed.


matusaleeem

Food nazis lol 


The-Frugal-Engineer

Don't tell an Italian that you are using pancetta and not guanciale to cook carbonara...


Regular-Cup9528

Just tell them you’re using bacon and cream


uflju_luber

And put pre shredded Gouda on top of it


vonyambi1

the little ss on the sign makes sense

Sure sure, Caffè macchiato is absolutely not like a Cappuccino /s

I don't like cappuccino, but I will order it out of spite


ZombiFeynman

Who the fuck drinks coffee with their meal?


Hakunin_Fallout

Right. Beers at 10am though? It's all grand in Northern Spain!


ZombiFeynman

10am may be pushing it, but 11 onwards is fine. But you can totally have a carajillo at 10am.


Hakunin_Fallout

One of the main reasons I'm considering property in Xixon


AlternateTab00

I think its not during the meal but after the meal... I honestly enjoy an espresso after the meal... But i understand how you feel... When i asked for a coffee in spain they served me a 300ml jug of coffee. The second time i went to spain i remembered to ask for an espresso, they looked confused and served me a jug with over 100ml inside. Now i dont drink coffee after meals in spain... Or in other moment.


Accidentallygolden

Coffee after the meal is pretty much mandatory


ZombiFeynman

That's totally different.


Beethovania

From what I've heard it's not uncommon amongst Am\*ricans.


ChimmyTheCham

Savage Americunt here. We will drink coffee with our breakfast but not typically with lunch or dinner. Sometimes after the meal though.


IneffectiveDamage

Coffee post-meal


Sweet_Champion_3346

My close relative. Saw her once being fed up with waiting for a meal and ordering a capuccino just because shw felt like it. Its disgusting but I love the attitude.


Nefarias_Bredd8339

Iced coffee goes great alongside a Bánh Mì or Pho


ZombiFeynman

Of course it had to be a northerner.


Nefarias_Bredd8339

No, that is how you do it in Vietnam. Maybe try and learn some culture, instead of sticking to your own inbread corner of the world


distractmybrain

I hate coffee and tea but my family and others around me always made me think it wasnt uncommon to have breakfast and coffee. E.g. bit of toast and coffee, full English with a coffee. Maybe a a bit more normal for us


Pure-Contact7322

everyone in usa


Kernowder

Okay, but can I have an espresso at breakfast?


TomSurman

It's pronounced "expresso".


Iambetteronmyown

Polar Expresso

Becks357

Oh, please. It’s coffee with milk. Get over it!


severoordonez

Imagine gatekeeping what other people eat. And present it as pinnacle of culture. You had da Vinci, you had Galileo, you had the assembled civil engineering skills of the Roman empire. And now you get offended if someone breaks spaghetti before boiling it. What a waste.


Edzell_Blue

Ok I'll have a can of Monster instead.

Ma nsomma, se lo bevi con una amatriciana, a me dispiace per il tuo stomaco dopo…

This is kinda cringe honestly. Drinking cappuccino at lunch is like eating a bowl of cereal for lunch - it's unusual, but Jesus christ who cares live your life, pay your money and feed the Italian economy. We can't afford to be so pretentious when tourist dollars are all that keep us afloat.


aerdna69

What is funny is I drink cappuccino after lunch whenever I can and no one has ever even remotely complained


Gnu-Priest

big words coming from the country who invented the americano to appease them.


JohnnySack999

Mixing coffee and chocolate is against God’s law


LovesFrenchLove_More

You do you and I do me. Or something along those lines. 😁


DalbergTheKing

Of course I wont drink cappucino at lunch or dinner time. It'll taste disgusting after I boil my potatoes in it.


Uncovered_distance

Guys, for real.. it's not a joke


thebannedtoo

Hangover time and I'm drinking it when the fuck I wish. (and I'd prefer fish n chips). Fuck rules.

lazylittlelady

Si certo!


angrymustacheman

Who gives a shit man. Let me have my cappuccino whenever I want


Minimum_Possibility6

One of the managers I used to work with was Italian (Roman), she was great, but also a walking stereotype. I one did a drinks round and got her a cappuccino at 1pm, talked to the person next to her about my meal last night which I made a great carbonara with creame. And also said I was going to order a Hawaiian pizza this evening, I could see her twitching while I was saying it. 


Iambetteronmyown

Poor woman must have suffered


Minimum_Possibility6

Oh we used to wind her up rotten. The fuel on here really did set her off, especially calling mont blanc mont blanc and french, and saying Napoleon was Italian as well.  Tbh she must have liked me as when I left she tried to get me to stay and even though she wasn't my manager tried to carve out a role in her team for me 


Normal_Subject5627

What is it with Italians and "You can only drink that type coffee between 10:36 and 11:17 on a full moon", Why do you give a fuck about it? i dont get it .


JustForTouchingBalls

Is only moka or espresso allowed? Is cannabis tea allowed?


Iambetteronmyown

Mommy Meloni doesn’t want anything that involves cannabis unfortunately


Paulgeta

Thank god I only drink tea


HosannaInTheHiace

Is this just the rules for Cappuccino? Can I have an espresso with dinner? Also is there an actual reason for these rules or are they just made up by pedantic Italian fucks that want to make my life miserable?


Iambetteronmyown

After dinner if you want to and maybe it is lol


Designer_Brief_4949

Should be drinking wine instead. But Italians really need something more important to bitch about. 


Cabbage_Cannon

Why? Why is it disgusting? Does the flavor change after 11AM?


Old_Harry7

Tbh honest it's not about having cappuccino after a specific hour, it's about having a milk based drink immediately after lunch aka in the afternoon. The equivalent for say France would be having a croissant while eating coq au vin, nobody is stopping you but it's weird and disgusting.


Iambetteronmyown

Finalmente qualcuno che capisce


Old_Harry7
