No one talks like this in Italy, but since Americans are the greatest ignoramuses in history, they think they've figured it all out by looking at a bad New York copy…. Keep living on soda and peanut butter. You deserve nothing less.
I adore burrata, I was about to faint when Colman Domingo was talking about it 😅 😂 (they actually ate mozzarella, not burrata). Also, Chinotto it's my favorite carbonated soft drink so I had a hard time watching this… JUST KIDDING, I don't mind what they like or dislike about Italian food. I'm ok with everybody's taste. Take care! Ciao ☀

First of all, Nutella in the USA doesn't have the same recipe as Nutella in Europe, but above all, Nutella is an industrial product and not genuine, leaving aside what you mean by 'authentic,' the recipe varies based on the producer's needs. Mozzarella shouldn't be confused with burrata, but that's understandable when you live in a country where the only national cheese is actually a bad copy of an English cheese, cheddar, but at least that way you saw that fresh cheese is white, not yellow. As for gelato, Eatitaly has either an industrial-base production or an artisanal version, although in general there is a selection of ingredients to maintain high quality standards; the packaging isn't flashy because there's no point in paying for ink. For coffee, actually, industrial production isn't that different from artisanal production, the difference is made by whoever selects the various blends.
I did not see Kroger wiping out Eataly in the ice cream/gelato round
Am i the only one seeing chemistry between tina and coleman 😅
Americans hating American stuff is always weird to me. I love Tina Fey but her hate of her own country and “oh my, I have a small mouth because I’m I’m a lady” is annoying. Where is my Liz Lemon?
Wow, these three really know the world.
Wow they have terrible palates.
Chinotto is a citrus fruit. It's quite bitter, the soft drink made out of it is not alcoholic and kids can drink it.
Wow, the ignorance.
That’s not burrata…
To be perfectly transparent, nuttella on the cheese, with the Italian drink,ooohhhhh,forget about it followed by Gelato, oooohhhhhh🎉❤😂🎉❤😂
Man, I love Tina so much. She’s so quick and hilarious. 😂❤️
Juat watched season 2 of Four Seasons and it was sublime, just like season 1. They're funny here with each other, but you can tell which one of them is the writer even if you didn't know who they were lol…
Why do they say, 'Nootella'? It's got nuts in it… not noots.
Burrata is the tofu of the cheese world. Not a fan.
Tina Fey is an underrated Comedian (one of the greatest comedy writers too, also shout out to Paul Mooney another underappreciated Comedy Writer. At least Tina has some hardware to show for it. We know what Paul would say the reason is but we won't go there.
Never seen the show Four Seasons. They seem like they got along great as a cast. I have seen/experience Tina's work the most. Lately been keeping tabs on Doningo Coleman after seeing Michael and a handful of his prior works. I have been sleeping on him.
Tina Fey is legit funny-on-the-spot! Comedy genius
Video di MERDA…e poi quel cazzo di gesto con la mano sembrano delle MARIONETTE UBRIACHE!
…lascio perdere i giudizi sul cibo…
Ferrero also makes a frozen 'Pocket Coffee Ice Cream' (in espresso and mochaccino varieties), but they might only be available in Italy — or their Nutella ice cream, but it too seems limited to distribution in several European countries.
If you like a strong coffee candy, try Kasugai Sumiyaki Charcoal Roasted Coffee Candy, though it probably will be too strong for most. The Thai 'United Coffee Candy' is my favorite, though many prefer Kopiko.
Or if you want to try something different, try 'coffee bars', which are like chocolate bars, but made with coffee: Carré de Café (made by French chocolatier François Pralus) in four varieties: Black, Milk, Mocha (Moka Sidamo) & Organic Colombia Tolima; UK chocolate maker Solkiki's 'So Woke' (which has 1000mg of caffeine in the 56g bar); the Swiss product 'Coffola' (in several varieties); Pocket's Chocolate 'Pocket Latte'; Big Island Coffee Roasters 'Espresso Bites' and COBA.
That was delightful
I will watch anything with Tina Fey, so The Four Seasons goes on my watchlist. Fun to see her with Will Forte, I don't know him so well, but I remember Fey talking about him like a bit of a loose cannon. I love the combo.
That private select chocolate chip is my favorite, but lately they been skimping out on the chocolate chips! Love these three humans. 🤘
I'm 63 yet Will seems to have a much more sincere " old man" vibe than I do.
