Not so long ago, Italian food was regarded as a poor man's gruel - little more than pizza, macaroni with sauce, and red wines in a box. Here, John Mariani shows how the Italian immigrants to America created, throughperseverance and sheer necessity, an Italian-American food culture, and how it became a global obsession.
