I was always told Spaghetti is a marriage of Chinese and Italian. Marco Polo was given noodles to eat when he visited China. And added marinara from Italy. Thus spaghetti was born
@@randellgoering1014 pasta is way older then marco polo expedition. First ti make fresh pasta were the etruscans, and modern day dry pasta was invented in palermo, sicily, around 800 a.d
@@aquila9810 I honestly don't doubt you for 1 second. I just thought the marco polo story was "romantic" for lack of a better word. Cultures don't need to clash if you don't want them too.
@@randellgoering1014 The problem with your scenario is about 400 years. Marco Polo lived in the 1200s. The tomato came from the Americas and wasn't introduced to Europe until the 1600s. So your story can not be true.
What's with the all the hostility here? This is a cool scene of an ethnic family having dinner. Reminds me of my own screwed up Mexican family discussing Mexican-American history as we chow down on spaghetti and garlic bread.
+JRFrancisco20088> Did you cover that spaghetti with tomato based sauce/gravy? Well, Italy famous for its tomatoes got those tomatoes initially from the Americas. The conquistadors (in Peru) brought them to Europe. Prior to the 15th century Italy had no tomatoes. There's nothing "screwed up" about your family discussing its people's history while eating food you think is heavily associated with another culture. That's a good sign sign isn't it? The discussion moves rather well when eating what you desire rather than what you think you ought to be eating to avoid some cultural political conflict on a specific day. You gotta eat! Some foods becomes so ingrained and adoptive we hardly ever consider any possible foreign origin. On Superbowl Sunday, or on NFL draft day more American football fans pig out more on pizza and subs than we do on hotdogs. I live in Texas where what used to be called the "American pastime" baseball, sells as much tacos and nachos as dogs and burgers, yet we don't see any conflict. Perhaps the most identifiable universal American food we can identify ourselves with is the "french" fry! The fry is as American as it may be French. So, JR keep the discussion going about your heritage and don't feel guilty about what you eat on any given day. You can argue country origin of food, but it shouldn't mean you must abstain from that food on periods of discussion because it may not be indigenous to your culture. Thus I have no qualms about eating fajitas and gulping down a Modelo on July 4th to celebrate America's birthday. Bon Appetit!

It was actually Innocenzo Manzetti who first came up with the concept of the telephone back in 1844. Meucci submitted a patent for a telephone, for two years. But he let it lapse, and Bell built his working telephone. A lot of people were working on the idea of telephone communications back in the mid to late 1800s, but Bell was the first one to have a working prototype.
@@ForzzaItalliaaa let’s talk about it you dumb: italians may not invented Flying cars but Enrico Bernardi invented internal combustion engine; Alessandro Volta invented Electryc Batteries who you probably use everyday; Guglielmo Marconi invented The Radio; Amati invented The Violin and Bartolomeo Cristofori invented The Piano; Federico Faggin invented The Microchip and Alfonso Bialetti invented The Moka for making coffe:Italo Marchioni in 1903 created The first Ice Cream who surely you genious eated at least one time in your life no?

Ain't Meadow just like the younger generation? She's happy to attack her father for what he does for a living WHILE living off the benefits of it in a GLORIOUS mansion where money really doesn't matter? Like the virtue signalling youth who hashtag shit and feel they're 'changing the world' from their air conditioned condos. Let Meadow talk to Johnny Boy like that - back in the day! 'Pow! Right in the kisser! Don't get me steamed, Alice!'
@@freddybeer Meadow was only a child growing up in a completely disfunctional family that managed to see through all the bullshit her father was spouting. Tony here is trying to take the moral high ground and talk like he's the oppressed one, instead of just owning up to the fact that he's a piece of shit. That's why he hides behind the fact that some Italians did great stuff in history, because he can't use himself as an example as he knows he's a bad guy. Hence why Meadow pushes his buttons with the Cosa Nostra, as she knows he's full of shit. A smart kid if you ask me.
@@nickjito Frank Sinatra - One of the greatest musical artists of the 20th century. I’m not sure why he said it and smiled like that but I’m guessing maybe it’s because tony and carmella both liked his music. Sinatra had a lot of romantic songs.
I had to listen & re-listen to catch all those names in the last few seconds of this scene. Then I googled.

It was actually Innocenzo Manzetti who first came up with the concept of the telephone back in 1844.
Meucci submitted a patent for a telephone, for two years. But he let it lapse, and Bell built his working telephone.
A lot of people were working on the idea of telephone communications back in the mid to late 1800s, but Bell was the first one to have a working prototype.
Still Italian
@@sendmeyourlocation1145 Yeah but its not he achieved anything, sure had the idea, but not the results.
@@calumbrunton8344 exactly, Italians will tell you they invented flying cars but didn’t contribute to anything
Quasi Modo predicted all of this
@@ForzzaItalliaaa let’s talk about it you dumb: italians may not invented Flying cars but Enrico Bernardi invented internal combustion engine; Alessandro Volta invented Electryc Batteries who you probably use everyday; Guglielmo Marconi invented The Radio; Amati invented The Violin and Bartolomeo Cristofori invented The Piano; Federico Faggin invented The Microchip and Alfonso Bialetti invented The Moka for making coffe:Italo Marchioni in 1903 created The first Ice Cream who surely you genious eated at least one time in your life no? Thanks to an italian; Galileo Galilei born in Pisa invented The compass and Telescope; Leonardo Da Vinci may not invented fliyng cars but sure he progected The first tank in 1485 and invented parachute; do i have to tell you what Roman Empire invented? Or should I tell you how much Italian designer influenced the world?Just look at how Gucci or Versace or Fendi influenced American rap world, probably even you or someone of your family have a Gucci belt in your house, am American talking shit about Italia is hilarious, just the fact that was an Italian discovering America 😂😂😂
It’s cool how Carmela says Harris wasn’t that bad and by the end of the show Agent Harris is basically a part of Tony’s crew with all the information he gave him
"And of course...Francis Albert"
Jesus, i miss this show so much
Who the heck is that?
+Benny Palma seriously?... Frank Sinatra
Lol I guess I should wikipedia more often!
Wow, sorry we’re not as cultured as you.
They probably frisk him every night before he goes home. The dialogue on this show was second to none.
Just ate my plate of spaghetti with you guys thanks
Those spare ribs were my favourite character in the show, I wish they did more with them.
Greatest Show of all Time. Grew Up watching this on HBO. Rip James Gandolfini - What a Legend !
"Tony, is there helium in this room?"
"Carm, I told you, we're tryin ta avoid the copyright! Madonn'!'
Whenever there’s a crime nearby, I make sure to tell the cops I saw two Italian guys running down the alley
"Is there somthin' you want to say to me?"
I'm pretty sure she just did...
I actually think Tony liked Meadow Meadow pushing his buttons
@D'lish Donut
Wincest
Poor Tony....always secretly wondering why it’s gotta fuggin be Meadow whose by far most in step with both Tony’s thinking and bullshit and any bullshit thinking🚬🚬🚬
Ain't Meadow just like the younger generation? She's happy to attack her father for what he does for a living WHILE living off the benefits of it in a GLORIOUS mansion where money really doesn't matter? Like the virtue signalling youth who hashtag shit and feel they're 'changing the world' from their air conditioned condos. Let Meadow talk to Johnny Boy like that - back in the day! 'Pow! Right in the kisser! Don't get me steamed, Alice!'
@@freddybeer Meadow was only a child growing up in a completely disfunctional family that managed to see through all the bullshit her father was spouting. Tony here is trying to take the moral high ground and talk like he's the oppressed one, instead of just owning up to the fact that he's a piece of shit. That's why he hides behind the fact that some Italians did great stuff in history, because he can't use himself as an example as he knows he's a bad guy. Hence why Meadow pushes his buttons with the Cosa Nostra, as she knows he's full of shit. A smart kid if you ask me.
Como amo esta serie ♥
Tony’s face when he says Francis Albert so damn funny and the way he takes a bite 🤣
Who is Francis Albert and why do Tony and Carm make that face at each other?
@@nickjito Frank Sinatra - One of the greatest musical artists of the 20th century. I’m not sure why he said it and smiled like that but I’m guessing maybe it’s because tony and carmella both liked his music. Sinatra had a lot of romantic songs.
I appreciate Tony's aggressive eating. You ever want to really get your point across over dinner with someone, you follow that
Funny that Bank of America was founded by an Italian and it was originally called Bank of Italy.
i like the bit on noodles lol.
This is one of the greatest scenes ever!!
I’m in such a sopranos hole, I need a sponsor for these clips.
I’ve seen so many shine box and varsity athlete jokes in these clips, you would think I’d be sick of them and yet the good ones still make me laugh
Damn Chinese spare ribs are the bomb..
yea,,but maybe because they come from those poor dogs...they kill,eat and then sell their meat ....😡😠
@@valeriebursiaga253 stfu valerie you dumb kid
@@valeriebursiaga253How do you turn dog meat into spare ribs genius lol
Italians talking about Italians while eating Chinese food will never not be funny
Young AJ was so much more tolerable than older AJ, and that's even a stretch.
Season one of the sopranos is some of the best. These early scenes remind me of my childhood
Tony's voice is legendary ❤️
"Why would people whom eats with sticks, invent something you need a fork to eat?" Best line ever
Thats a real Italian dinner
“And of course, Francis Albert!” Sinatra is everywhere!!!
I'm always hungry after watching an episode of the Sopranos.
I wonder how come Amerigo Vespucci didn't come up in the conversation.
Or Marconi..
@@smoothvirus Or Mussolini..
Somewhere between Leif Erikson and Columbus..
@Google Needs TobeBombed inventor of fascism
Or Galileo.
I must rewatch this series
Life look so simple the first season
Gandolfini was the best Mob guy ever. RIP genius!!!!!
If you have enough patience , you can literally watch the whole series as clips on youtube.
Hahah that last line about Sinatra and Carmella's smile. Wholesome.
I love this scene. One of my favourites in the entire series.
"Who invented the shinebox?"
An Italian.
I love how Meadow makes him uneasy by bringing up who invented the mafia
_THERE IS NO MAFIA!!!!!!!!!!_ ...................................................................................................... 😡
Meadow forgot to name the Lupertazzi family.
Johnny Sack would be outraged at the blatant disrespect
You call that disrespect? What if they disrespected your proud Italian heritage and named you after a ballet costume?
She'll never be a made guy after that slip.
This clip teaches more about Italian-American history than any US history course does in middle/high school.
I had to listen & re-listen to catch all those names in the last few seconds of this scene. Then I googled. Very interesting Wikipedia article on Sacco & Vencetti (so now I know) and I am now aware that Francis Albert was referring to Frank Sinatra (which explains why Carmela & Tony shared that look...) Gosh I miss James Gandolfini and The Sopranos....
