@italiankidooo1231 What's there to get? Pizza comes from Italy, and it sells better if you say you are Italian. Some Albanians have that general Mediterranean look, and resemble Italians. That is why they claim to be Italian, not because they suddenly hate being Albanian. Besides, who would visit an Albanian Pizzeria? I am Albanian, and if I want to try a real pizza, I will go to an Italian Pizzeria....which could probably turn out to be Albanian-owned, lol.

Very proud of your accomplishments! Some people (@italiankidooo1231) make nothing of themselves when they are presented with a silver spoon their whole lives; and it's amazing all you have done with your life considering how it all started. God bless you and your family.

@italiankidooo1231 : It's pathetic that you have so much jealousy for a successful family. No one is trying to be perp Italians... Don't be so hateful because we do it better than you probably ever could. Jealousy is an ugly disease.

[italiankidooo1231]

So many of them try to act Italians.this dude even has an Italian name. I don't get them.

[italiankidooo1231]

America=land of the free. It's crazy how Albanians cam come here and start something Italians started. There should be a law u can only be of Italian descent to own a pizziaria or Italian restaurant.

[CarmineAM]

Worked for them not very good experience.
