Wouldn’t it be the other way around. The comment that spawned this entire thing was literally about what Americans in america call it. And we use different words for the two things. So this is a case of Europeans being confused that Americans call two different ways to prepare a pizza by two different names.
Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. I related a personal experience about when I learned there was a difference, but that doesn’t mean I thought it was wrong.
Just a humorous way to laugh at myself while saying “the world is bigger than you think, and words can mean different things in different places.”
Americans easily gets confused when people are using different terms and words for things than Americans are.
The point is that what you encountered wasn’t wrong, it was just different from what you were used to.
Ok, but it’s also actually incorrect to call a plain cheese pizza “margherita”. And I learned that while in Italy.
