Show Notes
Today, “Made in Italy” is synonymous with quality—but it didn’t always mean that.
In this short episode, I explore the origins of the term “Made in Italy,” how it evolved from a simple country-of-origin label into a global symbol of excellence, and what it truly represents today—especially in the world of food. I also explain why the phrase is always used in English, even in Italy, and why understanding its meaning matters in the fight against Italian Sounding.
A brief reflection on history, culture, and authenticity.
