- Italians never drink Cappuccino or Cafe Lattes after breakfast?
- It's unlikely to find Italians wearing short pants other than at the beach
- Most Italian women never do any excercise and yet they are an average size 4 (That's just plain unfair)
- There is no phrase for "engagement" in Italian - if you have a boyfriend or girlfriend, no matter how recently - they are called your "fiance". If you actually do get engaged to be married, they are still called your "fiance".
- You always have salad at the end of the meal, not the beginning
- Surprisingly, not too many young Italians like wine - they prefer Coca-Cola!
- Levi Jeans are STILL all the rage...
