Cultural Experiences

I decided to be adventurous and ordered a newly invented pumpkin pizza at the local pizza place. It has pumpkin-infused cheese, Italian sausage and pumpkin seeds. Unusual but not bad.

The owner of the place / the inventor of the pumpkin pizza came out to observe my reaction. “How does it taste?” he asked. “Isn’t it true it ended up tasting exactly like Thanksgiving turkey stuffing?”

That was when I realized I never had the Thanksgiving turkey stuffing because I stuff with buckwheat and mushrooms.

The work of assimilation is never complete.
