A slur used against people of Italian descent. “The use of the word Mozzarella as an ethnic slur... is a regionalism," said Mr Tamburri, who is a third-generation Italian American. "It's definitely something more local than it is national."
Kevin: Mozzarella!
Vinny: That is offensive, pleasedon’t use that word again.
Popular recurring meme in the italian MasterChef community, born after a dish with Mozzarella on it was named this way.
Surprisingly, the dish wasn't well received by the judges who expelled the amateur chef from the kitchen.
Cristina, tu ci hai presentato una mozzarella catturata dalla dolcezza dello scampo... Un bel titolo, molto creativo... ma sul gusto non ci siamo.
