The Old-School Italian Dinner That's Slowly Disappearing From Tables
There's no denying that many of the dishes that once commonly graced the plates of American tables a generation or two ago have fallen out of favor in modern cuisine, including some once-popular comfort foods no one eats anymore . This may be due to changing tastes or preferred cooking methods, health concerns, or, occasionally, factors that have little to do with the nature of the meal itself and more with how it came to be. The latter situation is primarily what's behind the disappearance of one classic Italian entree: veal Parmesan.
Unlike chicken or pork, it's not immediately apparent to some diners exactly what veal is. Unfortunately, when many discover the truth, they don't like what they find.
