YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Italy is raising a glass and saying "salute" after becoming the first country in history to have an entire cuisine added to UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity list.

Rather than a single recipe or tradition, the United Nations body voted to add Italian cuisine as a whole to the list of Intangible Cultural Heritage on Wednesday.
