Southern Italians still eat a lot of pre-Columbian dishes, far more than the north, but they're hyper simplistic and frankly not restaurant worthy so they're fairly unknown to outsiders unless they, like, follow Italian home cooking blogs it some other fag shit like that.
They're all pasta dishes, too, lol
Things like pasta with lentils, pasta with peas, pasta with spinach sauce (or just spinach), pasta with olives and artichoke etc etc etc
Some other old ass dishes, like pasta with chickpeas, pasta with gourd or pasta with cauliflower, have been replaced by or supplemented with New World ingredients (tomatoes have drastically improved pasta with chickpeas and pasta with cauliflower while squashes are generally tastier than gourds; also, pasta with squash is now commonly made with chilli in it, another New World ingredient)

it's great if you like curries, lentils, and stews. when it comes right down to it, ethopian food is pretty approachable if you avoid the raw meat stuff. injera tastes like sourdough so that's not exotic. boomer white moms probably extra love it because it can be one of those sort of social eating experiences where you get a big platter of food and share. the meme status (see the other active ethiopian food thread, yes we have been making this same joke on /ck/ since the board was created) is probably the biggest thing preventing people like you from just fucking trying it and making a decision for yourself
