Polished transcript:

Male Female

Every single person on this planet has his preferences in food, in cuisine, and probably in ingredients that he's consuming. But for me personally, when it comes to food, I'm not really a picky guy, and I usually don't remember what meals I had throughout my life. But the only time that I keep the memories and the taste is probably when I was in Italy and the time when I first tried pizza. And it's not only about the food; it's also about the company. Just imagine Italy, Rome, and they just made pizza that went straight out of the oven. It was pepperoni, just the usual, the classic for me now. My older brother then spent his time explaining the importance of this food for the culture of Italy and why it is made in a certain way compared to other parts of the world. It was memorable because I was eating the pizza itself, and the ingredients and the flavor made my experience there unique. I felt a spicy flavor and visualized how it may have affected Italy and its culture with its history. So it was truly a magnificent time that I will keep in my mind for a long time.
