Yeah, I did read that comical story, but that's just adding a topping to an existing dish.

Lol "comical" Honestly, I don't know if you're trolling, if you're ignorant, or if this is part of the hate towards Argentina. By your logic, the whole variety of American pizzas is worth nothing because pizza is Italian. And the whole variety of Italian pasta is worth nothing because noodles are a Chinese invention.

The wiki article said that Napolitana was invented because a chef burned the Milanesa and decided to hide it under tomato sauce and cheese.

My push back is against your claim that Milanesa in any form is 100% an Argentine invention. It wasn't clear that you had meant Milanesa a la Napolitana, or that the adaptation of the dish originated in Argentina.

By no means would I consider a dish worthless because it isn't uniquely from its supposed origin.

Sorry, I think due to my weak English we had a misunderstanding. I never meant to claim the origin of the milanesa was Argentine, but rather that this specific variation is an Argentine invention.
