Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you… EL COMPLETO.

[Sid P]

You, sir, are a complete foodie, and one of The Pit’s greatest contributors. I love this!

Wiki has some interesting info: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completo . Yours is a “Completo Italiano”, so named because it has the red, white, and green of the Italian flag.

Yeah, the lines get blurred though when you try to compartmentalize them, but that’s the closest. A classic Italiano has the tomatoes on top. (Not that I knew that before I started asking. And, my daughter says the tomatoes should be diced more finely.) Like lots of things, it depends on who’s making it. When I started really asking Felipe (my son-in-law), the rules get vague. The answers you get in Santiago are going to be different than the ones you get in Valparaiso. Heck, the answers are going to be different in different parts of Santiago, or even in shops right next to each other! But, think of pizza here in the US. You get one thing in NYC, another in Detroit, another in Chicago… then you go to Old Forge PA and get something completely different, with pre-baked pizza shells and Monterey Jack cheese. They’re all pizza, though.

In the end, I just asked them how they’d order theirs, and asked if things like onions and cheese etc were considered normal variations.

Here’s another list. Even the compiler says that it is incomplete! You should also click through the links to Salsa Americana and Salsa Verde; they are NOT what you’d think!

When we were last in Chile, we were in the airport in Santiago (the Arturo Merino Benitez International Airport, I love saying that) and I watched a guy get a completo that I swear was the size of an American football. He looked pretty pleased with it!
