Best Answer

Considering that the ancient Romans were Italian, you could say that all the foods that they ate were Italian foods. However, they did not have the foods that we, today, think of as "Italian" such as Pizza and pasta dishes with tomato sauces. The identical foods would have been the seafoods such as octopus and various shellfish.
