David - My Sicilian mother-in-law would scream the house down at cannoli being described as Italian - they originate from Palermo, Sicily and you can't imagine how much that matters unless you live here in Chicago.

I guess you had some of the sweet ones with vanilla custard and cream. My mother-in-law makes me a savoury version with ricotta, goats cheese, parsley, basil, tomato and olive. They taste fantastic.......
