What was Italian food like in the period between 1880-1915?

[Edit]

Recipe books from the period suggest that food from the later 1800's was much richer and fatter than now. For example, game featured heavily on the menu.

Nevertheless, many people in Italy were in poverty and barely survived on thin vegetable soups, with meat and eggs rationed or even saved for special occasions.
