Garlic bread is not a thing in Italy at all. Italians eat white bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
Garlic bread is an American dish, popular among Italian Americans as a substitute as they couldn't get olive oil in the US.
Ok, but to address the jerk's "point", a carb based side for a carb based entree is not some uniquely American thing.

Pane al'aglio and bruschetta disagree with you.
Bruschetta is a completely different thing. I can't remember ever having it with butter at all.
Pane all'aglio is just Italian for "bread with garlic". Italian cook books will market it as an American dish.
You said this. It's wrong. Even if it's marketed as "American" it still is a thing in Italy.
And apparently it's good enough to import, even if they'll publicly scoff at it.
Sure, it's as Italian as a big mac and sauerkraut.
Again, that's what you said.
And you're wrong. It does exist in Italy. You're just arguing for the sake of it now.
