I JUST learned literally ONE minute ago that Celebrity Cook Emeril Lagasse is Portuguese and NOT Italian! 💡 For about 20 years I honestly thought Emeril was Italian. 🤔💡 I also found out that Emeril is the third in his family to be called Emeril and he has a Son named Emeril who is the fourth Emeril. He also has a Daughter named Meril(Emeril without the E) 💡🤔

He's from Fall River, MA and is well known around these parts. Fall River has a large Portuguese expat population.

You learn something knew every day. 💡 Thank you for teaching me a new fact. 💡😀 It's his name that made me think he was Italian. Emeril Lagasse sounds straight up Italian to me. 💡🤔

His Daddy is French Canadian. I am Italian on both sides of my family-all 8 great-grandparents are Italian immigrants. "Emeril Lagasse" sounds noting like Italian to me!

Have you never heard of Emerilco Vespucci? My town on Long Island had a small Portuguese population, and I never knew one named Emeril. I don't think it is a common name. There were no boys born in 2023 who were given the name at birth.
The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction is supposed to make sense.

That's because Emeril is a French name. Emerico certainly sounds Italian, and I've never known anyone named Emerilco. Vespucci, of course, is an Italian name!
