Bringing food from outside doesn't cause people to not want to order your food.

People bring outside food because they never wanted to buy yours in the first place.

In Italy all coast and so also beaches are public property

But ... Historically many coastal towns kind of rented the beaches to families who built empires on overcharging customers, blocking sea access and also issuing bogus rules like to external food.

Now there is an European directive to which Italy should adhere that imposes those beach concessions to be actually competition and not assigned by divine rule of birth.

Of course, the families whose main income is that, and who used to live 12 months from the income of June/July/august, do not agree.

While still illegal to block import of food and public access to the sea, in many places it happens.

Also, in many places there are publicly accessible beaches with infrastructure (showed, toilet, bar...) bit those are not the touristy spots

Banning outside food just makes me wanna leave sooner. And I'll still sneak my food in

In states like Florida and California, all of the coastal beaches are public property by law. It is illegal for a private landowner to claim part of the beach.

Beach culture in Italy is almost as toxic as Football. Fuck resorts, the legalised corruption with which they assign licenses, fuck all the people packed together on a tiny patch of sand "washed" by trash and piss-filled water, fuck highways with kilometres-long queues and overpriced petrol.

If I have to go the beach, I go to rocky beaches, where the water is clear and there are fewer people because they're all brain-dead pussies. Bonus points if it takes a hike to get there.

Otherwise I'll go to the river.
