        There’s two options here 1 I have met a fellow Italian 2 you are a master chef (I don’t believe anybody else outside Italy could match the right pasta with the right sauce )

          Consider me an honorary Italian: I love the food/drinks/clothing, I have many Italian friends and my partner is half-Italian.

          If anything, I’m even more fussy with the sauce/pasta combinations than my partner (wine/food pairings as well).

          what, you don’t eat spaghetti with every meal? there is a culture, and sometimes even a practical reason, for certain culinary traditions? Lasagna is a meat dish instead of a pasta dish?

            Nice so … let this be constructive for both ends … Yeah we eat pasta really often like really often most of us at least once a day if not twice but we make it like 200 times more healthy than (as I heard) u probably did for instance we don’t use ketchup on the pasta we use tomato sauce and there’s so much difference it scientifically proved one Italian out of two will have a stroke discovering how you do it … 😉 We usually eat around 80grams (yeah yeah go have fun doing the conversion ) of pasta plus some meat and veggies… And that’s brings me straight to the point how the heck can u fill a dinner without some kind of pasta … What did u eat? Meat and meat ? 🤷 About your second question I will skip it u probably don’t really care and I will talk for like ages about stuff I somehow know because it’s instinctive that objectively aren’t so obvious… Aaaaand no lasagna would probably still be considered a pasta disch yes it has some meet but it doesn’t metter … Spaghetti con le polpettine (meatball spaghetti) also have meat but they remain pasta plus somewhere in remote regions of Italy we call the lasagna pasta al forno witch means oven baked pasta

              you falsely assume I am America, also while pasta al forno is close to Lasagna, it’s not really the same thing (who would have thunk that different regions of Italy have different food cultures)

                My bad I shoot for the highest probably optionand I missed … Yeah we gave the pasta al forno name to the lasagna and call that dish you probably refer as pasta pasticciata…

              • Rice
              • Potatoes
              • Bread

              There are so many carbs that are not pasta…
