Sometimes, there's nothing like a 1960s-style Italian-American meal.Pasta, sauce, meatballs/sausage, bread and butter. Wine if you like. That's the classic combo, that's how we did it. This is what "Italian" food was for the longest time. Respect.
pasta deez nutz mf
>>22244433I'm actually gonna kick your ass
>>22244442>>22244459are you kids or just men pretending to be kids
>>22244433The real Italian version of this meal would include fresh fruit, salad, and the pasta serving would be 1/10 of that huge pile of penne. Americans are so fat because they've taken icons like the Italian Sunday meal and reduced them to a huge pile of pasta with a loaf of bad bread.
>>22244433I always hated when restaurants stick the butter into the bread like that. Every restaurant I've worked at in my life keep those cases of butter opened up and on the floor where rats and insects could easily access/walk on. The bread in OP's pic should not be eaten.
>>22244466The heat of the bread melts the butter
>>22244433In the 60s the portion wouldn't be that big, fatty.
>>22244463>>22244485this does seem sized like the "dinner for two" here, I would assume this is intended to be split between people (who needs that much bread to themselves?) but everything in the photo is arranged like OP is eating it all himself
>>22244442lmao gotem
>>22244433I would improvise a meatball sub with that and throw away the pasta
>>22244433That bread looks nice, but I've gotten better-looking pasta + sauce from a hospital cafeteria.
>>22244433>GarlicStinky foreigner spice. You smell like shit and you stink up the building.t. 1960s White American
>>22244556That's not fair. Some people recognized the culinary benefits of a bit of garlic.
>>22244433So many carbs in on image, so cringe.
>>22244556Unless there's garlic in the sauce, there's no garlic in OP's image.And >>22244490 has garlic.
>>22244556I think you're confusing the 1960s with the 1920s.
