“Fun fact * Spaghetti & meatballs is NOT an Italian dish. Arguably one of the most famous “Italian” dishes in the world, I’m sure most of you reading will have had spaghetti and meatballs at least once in your life. Unfortunately, it is not an authentic Italian dish. In fact, you’ll likely not find very many pasta dishes topped with meat, this is usually reserved for dishes cooked “al forno”. While we’re on the subject of meat and pasta, chicken is something you’ll never see atop pasta in Italy, it’s not a very popular meat in general.”
