Why would non-Italians buy cookbooks in Italian? Wouldn't they buy them in their native languages?

I think their dough is kind of thin....they do have a back crust, but the crust is pretty thin and crackly! I like the veggie special but sub the artichoke hearts for the olives.

Nope, my grocery store, I have gone to for decades, has the produce section in the MIDDLE of the store.



Is it a Wegmans? I love Wegmans. They have the produce in the middle, not perfectly centered but not on the perimeter either.

I'm sure your Italian grandmother is the standard by which all Italians should be judged. I don't think my Italian relatives would have much use for a meatballer either, but they are nice people and would not turn up their noses at anyone who used one.

I have seen a lot of regional Italian cookbooks, in Italian, sold in Italy. Someone born and brought up in the Piedmont, for instance, who married into a Tuscan family, might have use for a book to teach her how to make the Florentine style whatever that her husband would like to have. In fact, now that I think of it, I have a few of those, or had a few before my latest purge, so maybe they are sold to American tourists who happen to read Italian?

Having just chaired the bake sale from hell, I can see why things like meatballers are useful. Some people have a very difficult time keeping all their cookies about the same size, which makes them harder to plate, display and sell. I don't have that issue, but if I did, I would use a meatballer to shape and dispense cookie dough.

I have a hard time figuring out why people who think that Velveeta is food are turning up their noses at people who use gadgets to make homemade lasagna.

"Thinking about it more, the bigger question for me is parents who would send their kids to a Catholic school in part so their children don't have to "associate" with children who have divorced parents. As if they have divorce cooties or something, lol. "

Yes, that was the part that bothered me too.
