For years I've wondered why sometimes I love spaghetti, and sometimes it makes me wanna barf.

Today I solved that mystery. I tend not to make spaghetti myself because there is generally something I'd rather eat. Good spaghetti takes forever to cook, and if you rush it, it sucks.

Meatballs require a lot of effort, and the payoff is sub par. Frozen meatballs, are of course, an abomination.

So I was making spaghetti on demand, and used Paul Newman's Sockarooni sauce. And I HATED IT. And now I have the answer.

If the sauce has bell pepper in it? I'm not going to enjoy it. So Thank you Paul Newman, for teaching me what I hate, just a little bit more.

do you have a little italy near you? the one near me makes the most delicious fresh pasta and home made tomato sauce. anyways, I've never heard of socharooni sauce, it sounds disgusting.

Here's what can be done. The moment you decide you'll cook dried pasta you put the water to boil. This could take 5 to 10 min (depending on the size of the pan, the stove, etc). Meanwhile you organize the sauce, bread, cheese, etc. Then you cook the spaghetti. Another 7-10 min? During this time you set the table, wash the dishes you've used so far AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING: you open and drink wine or beer or vermouth or etc.  ;D
