A noodle variation of what is now Spaghetti, was originally brought by Marco Polo from China back to Italy.

The foodies call that fusion cuisine. Sometimes not too bad…

Or you can call it confusion cuisine.

“Chow-ghettti?”

Back in college, we always had “spaghetti” the day after we had chilli. Guess what was used for sauce….

Yankee Doodle went to Monticello riding on a pony, stuck some dough in the machine… and out came macaroni.

“Asian Food: Now made with real Asians!”

Where I lived a few years ago, there was a Chinese restaurant next door. The owner made a great pizza, but a lousy egg roll.

He must mean the shows “Chopped” and “Iron Chef”. Some of THOSE food combos must taste like real train wrecks. Thank heavens I can’t taste them!
