I never said I wanted to go there, I just said that I lost all
interest in the place. Thanks for being obtuse and pointing out the
obvious.

They sell Rao's-branded spaghetti sauce in the
supermarket. It costs about $10 a jar, about 3 times
what a decent jar of sauce costs. So you can look
at it two ways. Either you can get the Rao's experience
at home for $10, minus the over-the-hill mobster at
the next table. Or you can figure that Rao's is like
$10 spaghetti sauce: I don't care if it's flavored with
the finest tomatoes or even high-quality heroin, no
jarred supermarket sauce is worth 10 bucks.

Posing is for post-ride coffee shops.

I'm not so sure. Looking back on his posting, he also is advising
long sleeve shirts for hot weather riding - no doubt to hide the track
marks. Maybe he blames it on a "sun allergy" like Millar.

But the supermarkets, delis, drug stores and hardware stores where it
is sold, HAVE to carry it, Otherwise their garbage doesn't get
collected, shipments arrive late with boxes fallen off the truck,
maybe even a break-in or fire could happen. Pure coincidence, but it
could happen.

The sauce is three times better than average decent supermarket
spaghetti sauce. Only virgin olive oil. You better not disrespect
that pasta sauce. You'll eat it and like it.

It's true! Just last night, I was cooking up some
spaghetti bolognese, and suddenly there was
a knock on my door. There stood three large
men in tight buttoned up suits, who told me if I valued
my sauce, I was going to have to buy Parmesan
from them on a weekly basis.
