Italian Food is a Ripoff!

Cost of Box of pasta: $.88 cents

Cost of Average Italian Pasta Dish at Nice Restaurant: $20



Therefore, you are essentially paying about $19 for tomato sauce and some grated cheese. Now I’m not a huge pasta fan, so that is part of the equation, but I can see spending that kind of money on a steak, or fish, or interesting dish, but not on a plate that should cost all of $2 and would taste probably just as good if it came out of your microwave!
