I’ve got a question: WHO’S MAKING THE SPAGHETTI??? Look at the guy opening the jar of Rago 18 seconds into the commercial. It’s a broad checker pattern that doesn’t match the one the kid is wearing. And it’s a long-sleeved shirt. It doesn’t match Dad’s in the dinner scene, either. or Mom’s. Everyone’s wearing short sleeves. Maybe it belongs to that hypothetical cheatin’ postman or pizza delivery guy. for that matter, which kid is it in the final shot that catches the jar of sauce? His green T-shirt doesn’t match anyone’s. ---

I have nothing to contribute to this discussion. In fact, I’m not even sure why I’m posting. ---

Can someone explain to me why anyone cares whether anyone else is or is not breaking spaghetti in half before cooking it? Serious question. ---

Not sure if I advocated it her or in another thread, but I was being facetious. 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ragu-the-spaghetti-sauce-for-kids-who-have-just-watched-their-parents-have-sex/630960.md?page=4)
