I wonder if there is any other place in the world that considers spaghetti fast food fare. I know we do. Spaghetti is served in McDonald’s © here, as well as all the other fast food places. They come in single servings, and sometimes have hotdog, because kids love those, and they come sweet. You just order it like you would a burger, and it’ll get served in a take-away pack.

I didn’t realize that it was only done here until I went looking for spaghetti at a McDonald’s in Holland. They looked at me funny there.

Spaghetti is my ultimate favorite food, aside from steak. I have to have it in my parties, and it’s what I look for in other parties. When I go to a restaurant that serves it, there is a 60 percent chance that I will be ordering that from the menu.

I grew up loving spaghetti and though people find it weird that it is considered a fast food item here, I am quite thankful that it is.

Several years ago I had my birthday and I had no one to celebrate it with because it was a school/work day. Almost feeling depressed I got into my car and drove to the nearest fast food plaace. I went to the drive-thru window and order two servings of spaghetti, fries, and a large soft drink.

I tell you, I sat in my car in the parking lot and I ate my two servings of spaghetti, oblivious to all the people who took a look at me gobbling in front of my steering wheel. My mood got better so fast I was smiling by the time I finished my food.

I love spaghetti in all its forms and colors. And though spaghetti as the Italians made it may not have been made to be considered an item in a fast food menu, I really am glad that it is on the menu. Believe me, if they stop serving spaghetti here in the fast food chains, I’ll be first in the picket line. You can count on it.
