If I added onions and peppers to my spaghetti sauce, she wouldn't eat it.  If I made separate onions and peppers to add to her spaghetti sauce, I was disrespecting her cooking.

There is no win.  Shut the berkeley up, all of you.

Somewhere out there, someone is reading this saying, "quit acting like my ex husband and telling me to shut up".

Not sure what kind of cooking controversy you are in the middle of, but perhaps cursing at others and trying to silence them is not the most effective way to resolve it.

I feel like this post is humorous because of the irony OP is clearly missing, but I'm not sure how to express it.

No irony.  

Pointless discussions are pointless discussions.  Move on, give up, or leave, but you are harming the children with your perpetual bickering, and nobody is going to win the argument.

Just be glad you can have spaghetti sauce and not spend the following day on the toilet.

 Well, there are at least two people in here who are wrong. Do you guys just dump some tomato paste over pasta?

I honestly don't know how it happens, but I married an Italian woman and she makes really good Sunday sauce. I just know she never asks me to hand her peppers.

The sauce? Damn... It's the mountain of Parmesan cheese that gets me.

That helps me. The acidity that most sauces is what tears me apart. It makes pizza a love/hate thing. I am down to frozen Jacks pizzas as being the only sauce that I don't hate myself the following day.

Green peppers are an optional thing depending on taste but I have literally never seen a spaghetti sauce that didn't have onion. That's like not having garlic in it.

In reply to bobzilla :

What about white sauce?

White sauce pizza and butternut squash sauce for pasta has helped with stomach issues my wife and I also have in eating tomato based sauces.

My neighbour is Sicilian. 

I was told that if an Italian woman invites you for dinner, she's not being nice. She's showing you that her sauce is better than yours.

Again, missing the irony in your own response. 

Isn't bickering about people bickering, equally as pointless? cheeky

I will neither confirm nor deny that this is the case.

I'd rather discuss spaghetti.

Butternut squash is the best.

Where does the board stand on mixing in non Italian cheeses on pizza?  Like that weird Mozzarella/Cheddar/American mix they use on Old Forge style pizza here in Northeast Pennsylvania, or that Provel stuff in St Louis?

So you don't have to share?  That sounds like a win.
