Spaghetti and meatballs: Made in Italy?
The spaghetti and meatballs is a representative recipe of the Italian-American cooking, which was exported in the USA by the Italian immigrants in search of fortune between the end of the 19th century and the first years of the 20th century.
In the USA it is naively considered the Italian dish per excellent – being second only to the beloved pizza. Being really popular in New York, it is possible to find it as canned spaghetti and meatballs to heat up in few minutes and to eat. The famous scene of Lady and the Tramp, where the protagonists are sharing it under the starry sky, validated it worldwide as an Italia dish.
