To shout FFS it’s bolognese!!!

There seems to be a trend for people calling spaghetti bolognese “spag bowl”......gives me the rage

AIBU?!

What phrases piss you off??!!

What about 'spag bol'?

Is that better?

I always thought it was spag bol

If it's a trend (spag bol not bowl) then it's a long one as I grew up calling it Spag Bol.

Spag bol, not bowl. I know someone who calls it ‘sketty bollocks’, as do her (young) children 🙄

I have genuinely never seen spag bowl in my life, spag bol, yes I might jot it on the list when I'm meal planning. Would never say it though

I know..I can't stand it.
Thankfully I don't know anyone in real life who says it, I only ever see it written on here but it sets my teeth on edge

I say spag bog

Urgh, spag bol is just as bad tbh!

Tagliatelle pasta works much better with a ragu sauce than spaghetti and is what you'd be served in Bologna.

HTH

We've always called it spag bog. Just rolls off the tongue easier.

Life is too short for all those extra syllables.

I feel the same about 'mac and cheese' OP I know it's silly to get so irritated but...argh!

It’s ragu actually

I’ve always thought bowl was an autocorrect for Bol. I write bologs on the Tupperware when I freeze leftovers just because it makes me giggle

What really pisses me off is people called it Bolonaise - makes it sound like some kind of French dressing.

Op is your objection to 'spag bowl' rather than 'spag bol'? If so YANBU.

Never heard anyone say spag bowl, bol as a shortening for bolognese, but never bowl

'French stick'. No, it's not a stick. It's a baguette. Oh and the word 'fag' - ugh.

What really pisses me off is people called it Bolonaise

That's literally the only way I have ever heard it pronounced! What are we supposed to be saying?

I sent DP a text with autocorrect's "help" regarding "spat bog" for dinner a few weeks ago and it's stuck.

No bolognese in this camp. We eat spat bog now.

I have never seen / heard Spag bowl but definitely have read spag bol

I hate the the word spag bol.

Saying "Spag Bol" is surely better than some godawful fake Italian accent?

"Zeee spaaaa-gettteeeee bol-og-nyesiiiii ees oon zeee tay-byle!"

I call it bollock knees. because i only cook it when cba to cook anything else

I’m also team ragù

I have never heard spag bowl?!

It’s long been called spag bol though!
