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??!!

Do you mean spag BOL op? 😂🙈

"" French stick'. No, it's not a stick. It's a baguette."

"The word baguette comes from the Latin baculum which became baccheto (Italian) meaning staff or stick."

So it's correct to call it a stick if you speak English.

OP there's nothing better than Spag Bol with a nice Cab Sav.

You do know that it irritates Italians to hear about Spaghetti Bolognese as they don't eat Bolognese sauce with spaghetti but with tagliatelle.

We call it Skelly Botonese because when DSD was about 6 that's what she called it and it stuck :)

@empmalswa its spelled bolognese rather than bolonaise

spag bog

but never do it because

1)mince

2. it's what men do who can't cook.

Christ op, you'd hate us, in our house we deliberately mispronounce a lot of things. We have laz-AG-nee, for example.

When ds2 was little he misread pork loin as pork lion, so loin will forever be lion for us.

its spelled bolognese rather than bolonaise

I know. I was asking the poster who talked about what people say and what it makes it sound like.....

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

Bolognaise as an anglicised spelling irritates me slightly.

Not arsed about spag bol. Expect ‘bowl’ was an autocorrect!

I miread the op as spag bowel. I dont want to think what that might entail.

I have heard Spag bol ... since the 1970s

I want spag bol for tea now.

DH does spag bowl!! I didn't know it was a 'thing', nver heard anyone else say it before and it really irritates me!

Spag BOL makes sense, why bowl? Like a bowl of spag? What about the Bolognese part because you could have the spag with anything really. Spag bol bowl? Whyyyy?

'You do know that it irritates Italians to hear about Spaghetti Bolognese as they don't eat Bolognese sauce with spaghetti but with tagliatelle.'

Maybe they should stop being so pedantic. It's only pasta.

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

I know. Where's that sprung from? I hate it!

That's it I'm calling it sketty bollocks from now on

"gives me the rage" makes me rage.

Never heard 'spag bowl' - it's bol or blog in our house

Bolognaise as an anglicised spelling irritates me slightly.

Anglicised ? Frenchified, surely ? Anglicised would be "Bolognan spaghetti".

How about “Mac n cheese”
Hate it, looks like it should be pronounced “macnacheese” or “macencheese”
Very annoying

I've heard people say spag bowl and write spag bowl (instead of spag bol) and it irks me a little too even though I try not to judge people's spelling, grammar, dialect or any of that.

@ShotsFired

There is a trend for one bowl meals e.g. Whole food bowl
Think ppl have got mixed up

I’m Australian. The white Australians call it spag Bol but mispronounce Bol as bowl. I grew up wondering wtf the bowl of spag was andehy everyone was eating it.
