Outrageous: The Great Carbonara Crisis

Carbonaragate...

Pseudo-carbonara has provoked outrage in Italy.

Mama mia!  What is the world coming to many Italians are wondering with virtually instant spaghetti alla carbonara popping up in France and the U.S.

I was introduced to carbonara while stationed in Italy.  It was magnifico and is still a great favorite.

If you haven't heard about The Great Carbonara Crisis some are calling Carbonaragate, take a few minutes and enjoy Adam Gopnik's eccellente report on newyorker.com that includes a video of the offending dish many Italians find outrageous: http://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/carbonara-purists-cant-stop-the-pasta-revolution?mbid=social_facebook
