Re: ok..Italians out there- the red "stuff" you put on pasta,
i had a friend in grade school who was 100% italian. i went over to her house one day for dinner and her mom made us a big bowls of pasta and asked if i wanted gravy. i was like "ummmm no thats gross. why would i put gravy on pasta. but i'll have sauce if you have some".
she never let me live that down.

Re: ok..Italians out there- the red "stuff" you put on pasta,
it is just probably in the way it was translated from the italian
I call it sauce.
I've never heard it called gravy in Italy
but I've never heard it called SAUCE either
I have to agree with gravy conjuring some gross images though. I hate that word in generally.

I'm not italian, but DH is. His grandma and the older generation in his family mostly say gravy. His mom alternates between them. He and his sisters all call is sauce.

Re: ok..Italians out there- the red "stuff" you put on pasta,
Maybe it's a regional thing? My grandparents are from different parts of Italy (born and raised there). One set said sauce (Sosa  ) the other said gravy. Meatballs and anything else you throw in the pot are "gravy meat."
