I know I am wicked (northeast euphemism for “mucka” - also used in conjunction with ‘wicked’ as in, “wicked mucka” - which can denote something very good, very cool, or very gross) pissed (not “wicked pissah”) about this shit - Also anything else, come to think about it…. Where was I? Oh yeah, having spent quite a bit of time in “Provi” as a guest of some good I-talian friends and in the company of many good, “Gumba” buds in the Labor Movement (home of LIUNA and many currently deceased or incarcerated Union Leaders), I can only imagine that they’re not a-gonna-take this shit layin down…
Does the dumb ass not realize that the bulk of the wheat in Italian pasta comes from the US and Canada. He just handed Canada a win and kicked US farmers in the balls again. Who needs natural disasters when you have Trump to destroy your overseas markets
Thanks, Mr. Peeresident. The imported brands are the only ones I can eat because everything with wheat in America is contaminated with soy, to which I am allergic.
I'm going grocery shopping today, so thanks for the heads-up! It occurs to me that this will not only affect the availability of pasta at supermarkets and specialty grocery stores, it will also affect restaurants. And if the orange porker starts targeting companies that produce ice cream, I'll have to take to the streets!
Cutting pasta out of one's diet is one way to lose weight. On the other hand, without pasta there are going to be a lot of hungry people. Pasta is relatively cheap and very filling.

It's an infamia! I think I'm using that word correctly.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for my pasta...................

Thank the gods they aren't targeting lutefisk!
We have a year's worth of pasta and two years worth of beans and lentils in our pantry. DIAF.
"the Federal Hill neighborhood of Providence, Rhode Island"
Home of Popeye's Pizza, which claims to have invented the calzone!
You can always eat well on Federal Hill.
As a self declared pasta lover it's an outrage!
Ta, Robyn. I'd forgotten about the Federal Hill pasta riots.
I never buy Barilla but would miss the first three. Fortunately, I live in a country where the Chutney Chomo doesn't control trade policy.
My younger daughter already despises trump. She’s a carbaterian and eats pasta like twice a day so this may send her over the edge.

There was NO PESTO at all at the Natural Grocer in Iowans City today. They said they tariffs were making it impossible to get. I might not make it.
I personally believe pesto is easier to make than pasta if you have a good food processor or even blender
This is true. It's not difficult to make pesto at home. But I wouldn't put it past Dumpty to declare a war on herbs.
Sad that you have a point
How about let's not tell him they exist
The herbs, I mean
From what we've seen, his diet isn't exactly vegetable-heavy

Weird since Sir is always noodling with the economy.
