maybe those slumming it in the food service industry can help me with this. Why are pasta dishes at pizza places or italian resteraunts so pricey when pasta is one of the cheapest things to make?

I dunno. Perhaps because you have to pay some guy to stand there and mix it. The pizza just gets popped into the oven to cook and it doesn't take as long.

because they can
you're paying for the convenience of eating it out, rather than boiling the stupid water in your own kitchen :thumbs-up:
it should be free, like chinese food rice

pasta and sauce are cheap themselves
but when making ziti or lasagna you have a lot of prep work and cooking time
between boiling and the baking you're on the stove for almost 2 hours
so yer getting charged for gas
you're also using ricotta which isn't a cheap ingredient
thatz all i got

its expensive because they know its what people order the most.
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.
