(click on image to view larger image)When macaroni and fish heads are on
the menu, one must take great care in
choosing the appropriate wine.
As the palate is likely in a state of
terrible confusion, an expensive bottle
would only cause further shock.
In such a case I strongly recommend
that the price of the wine not exceed
the total wholesale value of the meal.

I have never been much of a wine connoisseur, but I do recall the two fool proof rules for wine purchasing from my university days. 1. Largest bottle, 2. lowest price. The favorite for special occasions was a tall green bottle with RED WINE in bold black letters stenciled on a plain white label. This became known as Red Wine, red wine and was the perfect complement to any massive cauldron of spaghetti.
