Spaghetti Sauce

Marinara is my least favorite of all spaghetti sauces. It has no personality of its own. It's blend; it's vague; it's fuzzy. It's a sauce made out of tomatoes, a fruit that hardly has any taste in itself.

I like white sauce, strong, milk-ish, can be buttery. I'll pick it over marinara anytime of the day, nevermind that I have lactose intolerance.

Then there's pesto. Pesto is indescribably unique. It has the olive oil taste, and it has the pesto taste. It an acquired taste. Pesto has a statement to make: I am not for everyone!

Marinara is wishy-washy. You can't pinpoint what you don't like about it, nor can you pick out what you like about it. It's is the "nice guy" of speghetti sauce at best.
