CD I'm sure was only having a little fun, we've all made bolognaise with spaghetti and there's nothing wrong with that unless your serving it in Bologna.Thanks Captain Nonna

I spelled it that was as well, which normally I don't, but both of us are French trained so it was bound to happen.Well there's also the fact that bolognaise is the French spelling, with bolognese being Italian, so does the pasta really matter?
lol.

Even the most Italian of Italian restaurants spell it this way in Australia. But, you know, since this is a cooking forum, I’m not really focused on winning the spelling bee.

Australia uses British English, and the Brits change the names of everything to whatever they want it to be (example: fillet, chilli).

That "comedian" was wrong about three out of four of his "jokes."
Pavement is a material that both streets and sidewalks are made with (and parking lots). Racquetball and Squash are not the same sport... different courts and racquets, balls and rules. We Americans use both Eyeglasses and Glasses, more often glasses.

I'm sorry - how long has Britian been around compared to this place? The only country that changes anything to suit itself is this place ...
I have to agree. I saw that bit before and it annoyed me something fierce.That "comedian" was wrong about three out of four of his "jokes."

It didn't really annoy me, it just wasn't well thought out comedy. We Americans provide a lot of material for comedians, but you have to put in a little effort.

Really? Um, let's remember bolognese is Italian, not French (bolognaise).
I seriously doubt there is any country/language in the world that hasn't changed the spelling/pronunciation of a word to conform to their language/way of speaking.
