Sauce or gravy?

[suemgross]

Spaghetti sauce!!  Gravy (to me) is when you take meat drippings and thicken it with corn starch.  Everything else is a sauce.  You wouldn't put alfredo gravy over pasta.

Here's my opinion on this question. I'm of half Italian descent and as I politely argued with my dad who's fbi (full blooded Italian) LOL! Here in America we celebrate Thanksgiving and usually top our mashed potatoes with a brown substance that we call gravy and refer to red pasta sauce as sauce. In Italy, they don't celebrate our Thanksgiving so to them, pasta sauce is gravy. I'm not trying to do away with old customs or traditions but I believe that when in America, you should uphold our traditions, this is not the old country.

sauce for spaghetti..gravy to me is something that goes over rice,potatoes or biscuits

I agree, but it is funny how in different parts of the country things are called by different names.
