    It's not about a specific number, it's more about the meat to pasta ratio. You just look at the meat distribution through the pasta as a whole, but you don't count each individual piece.

      This guy gets it! I agree with Chris's thought process though of wanting specifics and how "I don't know" is most of the time a bullshit answer to something but it's absolutely a ratio thing

      Exactly, ask about the ratio and not the pieces of meat for the bowl. Chris is wigity wack on this.

    • @cribriformplate5409
      @cribriformplate5409 8 месяцев назад +1

      Right, because it also depends on the size of pieces as well. Sometimes the meat is finely ground into the sauce, sometimes meat balls and sausage vary in terms of the size. In that case even boiling it down to specific ratio is relative. Kind of a crazy thing to get this up in arms about lol.

    • @WeirdBrainGoo
      @WeirdBrainGoo 3 месяца назад

      I think it's weird he thinks it has to be ONE specific number. Like obviously 20 is too much, but that doesn't mean he knows 7 is the magic number. He might have a range that's acceptable, like 6-8 pieces in a bowl.
