Pasta Sauce That Rocks

Presented without commentary... just because. Or, buy online.

Wanna bet it's watered down, sacharine sweet, & ultimately bland?

Y'know... just like his music since 1989?

Very cheesy.

I see a lawsuit coming...

Brian,

Why do you see a lawsuit coming? Jon Bon Jovi's dad owns this company!

That was a good one, Ace. Lemme try:

Personally, I prefer Sambora's Vodka sauce. It has a kick to it.

Nice one, Him !

Anything tasty from the BonJovi camp moved on the moment Richie packed up his backstage porta-bar, picked up his guitar case & bailed out.

having grown up with a 100% off-the-boat Italian, catholic, overbearing, overprotective family (ya think)...it's called sauce, not gravy. And if you disagree, I'll unleash my mother on you!

Gotta agree with Ace on that one as well.

Not to pick a fight with an Italian (Ah, who really cares? We can't fight our way out of a paper bag!), but gravy is an East Coast thing . . . perfectly fine regional slang. Same goes for all the varied pronunciations of different dishes and meats (as it does in the Mother Country). But you knew that Fletch, right?

Since I am still in a humorous mood . . .

Q: Why does the new Italian Navy have glass-bottomed boats?
A: So they can see the old Italian Navy!

Tip your waitress.

Haha!!, Ace. Good one, as usual.

This could be the greatest jarred "gravy" on the planet (isn't that an oxymoron?) but you'd never know it from this commercial. Even the label sucks.

But if the stuff is decent, I would imagine a portion of the profits, if not all, go to Bon Jovi's various causes.

No matter what I think of Bon Jovi beyond his Desmond Child penned trilogy of hits, I do admire his charitable initiatives.

One sticking point -- I wish the stuff was Organic, not just because that's better for you, but it would fall for in line with his sustainable food programs, etc.

And another thing... I know someone from his family and she always said he's loyal to a fault, so you really gotta wonder what went on with Sambora after all these years. You can say it's all about the money but ya just gotta wonder if there's something more to it than that, considering Sambora's recent issues and legal tassels.

HIM: WTF??? I agree with MB's post more than yours??? ok, the appocolypse must be happening soon. grab your oragano...

OH, and HIM, I once (as a 11yo squirt and not knowing any better) asked my nonna what mafia family we belonged to and I was "taught" the difference between east coast Italians (Sopranos, Bon Jovi, etc...) and genuine italian immigrants.

Hey y'all, I've had the original sauce and its bland as all hell (yes much like BJ's music in the past 2 decades). Not sure if any of you guys(gals) listen to opie and Anthony in the a.m. but they plug sunday gravy and let me tell ya........its out of this world! do yourself a favor and give it a shot (it's far from cheap) and buy a bottle.......... last BJ song I've enjoyed was "its my life."

Oh no, Fletch, I think we are starting some sort of East Coast/West Coast turf war. I will simply surrender and get back to writing things you can agree with! Besides, Sicilians corner the market on mafia-related activities.

Metalboy!, it has to go deeper than any of them have let on, probably past substance abuse and towards financial issues. That is just my guess. One question though: are legal tassels similar to the ones on mortarboards at graduation? I'd like to pick some up.
October 20, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterHim
no war him. not at all. I was actually worried a bit about my post, b/c I didn't want people to think that I disagree with MB. actually, I agree with MB a lot- more agree than disagree actually. but, I just think that you have "it" going on MUCH more than MB can even IMAGINE! JMHO.
October 20, 2013 | Unregistered Commenterfletch
No, HIM. They are similar to the "tassels" on the Ferragamo loafers worn by the Jersey boys who bankroll Bon Jovi AND his "gravy".

Jon often says, "we're the rock n roll mafia." If he only understood his own criminality.

As he sings: put up or shut up
