A lot of people get weirdly aggressive about other people "eating food wrong".

Try saying "actually, sometimes as a treat, when just cooking for myself, I quite like eating pasta with just a little salt and a little butter, or maybe a little grated cheese on it" in front of a group of people...

"YOU SHOULD PUT SAUCE ON IT"
"WHY AREN'T YOU HAVING A SAUCE"
"YOU CAN GET PRE-MADE SAUCES QUITE CHEAP, IT DOESN’T COST MUCH MORE JUST TO ADD A SAUCE"

Butter and Parmesan on pasta is a great lighter pasta dish. (Though I prefer it on something like Rotini more than spaghetti)

Had it! Love it!. You’d probably have to stab my hand from stealing some from you XD

That's just pasta bianca, a valid and well known Italian dish.

I did not know that. Thank you! It's good to have a response next time the Sauce Mafia descend upon me.

If they're salted just right, I often start a pasta meal with a few forks of nothing but pasta!
