Also grew up outside of Pittsburgh and very similar for the first half. My parents were into 90's style health foods, so no sugary cereal or steak-ums except at friends' houses. But lots of pierogie, haluski, stuffed cabbages, kielbasi, chipped ham barbeque (at grandma's), pork and sauerkraut, corned beef and cabbage. Plus tons of Americanized Italian food at restaurants. Every restaurant menu had wedding soup and a bunch of pasta with red sauce options.[/quote]
