No.

I like caviar. Does that make me high-class?

No. Because I also like Doritos  :twisted:

What PP said.  Liking or disliking certain foods is not an indicator of social class.  I love steak tartare and lobster, but I also love Chicken McNuggets with sweet and sour sauce.  So sue me.  My husband loves foie gras but he's also been known to eat pork rinds and baloney salad.  Nobody cares.  Now, refusing to try new foods is a different issue entirely.  The mealtime rule at our house is, you have to try one bite.  You don't have to like it, but you do have to try it.  You've tried pesto, and you don't like it.  I've tried fennel, and I'm not a fan - I just don't care for the flavor of anise.

As far as spaghetti and meatballs go, people do eat meatballs in Italy - they're called polpette.  But when Italians emigrated to the US, the meatballs evolved. They got bigger and were served with pasta and red sauce.  That's one example of how Italian-American food is different from what you find served in Italy.  It's all wonderful, as far as I'm concerned!  I have a great recipe for spaghetti and meatballs - I may have to make it this weekend.[/quote]
