How much alcohol really cooks out of your kids' Penne alla Vodka"
by Sara McGinnis posted in Life
"The alcohol cooks out!" is the exasperated cry of those who are used to making dishes such as Penne alla Vodka, but ask one of those same cooks just how much booze remains when all is said and done and they might not be so sure.
The confusion was recently brought to my attention by one fellow mom's disagreement with her sister-in-law. User matkaof4 recently shared in a Reddit post:
"Last night my sister in law and her two kids came over for dinner while her husband has been away on business. I served penne a la vodka, she was raving about it all night and finally asked what was in it, when I told her vodka she FLIPPED. Saying she couldn't believe I would give alcohol to her toddlers." The poster tried to explain she cooks with alcohol every once in a while and her kids are just fine, but her relative wouldn't have it.
The drama was far from over. Matkaof4 went on to say: "Later on she texted me a very long message about how upset she was and how when her husband gets back they'll be having a talk about calling CPS on me for 'getting my kids drunk.' My husband just laughed and said his sister is known for being overdramatic but I'm shaken up about it."
Nearly every commenter I saw replied agreed it was an overdramatic reaction, but even those who were on the original poster's side couldn't say for sure how much vodka the kids may have gotten.
I also would have assumed the alcohol would cook out, but apparently...
