A poll regarding a particular sort of food

[damont]

Something that occurred weekend before last has prompted me to ask this of the folks who read this post.

Where I grew up, it's reasonably common for green beans -- either snap beans or "Italian" flat beans -- to be served with tomato sauce. I'm wondering what others think of this dish. I may discuss the poll results later in a comment.

Green bean casserole is common in my family too -- that's the Northern European side coming out.

Green beans with tomato sauce, in its various guises, seems to be a Mediterranean-American idea. But I don't believe one finds it much in the Midwest -- not even in Chicago or Cincinnati which have heavy Italian and Greek populations respectively.
