Experience the world of Slim Shady through his latest culinary creation: “Mom’s Spaghetti” pasta sauce.
Eminem delighted fans by unveiling a line of pasta sauces under this quirky brand on Instagram. In the announcement video, a jar descends from the sky, shattering near a takeout container filled with spaghetti.
“From the D 2 ur kitchen 🍝 #momsspaghetti sauce is droppin 10/26 Link in bio,” he captioned the post.
Eminem ventured into the restaurant business in 2017, naming it after a famous line from his 2002 song “Lose Yourself.” Mom’s Spaghetti began as a pop-up shop and in 2021, it established a permanent location near Detroit’s Comerica Park. Now, fans from around the country can savor the restaurant’s renowned red sauce. A single jar of Mom’s Spaghetti pasta sauce is available for $13, or you can purchase two jars for $25 on momsspaghetti.com. These orders are set to ship on October 29.
“Get your sweaters ready for some tasty s’ghetti sauce!!!” exclaims the product’s description. “For the most legitimate Mom’s Spaghetti pasta, pull some pre-cooked spaghetti from the fridge and reheat in a frying pan while adding your Mom’s Spaghetti sauce … It’s ready when the noodles have a bit of a snap and the sauce is heated to taste.” “This is how you achieve that delicious leftover taste the first time around! Sprinkle on some powdered parm, and serve with some Texas toast with garlic butter for s’ghetti, just as we serve it up on Woodward Avenue in downtown Detroit.”
The sauce’s name and the restaurant were inspired by Eminem’s famous lyrics: “His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy// There’s vomit on his sweater already, mom’s spaghetti.”
The menu at Eminem’s Detroit eatery is straightforward, featuring Mom’s Spaghetti ($9), Mom’s Spaghetti with Meatballs ($12), the “S’getti Sandwich” ($11), and a choice of “pop” or water ($3).
Eminem himself graced the grand opening, interacting with fans behind the restaurant’s walk-up window. In 2020, he also made headlines by sending containers of prepared spaghetti to frontline workers at Henry Ford and DMC hospitals, as they tirelessly aided those in need during the early stages of the coronavirus crisis.
