I used to cook up a can of spaghetti for my parents and brother when I was a kid. I'd brown a pound of hamburger and then dump a can on that. Sometimes I layer on some American cheese if we had any. Somehow, back in the 60s, that was enough for a family of 4. Everybody ate small portions in those days.
Oddly enough, my wife says that canned spaghetti was a dish that her Korean step-mom used to make frequently.
