Spaghetti for 100 people!
Spaghetti for 100..You will need 10 pounds thin spaghetti.
If you are making a nice sauce to go with this, you will also need about 6 pounds  ground beef, and 20 # 2 cans of tomatoes and 12 6 ounce cans of tomato paste.  Seasoning as desired onions, green peppers, garlic, salt,sugar, pepper, and cheese.  If you need to cook large amounts of spaghetti in large pots and need to keep the
food from sticking to the pots, here is a tip. Bring the spaghetti and water to a full boil,  then tightly cover with lid. Turn off the heat, but keep the pot on the hot burner. Let stand about 15 minutes or so. Pasta should finish cooking without the burner on and will not stick.

Finding containers to store food, finding lids for each container and rearranging the refrigerator are tedious tasks, taking up time that could be better spent reflecting on the night's festivities.  Make Food Storage and Sharing a Snap!
