(n.) a mindset affecting young or inexperienced cooks, causing them to believe dumping pesto onto pasta is the only way to make a dinner.

Generally college-aged males. Sufferers tend to believe they are stellar cooks who can transport any guest that comes for dinner directly to Northwest Italy. In rare cases, develop "manifestos" about how pesto will unite nations and solve poverty.

No cure.
