It’s quaint how the rest of the country is catching up to the meatball craze. In Kansas City, we’ve got a meatball truck (The Magical Meatball Tour), a whole host of meatball grinders (Grinders and Cascone’s having champions around the city) and one meatball that should be an eating challenge (Garozzo’s), among the dozens of rounded spheres that grace menus around the city.

NPR suggested on Sunday that meatballs are a “happy food in hard times.” With winter setting in, do you find comfort in a plate of meatballs or a particular restaurant’s sub?
