Carbonara sauce where can i buy it?!
Answers: I dont want to make it because of lack of time the night I have this meal prepared do you know where I could buy a powder or canned sauce for it? also the brand name knorr doesnt make it anymore i do not think I live in St louis thank you
Yah - I think the carbonara part of it is bacon. You could probably just alfredo sauce from the spaghetti section of the store and add about 1/2 pound of bacon, cut to 1/4" and fried until brown.

Dont buy it, made it!:

It is way too easy to make homemade and much better than anything you would find in a package.
