a box of ziti

Definition

Slang for one thousand dollars, typically used in Italian-American communities or contexts involving discreet transactions. The culinary metaphor provides plausible deniability—after all, you're just talking about pasta. It's The Sopranos meeting your local deli in linguistic form.

Example Usage

The used car guy wants a box of ziti for that '98 Civic—no way it's worth that much.
