I am not an expert in the kitchen and..., this video has made me doubt! But, "spaguetti" is pasta, isn't it?. And I am never ear talk about a crop of macaroni or other kind of modern pasta, like "pitufos" (my daugters eat them) or bows.

Hello,
When yesterday I read this practical joke in the book, I became absolutely astonished. It is very funny.

Regards,
Antonio

Yes, it is hard to believe that some years ago the British were not familiar with spaghetti. Now they eat it all the time!
