Pasta!
Well, did you ever wonder just how many different types of pasta there are? Here is a list, and I'm sure it is far from complete. There are over 500 types, but I am just listing the ones I can remember from the top of my head. Most pastas I have never even heard of! Notice how the majority of pastas end in -i or -e, sounding like eeeeeee.
- Spaghetti, Macaroni, Linguine, Fettuccini, Vermicelli, Ditali
- Tubettini, Rotini, Fusili, Gemilli, Spaccatella, Angel Hair, Bow Ties
- Alphabet, Stars, Shells, Manicotti, Cannelloni, Lasagna, Cappelleti
