      Or we’re adults who still haven’t quite figured out how to properly and appropriately wrap long spaghetti around a fork. 30+ years on in life, and I still end up dropping noodles and wearing sauce splatters when I try.

      In b4 someone comes along and says sKiLL iSsuE. Yes, it is a skill and it is an issue. It’s also why I prefer rotini, or other small pastas.

      In fact I’m starting to think I should just use chopsticks with spaghetti, as I have no problem eating ramen and lo mein that way.

        I can eat spaghetti “properly” but it’s also painfully slow. If I’m somewhere in public there’s no way in Hell I’m ordering spaghetti because I don’t want to be eating like 30+ minutes later than everyone else.

        I wouldn’t say I eat slow by any means (generally speaking) but it seems like people these days can’t wait to shovel down food fast enough so I’m already at a disadvantage from the start.

      Or they want an effortless-to-eat meal, not having to choose between getting all dirty and spending more time rolling the damn pasta on the fork than eating
