Some guy REALLY didn’t know how much spaghetti to make for four people.

I swear officer, it looked like an appropriate amount before I started boiling it.

They misread and made four people of spaghetti.

How do we know it isn't a naturally growing pile of pasta?

Unless it's invasive it's pretty unlikely, pasta grows on trees in Switzerland

Because it wasn't cooked. Natural pasta is always in a cooked state, because it hasn't been dried out yet in drying ovens.

Our Father, who art in saucepans,
hallowed be thy name;
thy spaghetti come;
thy will be done;
on earth as it is in New Jersey.
Give us this day our garlic bread.
And forgive us our passatas,
as we forgive those who masala against us.
And lead us not into rice tasting;
but deliver us from weevils.
For thine is the pasta,
the meatballs, and the gravy
for ever and ever.
Ramen.

But at what cost? Specifically, how much marinara and parmesan?
Kolanaki@pawb.social · 13 pts · 1y
Nobody dumped it. It's just growing naturally there. You didn't know spaghetti just grows out of the ground and needs to be harvested?
Monzcarro@feddit.uk · 1 pts · 1y
That's incorrect; it grows on trees:

Then was it fresh? That spaghet is noodly.
I guess it also might have rained enough to relax the strands.

They went and "cleaned" it up? It's biodegradable, they probably put it in a landfill where it's doesn't benefit anything. They could have just left it and it would have been gone in a few weeks.
snail_hunter@programming.dev · 6 pts · 1y
Being biodegradable doesn't mean that it belongs in that environment. This could have messed with the native plants and animals in a bad way. The landfill isn't a great option but it is possible that it was industrially composted.
