Let's put ice in the wine and chocolate in the hummus

Thanks for bringing scientific explanations to a joke about a lack of artisanal subtlety in a cuisine. The original statement was about over reliance on easily delicious things instead of vision and ingenuity. Not sure how differentiating between starches and fibers suddenly adds innovative herb combinations and laborious cooking techniques.
Your honor, the joke wasn’t funny and it was a good opportunity to put useful info out there.

My wife calls them "noods"(nudes). "Can you grab the pool noods? We're having sketti tonight."
Growing up, my dad would always pronounce it "pasketti", and he'd elaborate by saying "I can't pronounce spaghetti, so I have to say pasketti"

Chocolate flavored hummus is actually pretty great. Makes a great dessert dip.

I at least split it into categories like Spaghetti and Macaroni.
Which category do you place bucatini in?

Spaghetti. Once cooked and with sauce and protein most people might not even notice the difference.

Oh I definitely notice. When I try to suck up the buccatini like it's spaghetti it'll make some disguting mouth noises and I'm left with full lungs and half a mouthful of pasta dangling out of my mouth.

This plus all the different Italian names for coffee which, as far as I can tell, are mostly just describing the amount of dairy added.

And what's a Farfalle? Or is this a cheeky sex joke?
It's a race in Final Fantasy XIV.

You can put it into the macaroni category or call it Bowtie. If you wanted to give me a harder one then Lasagna would have been a good choice.
That's actually simple. Lasagne is a plane spaghetti.

I might even motion to have Lasagna classified as either a loaf or a hot dish instead of including it as a pasta at all.

But that's the Lasagne dish not the pasta you are describing?

Not only the amount of dairy.
For Italians, "caffè" is just espresso. Then you have "americano", which is similar to filter coffee even though it's usually made by adding warm water to an espresso.
Then you have "ristretto", which is a shorter espresso.

Fun fact: the original neapolitan name for spaghetti was maccheroni.

Compared to other cuisines, Italian is trash tier; not because it's not delicious, but because it just relies on cheese, fat, meat and carbs.
"Oh wow, this pasta sauce is so good" yea, it's made of cream, cheese and bacon, how was it going to taste, healthy?
Compare that to french cuisine where they put a bird inside the bladder of a livestock animal with wine and a billion native herbs, and steam it in that for 40 hours, where you actually have to have skill to make a culinary tradition.
Although Joël Robuchon can fuck off with his 50% butter 50% potato mashed patatos. No shit it tastes better than at home you prick, you might as well just put butter on a plate.
I think you're mixing up Italian cuisine with fake Italian-American cuisine, which has nothing to do with what actual Italians eat in Italy.
