response: Honestly not sure about that, however, have you heard how locale has different names for a type of pasta or some specific shape?
original_response: There's a lot definitely! It depends on the region where its made, with different shapes and types being popular to a specific region.
history: I just love pasta but I cant eat it right now Really? Why not? It's a staple of traditional Italian food and was first mentioned in 1154 in Sicily. it has too many carbs for a low cal diet, I think Italy where it was first eaten right? Not sure but there are alternatives, such as pastas made from rice flour. no rice or rice flour either, coconut flour or almond flour only. I wonder how many pasta dishes there are, probably too many variations to count I suppose
knowledge: In Italy the names of specific pasta shapes or types often vary with locale.
