The Long, Tasty History of Pasta

Warning: this video will make you hungry. Pasta is an amazing food. It's made of wheat, like bread, but can be stored for a long period without going bad. It's easy to cook, and it fills you up. But most important, it can carry a full dish of flavor depending on what sauce or other ingredients you combine it with. It can help a small amount of meat or soup feed an entire family. It's no wonder pasta is popular all over. We consume it in a variety of forms, from ramen to lasagna to Kraft Dinner. But where did it really come from? How was it developed? And how can we get some right now?

Weird History Food takes us through the history of pasta, as much as we know, plus the many different shapes it comes in and why they exist at all, and also the process for making pasta in a factory. Now excuse me, I have to put on some water to boil.
