My favorite type of pasta lately is called cavatappi, which I assumed was some ancient Italian thing. Turns out it was invented by accident in 1970 and was originally named after Adriano Celentano, the dude who made Prisencolinensinainciusol. The more I learn, the less I know.

Learning the history of pasta and sauces really shines a light on how much of Italian food culture is from not Italy.
