Look how young the children were when they would send them deep into the pasta mines. Back then, they didn’t even use proper ventilation. They would frequently end up with gluten lung.
Spaghetti isn't mined in the pasta mines, you moron. It grows on spaghetti trees.

First documented on film in 1957
I, too, wish to know where I can purchase a spaghetti bush.
could you genetically engineer one?
They already have! You think cheap pasta is through efficiency and child labor! It's GMO and overfertilized crap.
I remember grandpa chasing me with a switch because I left ripe pasta I couldn't reach, but man was it tasty. Not like this new plastic-y crap. Why does it stick? It used to never stick before!
I always wonder about drying food in a place full of airborne pollution, dust, etc.
Extra regional flavour
