    Also when you talk about niche and jargon stuff like the special pastas can you put photos up of what they look like too

    As a Vietnamese person, I get giddy and appreciate that Josh mentions our food more than any other non-Viet person I follow.

  7. Tyr

    Caller doesn't like things so people shouldn't have variety and healthy options?

  8. Care Bear

    I’ve always thought of pasta as like a dish category with noodles in it 😅 noodles are any type of noodle like penne, linguine, spaghetti noodle, etc. and pasta is any noodle dish like lasagna, ravioli, speghetti!

    43:05 Cran comes from kraan which means crane, and it's still used as crane. Cranberry is called crane berry in several languages. Cranes like them.

    My family make Hungarian nokedli with csirke paprikash, and those are considered dumplings, but in my mind, they are large egg noodles. All that really matters is does it taste good and make you feel good.

    Josh called the chao mein torta "cross pollination," missing the chance to call it "cross polinASIAN."

    I make Chicken & Dumplings by boiling Bisquik dough on the top of my soup. My mother-in-law made it with thick noodle-type “dumplings” that she boiled in her soup, which I always found heavy and slimy!
    (She once also asked me if I put mangoes in my spaghetti sauce! She finally explained that in their part of Ohio their best Bell Peppers were grown by a farmer named MANGO, and his name was on the shipping boxes!)

    The black label Velentina's is a great base for wing sauce. You start with that, then you cut it with butter to your desired heat level. (and add whatever other spices/herbs/etc you want. I like a hot sweet combo, so little brown sugar, little honey, straight up hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, etc)

    OMG the fact that Nicole doesn't know what Oberlin is, let alone that stupid story about the cafeteria serving banh mi, is so refreshing. So much online culture war nonsense originates at Oberlin, and it's nice to know that there are normal people who don't get dragged in to that crap.

  17. Dethane

    I've always thought of pasta as the blanket term where noodles specifically refers to stuff like spagetti, ramen, lo mean, soba, papardel. Long and noodley. That's why it's called a pool noodle, or those wavy "noodle" guys at car dealerships.

    Where as pasta refers to all of it, including gnocchi, rigatoni, and macaroni, which are not noodles, they are pasta, or macaroni.

    I would also never consider a dumpling to be pasta, whereas ravioli is.

    Basically, in my opinion, Pasta is the dough, noodle, macaroni, gnocchi are the form by which the dough is shaped/prepared.

    Final edit: the word Pasta literally means Dough. I'M RIGHT S*CK IT JOSH.

    Okay y’all not cool to use someone’s pets death as an intro… have some sensitivity for them please

  22. Tara kopecki

    I will only get a shake and curly fries at arby's because every single time I had a sandwich the meat was slimy like snotty slimy and that's completely turned me off from it

  24. La Vie est Un Songe

    “Gomiti” in Italian simply means “elbows”. You see pasta named after objects or body parts: “Orecchiette” or “ears”, “Farfalle” meaning “Butterfly”, etc.

  29. Lapinouple

    vietnames (or south asian) shrimp crackers are an innovation and made me realise we can make crackers out of anything

  31. Delicate Flower

    I'm sorry, but yellow mustard is great on more than hot dogs and hamburgers. It's great on a cheese sandwich with mayo, spinach and tomatoes and salt and pepper and garlic powder, especially on fresh porridge brown bread (the Maritimes oats and molasses variety). Yum!

  37. Emily Campbell-Doan

    as a vietnamese person, i am really pleased about how much josh remembers/knows about vietnamese food language <3 feeling represented, after so long of hearing banh mi bowl when people are eating bun, this makes me happy

  39. MagnumExpress

    why is everyone hating on burger king. their fries are top tier, their burgers far superior to mcdonalds. that caller is dead wrong.

  41. Merp G

    All noodles are pasta but not all pasta are noodles. Noodle dishes are different from pasta dishes

  42. Gr B

    We’re Dominican and yea the Spaghetti on the beach is very real and special. Nichole hit it on the head, it’s the carbs. Also it’s easy and inexpensive to make on a larger scale. Go early while it’s still low tide by the time it’s lunch that’s Spaghetti hits different. Ugh what time. Such great memories.
