Macaroni

S03 E06 • Tuesday, Sep 13, 2005 • Sep 13 • 35m

What is the difference between macaroni and spaghetti? Almost nothing in the Netherlands. The shape of course, but little else. The Inspection Service goes to Italy to find the real macaroni and they succeed. Our macaroni turns out not to be good macaroni and tastes like cardboard. Real macaroni also has a hole, but it certainly doesn't have to be in the shape of an elbow. Of course, spaghetti doesn't have that hole. An extremely tasty episode, with the answer to the question that has always bothered you: why does a fork have four prongs?
