TheWhelk on pasta. I haven't seen TheWhelk here in a while, but I do love his cartoons when I see them.

Gnocchi: A ravioli with nothing in it.

That actually was pretty close to my reaction to the gnocchi I had the other night!

I hate orzo. It reminds me of that vile abomination Rice-A-Roni.

I believe the correct term for lasagna is "pizza cake".

Fusilli without a Seinfeld reference? Such self-control!

And it needs more Rotini, Manicotti, as well as those most un-Italian named varieties, Angel Hair, Elbows, and of course, Egg Noodles. Because my mother wasn't a good cook, but she could boil water.

I cannot hear the term "meat cake" without hearing George Carlin's voice. Could be meat, could be cake...

It feels like he came up with the risotto one and, like your lesser pastas, most of it is filler, which is fine except risotto is RICE, NOT A SHAPE, NOT A PASTA.
