Nutella is usually eaten on bread, which is made from wheat.

Pasta is made from wheat.

What is the issue here?

According to the cube rule of food, pasta is a type of nachos. I have no idea how this is helpful though.

My own 2 cents is that something like string theory is at play here... the dimensionality of the sandwich is all wrapped up in what appears to be a 1-dimensional carbohydrate noodle, but if you could zoom in with a crazy powerful electronic microscope, theoretically the pasta might actually look like a stupendously long sub sandwich.

It's all a matter of perspective.

My personal rule is "carbohydrate bases are mostly interchangeable".

If a topping works on bread/toast, it also works on a pizza base, Yorkshire pudding, noodles, chips (fries), rice, pasta, pancake etc

For example - tomato sauce, mozzarella, basil and pepperoni works on a pizza. I can confirm it is still delicious on toast, pasta, rice, Yorkshire Pudding, chips.

Controversially, this means sweet pancake toppings should also work on pizza bases or noodles.

Therefore this would mean that Nutella on pasta is probably pretty nice.

Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.

Pizza/pasta with chocolate sauce, apples, bacon, and fresh bananas (replacing fresh basil)?

[–] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

The toppings should still follow normal food rules, so maybe not so much the bacon, unless sweet bacon is a thing that exists? But otherwise, yeah - no reason why not :)

Back to the bowels of hell with thee, demon!

Describing my heritage is not answering the question.

So, I'll ask again:

What is the issue here?

Now you're thinking!

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 4 points 11 months ago (3 children)

C'mere, I'm gonna give you a bowl of fresh picked wheat mixed in with Nutella

[–] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You kid, but I'd you boil it like pasta, it makes a good side dish.

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

Boiled grains with sweetening added is pretty much just rice pudding. No reason why this shouldn't work with wheat

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I wonder if algorithms are spying on me here because I just ate a jar of Nutella today.

I didn't even see the pasta. I think I'd prefer the plate of Nutella.

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Agreed. TBH this would probably taste pretty good as long as you don’t salt the pasta when cooking it.

Dessert spaghetti :)

[–] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago

Exactly. I don't see a problem either. Heck I'd probably do a peanut butter pasta with strawberry jam topping.

That’s got to be against the Geneva Convention.

[–] theotherone@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Idk, man. With the right pasta, like one laced with marzipan; I feel like I might be able to connect with some. Maybe soba

[–] GreenPlasticSushiGrass@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You are either a genius or quite mad.

This is a popular theist argument. “What is to stop people from eating pasta with chocolate spread if God does not exist and Bible/Qur'an/my Facebook feed/Torah is wrong?”

[–] carnimoss@lemmings.world 8 points 11 months ago

That's it I'm converting

And I eat it all and mentally masturbate over what is the most just and righteous course of action by producing body doubles and multiple personalities to experience a simulation of the current circumstances or events occurring

"And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (Matt. 27:46, KJV)

I was scrolling a bit fast, and thought to myself “Oh, Jajangmyeon“. Then I looked again and that’s when I saw the murder victim, officer.

Gotta grate some icecream on top

Dippin Dots ?

[–] GreenPlasticSushiGrass@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago

You were so preoccupied with whether or not you could, that you didn't stop to think if you should.

[–] kpw@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Jesus, can you put an NSFW tag on this one?

Ok hear me out, that'd actually go hard on pancake spaghetti tho

[–] TheRtRevKaiser@sh.itjust.works 9 points 11 months ago (2 children)
[–] PhlubbaDubba@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

You make pancake batter and then spread it out specifically in a long string in the pan, however many times it takes to cook up the whole batch of batter this way, then take the back and forth strands of pancake and just break them up a bit,

Voila, now you can eat pancakes like spaghetti

I was sure that Buddy had done this, in "Elf", but I looked it up and that had been maple syrup. This looks even better.

[–] Pulptastic@midwest.social 4 points 11 months ago

I mean, if I consent to eating that what's the problem?

[–] praise_idleness@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I mean is it any different than chocolate bread?

okay but if the mere thought of eating that makes me want to vomit, and actually eating it WOULD make me vomit, why would anyone do that to themselves? Morality has nothing to do with texture and taste.

[–] Neato@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

Ordinary Sausage is out there going way further with pasta and steak.
