Loved your pasta comment!
You comment made me think. Are nice noodles or egg noodles not pasta, or are they their own separate categories (noodles, dutch noodles, asian noodles)? Is pasta exclusively Italian. When I have time, I'll look it up in my Barrons's Food Lover's Companion. Welcome to Foodie.

You aren't a cataloger by chance, are you? I'm a library science student and your classification comment sounded like something a cataloger would say :).


 * Nah. But I'm just very compartmentalized, mentally.  For every thing a label and a label for every thing!  Now that I think of it, I probably should have considered library science as a career.  Then again, they might have kicked me out when I tried to re-engineer the Dewey Decimal system...  Thanks for the welcome, I don't know how much I'll be contributing, but I'll poke my nose in every now and then, probably.  As it turns out, it is actually possible to have too many hobbies. - Hoogamagoo 18:41, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
