I love pasta! It's a staple food in Italy and it dates back to 1154 in Sicily!
Nice! I love it too! I favorite is gnocchi made from potatoes. 
Ah yeah, you can also make pasta from rice instead of wheat
Really? I didn't know that. Do you know how many types of pasta there are?
There are about 310 different shapes of pasta
What?! That's crazy, it's so many. Is there a reason for all the different shapes? Do they all taste the same?
It all depends on the location that they were made. Some villages call a certain shape of pasta a different name than another village.
