When I was younger, my father told me that spaghetti grew on trees, and that the macaroni grew around the spaghetti like some kind of wrapping. I also thought that all the tall people ate spaghetti when they were kids and that the small people ate macaroni. So I grew up eating spaghetti all the time...
