Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I've never seen an italian eat spaghetti with a spoon, but maybe it varies by region.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Seems like a common thing in North America. I've seen plenty of people use a spoon to hold the tip of their fork to spin it and ball up spaghetti (and similar noodle pasta).

I'm not even Italian, I think it's weird. Far be it for me to tell anyone how to eat though. So I just shut my mouth and eat my spaghetti, my way.

Could be, an old Italian guy showed me the spoon as the base and fork as the spinning tool. But yeah maybe it is regional...or like giving white people a fork at an asian place

It's a very Italian American thing. It's not really something you'd see in Italy.
