    Marco Pollo brought spaghetti back from China. 😏
    Actually....Marco Polo most likely never went to China. The entire journey is a myth.

    First off, the fresh versus dried pasta. Historically there was pasta maker in Italy that would door knock or you would book to make dried pasta for you. They would come to your house and you would supply the ingredients and you would pay them to turn it into pasta in bulk for cellar. So you completely dont understand the history of pasta in italy other then some ancient writing and not how the pasta culture in italy worked
    They found pasta aka lasagna type dishes is mention ancient Egypt & Babylonians text. As for the claim of china as the origin both ancient Europe and Asia have been trading and trade with each other and the ancient Chinese paddle boat was found to be first created by Babylonian. (this was after the Mongolian empire collapsed and the last son from a Chinese concubine died leaving no children. in the new Mongolian capital of Beijing (the same person china claim all the achievements of Mongolian empire as their own)
    Spaghetti and meatballs is not Italian but Greek origin and it Italian heritage comes from the trading / fishing ports/towns.
