    I’m an Italian person. You teach children scoop a few strands onto their fork then place the tines of the fork against the bowl of their spoon and twirl it up. The goal is to take a few strands, not 1/4 of the plate. If it’s served in a bowl, you use the inside of the bowl to assist you with rolling it up. Easy as pie.

      Does seem to be related to what part of Italy. My mom (also Italian) mentioned it being done using a spoon in some places, and a knife in others, then taught me to do it using just the fork. I was always surprised in my younger years when I would have to teach a friend who didn't know how.

    The jog proof anti-skip feature actually works very simply, if you had such a CD player now, it would be obvious how it works because it usually plays out on the digital display. But what Sony did, is they designed their CD players to record ahead about a minute so that what you're listening to isn't music directly from the CD but is actually what the CD player has recorded which can't skip and this is why the anti-skip feature actually needs a minute or two to activate
