      I almost thought about that but I decided to just stop and not think about it.

      Given such a continuous path through your digestive system, and a noodle long enough… imagine sharing a bowl of spaghetti with your signficiant other à la "Lady and the Tramp”.

      In theory you could floss yourself and your partner with a single noodle. Just hold one end in your hand, and have her hold the other and go back and forth.

      I recently found out about Yard Long Beans… a green bean 3 feet long? Blew my mind, or whatever was left of it.

      Huh, so I will go to the gigantic Chinese grocery store near my house and inquire about this. Long noodle : Propserity

              the canned ones? Or your mom made a weird casserole? (Hot Dish sorry, if you’re in Minnesota). It’s so different. I haven;’ tried the 3 foot long beans yet, but regular green bean cooked fresh - it’;s really diferent! The canned ones are mushy and weird. They’re like, okays! But REAL green bean is pretty good. They can be toothy. They can be chewy. They can be… anything you want.

                  boil them longer! tastes like water and bean fiber, which tastes like uh… anti-bean. Negates all bean.

        Despite the common name of “yardlong”, the pods are actually only about half a yard long, so the subspecies name sesquipedalis (one-and-a-half-foot-long; 1.5 feet (0.50 yd)) is a more accurate approximation.

    The face I made when reading this was one of disgust, but honestly I have no reason for that other then knowing it just one long noodle which somehow makes me uncomfortable. Honestly, don’t know why.

    That was what I’ve wanted all spaghetti to be ever since I saw it in cartoons as a kid. And yet I’m always disappointed.
