Italian Pasta
Description
It is said that food always brings people together. What brings Italians together, no matter where they live, is the love of good food, health, and the quality of groceries. Marco Polo brought pasta from China to Italy in the 13th century. There are more than 100 varieties of pasta in Italy and one can eat it with vegetables, meat, fish and, of course, with tomatoes. There is even a museum in Rome dedicated to pasta called the Museo delle Paste.
