FOOD: Today Is National Pasta Day + More

1. Today Is National Pasta Day, Here Are Five New Stats on Our Pasta Eating

Today is National Pasta Day, so hopefully you're carbo-loading for a marathon tomorrow. Marathons on random Wednesdays in October are totally a thing.

Anyway, a website called National Today ran a survey about our pasta eating habits in honor of the day. 

And here's what they found:

1. 75% of us eat pasta at least once a week, and about 5% eat it DAILY.

2. Only 2.8% of us never eat pasta.

4. And the most popular sauce is marinara, it got 52% of the vote. Alfredo sauce came in second, at 44%.

Well, someone tweeted a joke over the weekend asking for help figuring out what its SKELETON could possibly look like under there. And the official Hamburger Helper account tweeted a response yesterday that was surprisingly creepy.

 They tweeted an "X-ray" look inside the glove, which shows a skeleton with FOUR ARMS controlling the four fingers. Now you know.
