True story: I once had a roommate who would stock up all the kitchen cabinets with pasta. He didn’t really cook it quite that often, but when asked for an explanation, he did say that knowing he had boxes of every available kind at home gave him comfort. With such dedication, I think jokes about pasta would be his favorite.
Pasta has indeed been known as a comfort food for a long time (I mean, if you eat it and don’t just hoard it). Apart from it being high in carbs – we all love some good ol’ carbs every now and then – one major plus point is that you can eat pasta in so many different ways. From all kinds of shapes and cooking styles to a heartwarming variety of sauces, you will never run out of options.
But I also encourage you to experiment. Even if you are not a great cook, there is little you can do to ruin pasta. I, for one, used to sprinkle a spoon of sugar over macaroni when I was a kid. Believe it or not, it tastes amazing. Besides, if pasta puns are not really your thing, this will give you full right to start making pasta sauce puns. It will still count as a pasta joke.
In our collection of funny pasta jokes, nothing is off the menu. You will find some good noodle puns alongside carbonara jokes and much more. And if you are in the mood to experiment, we have even put together some pasta pick-up lines to try on someone you fancy.
