Broken pasta is good for soups where the noodles should be small, such as chickpea or lentil soup. Otherwise, if you have a pot large enough to hold the noodles, there is no reason to break them.
The reason is I want shorter noodles.
Then buy shorter noodles?
Oh right I'll buy those half-length fettuccine noodles that are definitely a thing that exists.
I break the pasta so it'll fucking fit in the fucking bowl; leave me alone!
And because I don't want to deal with 12" long noodles while eating.
Have you tried just tossing it in whole? It gets soft, then you can fit it in.
Then half of it will be slightly more cooked than the other. Small issue, sure, but bigger issue than not keeping every strand twice as long which doesn't benefit anything whatsoever.
It does if you twirl your fork to collect the spaghetti. The longer stands form a ball of sauce and noodles with only a few stands. If the noodles are half as long, they may not stay twirled, can flop around more, and require more stands to reach the same size. More mess, more work.
Also, I would challenge you to tell which end of the pasta went in first. Actually, it would be a challenge to even find a way to test that...
I like it broken in half. It's more manageable to eat without flinging sauce all over the place.
And before anyone complains that that takes too long, it' takes like 30 seconds. If waiting that long is gonna ruin your pasta night it's already fucked.
Eat real bread, not this sugary garbage
Hey Italians,, how you making spaget?
Stop buying shitty toast bread and you won't want to cut the crust off.
toast bread
In Bongland these loaves are referred to as toast bread, probably because toasting is all they're good for.
Also known as Raw Toast

You should see the look on their face when they are being shitty tourists, which happens, and you throw 外人 at them in the middle of a sentence. As MasterCard would say: "Fucking Priceless!"

I'll get more mad about overcooked pasta then I will if someone breaks spaghetti.
I toss pizza crust. Useless log. Where does that stand?
Understandable, although I prefer to dip mine in something to make them more palatable and save the waste.
I only toss bad pizza crust. Which is a lot of pizza crust...
Jesus Christ.
If nobody sees me, I eat the Pizza crust-first.
Alright, alright. I also expect the downvotes now.
I understand, keep the good bits for last.
Only if you leave one piece of crust to hold the slice.
Believe it or not, straight to jail.
I'll take it. Useless carb sticks
If it tastes like a stick then I would agree. Pizza crust if it's made thicker 2-4cm (1-2in) then it's taste is quite different.
