  • Mark Tewsbury looks Italian. What was that recent American swimmer's name that won so many gold medals at the Beijing olympics he put all other swimmers to shame? Somone know? His diet consisted of a kilo of pasta a day, and a large pizza as a midnight snack. Not a joke.

  • You can ouviousley tell this guy is a brit cuz he says everythin wrong even pasta

  • I love this show! (Except for the puns, they suck)

  • 5:35 Mark Tootsie Roll!! XD!

  • veh~ veh~ =7=

  • @BeastMonkeyOG Some countries do say pasta like 'paaaasta' Most people in australia do :\

  • Let's boil some hot water!

    Pasta-pasta-pasta-pasta-pa-pas­ta-pasta-pasta-pasta-pa-pasta-­pasta-pasta-pasta-pasta-YAY!

  • Spaghetti, or strips of pasta as we know it in the Western world was invented by an Arab in Sicily during the late middle ages. It is assumed, though no one I know is certain, if he got his idea as a traveller from the Chinese along the silk road when it was a major thorough fare for trade during the era of Marco Polo and other explorers. Actual pasta as we know it in Australia, Canada, The Americas and the rest of the globe was invented by an Italian.

  • @Johnnystrychnine man, pasta is wheat flour miixed with water. Do you really think that there was just ONE inventor of it?

  • I like pAHsta too. Fag.

  • Guess what folks. This video is full of misinformation. I had to stop watching it. I find no problem with Mark. He just read his script. There is ample evidence that pasta was consumed in Italy, Greece and elswhere at least 1000 years before Marco Polo returned from China. Also the video says the pasta dries for 14 or 15 hrs. Pasta can be dried for up to 40 hours depending on the shape and drying process.

    Why can't we keep the discusion civil and not call people names? Any questions?

  • He sounds like Ross from friends! David Schwimmer haha

  • Hey. Ignoramus's. That's Mark Tewksbury, Canadian Gold Medal swimmer. He pronounces 'Pasta' correctly, thank-you very much. It's you South North Americans who pronounce it incorrectly.... "Paw-sta" is, frankly, offensive.

  • He's gay just saying I love gay people :3

  • Hmmmmm very interesting in a good way though ; )

  • don't mess with wrong infos! Chinese pasta has ever been different than our, they didn't have the right ingredients, we reinvented this kind of food, and semolino is actually not present in our ingredients... and pls stop saying that pasta is fron Europe, nothing so wrong! Ok, maybe we weren't the first, but who cares, real pasta and food like that is our.

  • I love pasta

  • Spaghettis

    

  • English speakers in a nutshell:

    Canadian guy: We pronounce it right and everyone else sounds weird.

    American guy: We pronounce it right and everyone else sounds stupid.

    English guy: We pronounce everything right. There´s no such thing as a dialect.

    Australian guy: Lol, we´re in the southern hemisphere.

    There, now that that´s settled we can watch a video about flour and egg based foods.

  • If it is supposed to be pronounced "Pahsta" or "Posta" it would be spelled as such. We don't pronounce "past" and "fast" like "pahst" and "fahst". Learn how to pronounce your own language... silly Americans.

  • @motocrossisrelign63 Hmmm for some reason dictionarydotcom wrote that it is pronounced "pah-stuh or pas-tuh" so don't be so silly yourself.

  • @motocrossisrelign63 If we are supposed to pronounce words as they are spelled and vice versa, why isn't "would" spelled as phonetically as "wood"? Or how come the "ou" pair in "pronounce" and "would" aren't pronounced the the same? Learn the complexities of the language.... silly.. whoever you are.

  • the bows are cute!

  • I love the reaction of Americans to correct pronunciation 

  • @clfcr This narrator is Canadian, not American.

  • He can't pronounce process either what a dumb fuck

  • PO-ST-A is how it's pronounced.

  • @ReNoEnVy957

    No, he pronounced it right. He's Canadian and possibly from Montreal, since that is from where the show began.

    Seeing how pasta is mostly in seen in Italian restaurants and we have (obviously) more of a European culture than the Americans, then we pronounce it similarly to how the Italians do.

    If you wanna start pronouncing it like the Chinese, then you might get it better.... but in the meantime, it's PAsta.

  • @ritad426 Oh so hes a Canadian? I'm 100% Italian and he still did pronounce it wrong

  • @ReNoEnVy957 You live in USA do you not? Italians living in Italy are 100 percent Italian.

  • @ReNoEnVy957

    Like I said, it's *similar*. He is still Canadian... and his way if more *similar* to the Italian than PAW-STA, as the Americans would pronounce it

  • @ritad426 No, becuase i go to Italy EVERY SUMMER to visit some family and they still pronounce it PAW-STA

  • @ReNoEnVy957

    Again, I'll have to disagree with you and and probably call you a liar. You're just hearing it wrong.

    Bravo that you "go to Italy every summer", but I live about 2 hours away from Italy and I never heard an Italian nor anyone else in Europe pronounce it PAW-sta.

  • @ritad426 Yeah you live 2 hours away from Itali, i'l buy that bullcrap.

  • wow that was so amazing, and interesting , thank you for posting this video , i wonder how will cheese look behind the scene? lol

  • eh americans invented the car, the plane, computers and the internet.

  • @SuperFablefreak The plane yes, the internet not really, and the Car and internet? just no! bullshit!

  • @clfcr The computer no, but the internet, absolutely. But there are a lot of misunderstanding with inventions. People often remember the wrong parts of inventions. Most people thing Henry Ford invented the car. He didn't invent the car or the assembly line, but he was the first to put those two things together. However he did invent the garage door. Lots of people could claim to have invented the Internet (not Al Gore), but Hedy Lamar has a legit claim to that one.

  • @SuperFablefreak Coca Cola, The Big Mac, Deep fried Twinkie, and diet pills? :)

  • @wrjamescom lol yes our country is full of fatasses

  • @SuperFablefreak Hey, I'm in Mississippi, one of the fattest states. It's funny that here in the USA, the poorest people are also the fattest.

  • @wrjamescom yea im in alabama so we are also one of the fattest states

  • @SuperFablefreak Alabama is 2nd, Mississippi is #1 for the last 6 years in a row. We're number One! Yay! :) Colorado is dead last. Those poor folks just don't have good BBQ.

  • while i was watching this my mom told me to come down and eat and guess what it was? pasta LOL

  • @MsFormula1Fan *Mother, did you know that pasta was invented in china long time ago, happens that...*

    Your mother: oh not again ¬¬

  • pahsta.....

  • wait, so macaronis and raviolis is the correct plural? o i thought they were plural already hmm lol

  • In need of.. pahsta!

  • PASTAAAAA!!!

  • Comment removed

  • If you check The Second Edition of the New Oxford American Dictionary, you'll see that "Pasta" is composed of the syllables "PAS - TA," not "PA - STA." Therefore, the proper pronunciation is PAWS-TAH.

    Learn your ABCs, people.

  • I came here because of Hetalia.

    Italy Veneziano~!

  • I have pasta everyday for nutrition because I am vegetarian.

  • @lsstoon here in italy we eat pasta everyday, vagetarian or not :)

  • @Marknopfler88 I love Italy and Italians! They do everything right there. They make the best pasta in the world. Too bad I've never traveled there. I wish all the time to be able to go there. You are so awesome!

  • @lsstoon i'm waiting for you in Tuscan seaside! :)

  • wow a curtain!!

  • yay i luv pasta!

  • I wanna slap him in the face it was getting really annoying how bad at pronouncing he was

  • It's weird hearing him say "spaghettis" because spaghetti is already plural.

  • "Then the spaghettis go gently down the chute." *Shoots down in random bursts*

  • omg he can't say pasta right run with ur dalmations and save ur dog

  • omg he can't say pasta RRRRIIIGHHHT

    RUN FOR YOUR LIFES

    grab your dog and Dalmatians and hide from this monster.

    do it for the Dalmatians plz

  • @thepokemonletsplayer

    If you're going to correct others, start at home - it's LIVES, nof lifes!

  • why do people dislike this... how is it possible i there is nothing wrong with the video! some people are retarded. they probably mistook thisfor dis i like

  • i wanted to see how the stars were made

  • how it's made should make a heroin episode I NEED ME SUM HAEROIN

  • @gymnast768 thanks for realizing that, but i think China is the 2nd oldest civilization we know of, after Egypt

  • @gymnast768 I think China was far ahead of every civilization until the industrial revolution, which is really recent if you look at the larger scale

  • @lhtony totally agree. only in the late 1900s have they really become a world superpower.

  • @gymnast768 You mean late 1800s, the Qing dynasty was quite corrupt by the end.

  • @gymnast768 I agree

  • @gymnast768

    Well perhaps not the OLDEST civilization in the world but still you are right. Chinese history, inventions etc are rather mindblowing.

  • @Hypnotized81 by civilization, i mean a society that has both grown, prospered, and remained so. china is certaintly the oldest civilization by those views

  • @gymnast768 youre a behind

  • @longfootbuddy for informing people so they're not mindlessly wrong like the moron hosting the show? totally

  • @gymnast768 youll believe whatever your history books tell you

  • @longfootbuddy indeed i do because the people who write them (at least the AP texts) are absolutley brilliant, and all the information has either been proven or concluded from years of research and close observation and historical artifacts and references, and it all seems to make sense and add up so their conclusions on history must be pretty spot on. so i do believe whats written in the textbooks. do i always like it? no. but i nearly always believe what they say. theres nothing wrong with it

  • @gymnast768 like i said, youll believe whatever they tell you...what are you, 18 years old?

  • @gymnast768 And guess who discovered america before europeans? China... And after them? Vikings... And after them? Europeans... (and yeah, I'm from Europe)... :D

  • @gymnast768 it's not true, china made spaghetti with rice, not with wheat... rice spaghetti are cooked in a different way, they have nothing to share with italian spaghetti, they share only the shape, but rice spaghetti and wheat spaghetti are similar like a rope and a snake are

  • @Marknopfler88 And Chuck Norris made pasta with corn!

  • @kdmq of course :D

  • @Marknopfler88 Northern China used wheat to make noodles. Wheat and egg. Southern China made noodles out of rice because rice grows easily in the South while wheat grows predominantly in the North. Even in cuisine, a lot of the mantou and staples of Northern Chinese involve wheat. That is also what the Mongolians were introduced in the North and it is probably that Marco Polo did in fact had wheat-noodles and I would surprised if he also had rice noodles.

  • @andrewfyip that's true, but i only wanted to say that in Italy we had an independent development of pasta and spaghetti, not a follower of China tradition. The way of baking and cooking of chinese and italian pasta is very different, and pasta was eaten MUCH before Marco Polo returned in Venice. It's just a legend that Marco Polo brought back pasta from China; remember that pasta is more eaten in the South than in the North, where Venice is. But the real deep tradition of pasta is in the South

  • @Marknopfler88 I just wanted to give that little cultural lesson. The whole story of pasta from China to Italy is pretty much a legend and for those who can't find a difference between Italian pasta and Chinese mian...well, they're no foodie. :) Cultures develop differently and pasta is no exception!

  • @andrewfyip  i really appreciated yout explanations, I respect Chinese people because they have a real, strong gastronomic culture, just like Italy.

  • @Marknopfler88 Let me guess, you are employed for a major pasta manufacturer in Italy. And you are right if you work for a pasta manufacturer that pasta has many origins.

  • @Johnnystrychnine no, i simply like History and Gastronomy. And i laugh if I read that a mistical Arab man inventend pasta in a magical, defined moment. How can there be a unique origin of a food made by only two, simple ingredients?

  • 1:55 is the best part

  • "Why would people who eat with sticks invent something you need a fork to eat."

    -Tony Soprano

  • PASSTA EH

  • @MosinDisciple HAHAHA

  • lol @ everyone here on this video complaining about the proper pronounciation and origin of pasta. Who gives a shit? Its food and it tastes good!

  • Marco Polo did not bring pasta to Italy. Italians already had a name for pasta. In fact, when Marco Polo describe the chinese counterpart, he calls it pasta. Pasta in its nearly modern form came from the Arabs a couple of hundred years before.

  • brass holes

  • It's funny how these labeled with Italian flag and Italian wording (at 5:00) while made in Canada.... I guess you won't know the difference until you taste them (or until you taste real Italian pasta)

  • It's pronounced "paw-sta, naw-pa-lees." I don't see why you feel the need to redub how its made!

  • I'm gonna start say "spaghetteze"!!

  • David Scwimmer much?

  • This guy does a pretty good Napoleon Dynamite impression

  • I'm Italian and I say Paw Staw. xD

  • Pizza is Chinese in origin as well :)

  • @SillyBinBin Yup! Then Marco Polo nabbed it and passed it off as an Italian invention. Silly Marco Polo :)

  • Passssssssssssssssssstah. Yum.

  • i liked him better in Killswitch Engage
