Thick Spaghetti

Thick Spaghetti Box Spaghetti Carbonara
Spaghetti alla Carbonara
Thick Spaghetti, also known as Spaghettoni, is a wider version of an old favorite. Spaghetti are long and round, and the name spaghetti means “lengths of cord” in Italian. Thick Spaghetti originally comes from central and southern Italy, where pasta lovers prefer thicker Spaghetti because they generally eat pasta that is more al dente (“firmly cooked”) than pasta prepared by northern Italians.  Thick Spaghetti retains the traditional long rod shape and full-bodied flavor of Barilla Spaghetti, but as its name indicates, it is thicker, with a more substantial mouth-feel and more deliciously nutty flavor.
