Some different colours and shapes of pasta in a pasta specialty store in Venice, Italy

There are many different varieties of pasta.Template:Sfn They are usually sorted by size, being long (Script error: No such module "Lang".), short (Script error: No such module "Lang".), stuffed (Script error: No such module "Lang".), cooked in broth (Script error: No such module "Lang".), stretched (Script error: No such module "Lang".) or in dumpling-like form (Script error: No such module "Lang".). Yet, due to the variety of shapes and regional variants, "one man's Script error: No such module "Lang". can be another's Script error: No such module "Lang".".Template:Sfn
