A weekend without Cookie Jam does not feel right. Fortunately, our beloved match-3 game received a new set of Buzzwords. This week’s questions vary – you can encounter a crossword about summer (“Wear it to the beach”) or vehicles (“Fast boat that skips across the water”). However, be prepared to face also some food-related crosswords. “What a cow feels like after a bumpy road” is a perfect example. Now, it’s time to learn something new. Let’s solve “Long thin Italian pasta.”

It’s time for more food-related facts. This Buzzword takes us to Europe because it is the region where the hero of this guide comes from. So, what is the answer to “Long thin Italian pasta”?
Spaghetti
Of course, we will not leave you with the answer alone. It’s time to learn some interesting facts straight from Wikipedia. Spaghetti is long and cylindrical, made from ground grain and water. Like I mentioned earlier, it comes from Europe, more precisely, as the hint suggests – Italy. It is 25–30 cm (10–12 in) long. The first reports of it date back to the 12th century. However, it became popular in the 19th century.
Spaghetti is commonly used in many dishes. By far the most popular of them is Spaghetti Bolognese. Interestingly, however, the dish is based on Italian cuisine but is not native to that country. Surprisingly, its origin is unknown. It’s speculated that it was created by 20th century Italian immigrants who made their way to America.
With that knowledge, you can face the next question, which is “Many petals, tasty seeds”. Have fun.
