A lot of people just say spaghetti, meaning any long thin noodle. But spaghetti is one size, and then there's thin spaghetti, vermicelli, angel hair...
It's funny, I love AH and always get it when I can but my husband hates it. When he cooks he uses regular noodles but when I do I always use AH. Am I weird?
Nope. I love angel hair. And linguine. And tagliatelle. Plain spaghetti -- I'll certainly eat it, but given a preference, I'd choose a different pasta.
I like a "meatier" (denser) noodle. Angel hair doesn't do it for me, but that doesn't make you weird.
Me too. I don't care for angel hair at all. There used to be a thick spaghetti available that had a tiny hollow hole running through it. That was the very best. I haven't seen it in stores in years here.

Yes, but for most of the existance of many of us, there was spaghetti . Most Americans never heard of much more until the 80s. Nobody talked about "pasta". Nobody even knew there was such a word. I remember when angel hair came out and was trendy.
So when people say "spaghetti", usually they mean the standard size and shape macaroni that has always been on the store shelves, the one your mother fed you near the end of the pay period when she needed something cheap to stretch to feed a family.
I don't eat much pasta, but I like the bowties, especially when the center is chewy. And stuffed shells.
