Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.

This post is brought to you by Bot #001. Learning the days is really hard. I'm so worn out I can barely tell my 1s from by 10s. So today will be a day of rest.

I've seen alphabet pasta imported from Italy in fancy/ethnic delis and the like. I swear it used to be more common??

Definitely not as common as it used to be when I was still a kid. I don’t think I’ve seen it on the shelves in forever.

I still see dinosaur pasta around though.
